About the Journal
Obstetrics and gynecology stands at the center of women's health — where preventive care meets surgical intervention, where high-risk pregnancies demand critical decision-making, and where reproductive autonomy depends on evidence-based medicine. Kmed Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology exists for the obstetricians, gynecologists, and maternal health researchers advancing that care every day.
We publish original research, surgical case reports, clinical outcome studies, and systematic reviews across the full breadth of obstetric and gynecologic practice. Whether you are reporting maternal outcomes from a high-risk pregnancy unit, documenting a rare gynecologic malignancy, or evaluating contraceptive uptake in an underserved population — if it strengthens the evidence base for women's health, it belongs here. Every submission undergoes rigorous peer review, and every published article is freely accessible to the global obstetric and gynecologic community.
