[@JEFFLAKRONIA1]

Try "Obstetrics by Ten Teachers" or "Oxford Textbook of Obstetrics and Gynecology" They are very helpful and well-organized books

[@DrAdnan]

I’ll have to look into those- thanks for the recommendations!

OME was very good for OBGYN basics understanding bread and butter OBGYN, in addition it had one of the best explanations of mullerian progenitor cancers of the uterus/tubes/endometrium. It is super basic IMO and if you obly do OME youll pass shelf, but not honors.

Currently going through this rotation now...........labour is intensive both for the soon to be mom and myself😆..............its the waiting part, that's what I dislike the most(along with the lower backpains and general fatigue)..........I'd have to wait at least 3-4 hours to get to perform at least one delivery......this is after like 6 hours prepping and attending classes............but still happy at the end of the day ........ just u gotta listen to your body when it's telling u to rest lol

[@DrAdnan]

Hahaha that’s funny. Hope the rotation is going well- you got this!

Overall a great video in terms of explaining what to expect. I won't lie though, when upperclassmen start saying things like "Know this...Know that..." (8:10) it gets a little overwhelming and frustrating. It sounds like less of general tips and makes it seem like you're expected to know all of that off the bat...I understand you're probably not, but from a med student receiving this info, we can't help but race to the textbooks to learn these things, even before we've started rotations. It sometimes reinforces this "High Yield" learning which, maybe you can comment on this, may not always be best to do in the setting of patient care.

[@DrAdnan]

Thank you! Sorry, it can seem overwhelming, but there’s a lot of learning that goes on over the weeks you’re on obgyn and a few of the students were highlighting some of the many the high yield topics that would be good to know earlier rather than later. With the infinitely growing scientific and medical knowledge out there, there’s only so much time, and to be efficient I feel it’s a good idea to focus on the high yield (usually the most important things because they’re the most common, relevant, etc), and then build on that with lower yield knowledge. This strategy is popular because it gets you the most bang for your buck there’s a lot of rare diseases that doctors don’t hear about, for example, but super specialized doctors find fascinating and researchers spend decades trying to understand. Focusing more on lower yield pathologies can be fun, but would detract from the net benefit to patient care. Plus in med school you’re focusing on getting those big high yield pieces in, but as you progress through residency, fellowship, and beyond you’ll fill in those smaller details and cover rarer, less common topics in more depth.

I appreciated that. I like knowing some key topics I could before starting.
