OB-GYN Medical Terminology Guide (English & Spanish)

A clear, practical, and bilingual OB-GYN reference for today’s healthcare professionals and students.

Obstetrics and Gynecology is one of the most communication-sensitive areas of medicine, where clear language is essential for discussing reproductive health, pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care. Medical Terminology Guide: Obstetrics & Gynecology Edition was created to support nurses, nursing students, medical assistants, physicians, interpreters, and allied health professionals who care for Spanish-speaking patients in OB-GYN settings.

This guide includes 200+ essential OB-GYN medical terms and patient communication phrases presented in a clean, modern, and easy-to-navigate format. Each entry features the English term, its Spanish translation, and a simple phonetic pronunciation to help non-Spanish-speaking staff communicate accurately and with confidence.

Whether you’re reviewing symptoms such as pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, contractions, or pregnancy-related concerns — or explaining exams and procedures like Pap smears, ultrasounds, labor induction, or cesarean delivery — this guide keeps the OB-GYN vocabulary you need accessible, organized, and ready for real-world clinical use.
