This section is for you and others interested or involved in your care. All the information comes from up-to-date and carefully-checked guidance for doctors, but it's been written in a way that makes it clearer for the non-medical person. You can find out more about how this information is produced by reading About RCOG guidelines and parallel information for the public.
The RCOG was certificated against the Information Standard on 1 March 2011 for the production of the patient information. The two documents marked with an asterisk have been published by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence.
We welcome feedback from members of the public or from health professionals on our patient information. Please email any comments to: Karen Cheung.
The RCOG is occasionally asked by external organisations to endorse or support their documents or policies in which the RCOG has had no involvement. This policy document sets out the criteria that will be applied in processing requests for endorsement or support.
Information for patients on revalidation - how to know if your doctor is up-to-date - is available here.
