title: [Women, body and soul--psychosomatics in obstetrics and gynecology].
abstract: It has been shown that many of the physical complaints in obstetrics and gynecology patients may be attributed to their exposure to stress, which is associated with our modern lifestyle. Despite the notion that stress may be a causative factor in a variety of such complaints, the obstetrics and gynecology establishment is ambivalent on accepting the psychosomatic aspects of an ailment. This is mainly due to differences in the validity standards between Obstetrics and gynecology practitioners and mental health professionals.
