Patient information

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.

All the information has been produced by the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, apart from the three documents marked with an asterisk. These have been published by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence. You can find out more about how this information is produced by reading About RCOG guidelines and parallel information for the public.

If you would like further details about any of this patient information, please contact Lucy Arnold: larnold@rcog.org.uk.
