Declining or Waning

While the journal continues to thrive in many areas, certain themes appear to be waning in frequency and emphasis in recent publications. This decline may reflect changing research priorities or shifts in clinical focus.
  1. Traditional Obstetric Practices:
    The focus on conventional approaches to obstetrics, such as routine interventions during labor, has seen a decline as evidence-based practices emphasize individualized and less invasive methods.

    The interest in pharmacological treatments for conditions like menstrual disorders is diminishing, possibly due to a shift towards lifestyle modifications and integrative approaches.

    There is a noticeable decrease in single-center studies, as the journal increasingly prioritizes multicenter and larger cohort studies that provide more generalizable data.
  4. Historical Perspectives in Gynecology and Obstetrics:
