OBGYN Roles and Career Expectations Across the U.S.: Responsibilities, Opportunities, and Evolving Demand
OBGYN jobs play a vital role in women’s health by combining the fields of obstetrics—care during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period—and gynaecology, which focuses on reproductive health outside of pregnancy.
What Do OBGYN Jobs Involve?
OBGYNs, or obstetrician-gynecologists, specialise in two fundamental areas of women’s health: obstetrics, which involves care during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period; and gynaecology, which focuses on reproductive health outside of pregnancy. These dual specialisations make OBGYNs essential providers throughout various stages of a woman’s life.
They offer a broad range of services, such as:
-
Preventive care and routine health screenings
-
Fertility assessments and treatments
-
Contraceptive counselling and family planning
-
Cancer screenings (e.g., cervical and ovarian)
-
Surgical procedures, including hysterectomies and C-sections
-
Menopause support and hormonal management
In many cases, OBGYNs also serve as primary care providers for women—particularly those aged 15 to 45—forming trusted, long-term relationships that support overall physical and reproductive wellbeing.

FAQ’s
1. Is an OB-GYN a good career?

2. What will an OB-GYN do?
Ans. An OB-GYN specializes in both obstetrics, providing care during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period, and gynaecology, focusing on reproductive health and diseases specific to women and girls. Most OB-GYNs integrate both specialities, offering comprehensive women's health care.
3. Who is eligible for H-1B sponsorship?
