Question 17474 — medicine

Summary

Mr. Jean-Pierre Taite draws the attention of the Minister of Labor, Health and Solidarity to the future of medical gynecology in France. If we can only rejoice at the reestablishment of this specialty in 2003 which led to the training of more than 1000 new doctors, it is clear that medical gynecology is still threatened and women's health remains in danger, mainly for young women. Gynecology medical is essential: contraception, screening and monitoring of cancers or STIs, diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis, support for menopause, abortion, etc. The number of positions created is far from meeting needs and does not compensate for retirements. In 2007, there were 1,945 practicing medical gynecologists; in 2023, for more than 30 million women of consultation age, there will be only 816 and 11 departments in France has none! The Committee for the Defense of Medical Gynecology has requested a meeting with the ministry. He supports their request and wishes to know what the Minister's intentions are to save this specialty which accompanies women throughout their lives.
