curricular content. During the eight week period, we hope to provide you with a
foundation of knowledge and skills to care for the health needs of women.
You will be exposed to normal and patholgic conditions associated with female reproductive
organs such as menstruation, conception, and pregnancy. You will also be introduced
to broader concepts of primary care for women with emphasis on preventive
care and periodic screening. This will be accomplished by direct patient contact
