This book provides primary care clinicians, researchers, and
educators with a guide that helps facilitate comprehensive,
evidenced-based healthcare of women and gender diverse populations.
Many primary care training programs in the United States lack
formalized training in women's health, or if they do, the allotted
time for teaching is sparse. This book addresses this learning gap
with a solid framework for any program or individual interested in
learning about or teaching women's health. It can serve as a quick
in-the-clinic reference between patients, or be used to steer
curricular efforts in medical training programs, particularly
tailored to internal medicine, family medicine, gynecology,
nursing, and advanced practice provider programs. Organized to
cover essential topics in women's health and gender based care,
this text is divided into eight sections: Foundations of Women's
Health and Gender Based Medicine, Gynecologic Health and Disease,
Breast Health and Disease, Common Medical Conditions, Chronic Pain
Disorders, Mental Health and Trauma, Care of Selected Populations
(care of female veterans and gender diverse patients), and
Obstetric Medicine. Using the Maintenance of Certification (MOC)
and American Board of Internal Medicine blueprints for examination
development, authors provide evidence-based reviews with several
challenge questions and annotated answers at the end of each
chapter. The epidemiology, pathophysiology, evaluation, diagnosis,
treatment, and prognosis of all disease processes are detailed in
each chapter. Learning objectives, summary points, certain exam
techniques, clinical pearls, diagrams, and images are added to
enhance reader's engagement and understanding of the material.
Written by experts in the field, Sex and Gender-Based Women's
Health is designed to guide all providers, regardless of training
discipline or seniority, through comprehensive outpatient women's
health and gender diverse care.
