gynaecology
Gynaecology or gynecology〔See American and British English spelling differences. ''Gynecology'' is the American spelling, but it is also common in international contexts, e.g. International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics and (International Society of Ultrasound in Obstetrics and Gynecology ).〕 is the medical practice dealing with the health of the female reproductive systems (vagina, uterus and ovaries) and the breasts. Literally, outside medicine, it means "the science of women". Its counterpart is andrology, which deals with medical issues specific to the male reproductive system.
Almost all modern gynaecologists are also obstetricians (see ''obstetrics and gynaecology''). In many areas, the specialties of gynaecology and obstetrics overlap.
==Etymology==
The word "gynaecology" comes from the Greek γυνή ''gyne''. "woman" and ''-logia'', "study."
