Gynae is a commonly used short name for a specialist in the fields of Obstetrics and Gynaecology ( also known as O&G or OBGYN ). Gynecologists and obstetricians are focused on women’s health. They are consulted for low fertility treatment including IVF and artificial insemination, pregnancy and childbirth, removal of fibroids and ovarian cysts, menopause, hormone replacement therapy or HRT and endometriosis.
