Implications of Pregnancy Attitudes and Experiences in Graduate Medical Education: A Call for Enhanced Support Systems

Introduction

The landscape of medical education has significantly evolved over the decades, with a notable increase in female participation. Today, nearly 50% of medical students are women, and many of them navigate the challenges of starting families during their residency and fellowship training years. The study titled Changes in attitudes, beliefs, and experiences related to pregnancy during Graduate Medical Education training from 2005 to 2021 provides valuable insights into the changing attitudes and experiences of medical residents regarding pregnancy.

Recommendations for Practitioners

Future studies should aim to identify specific factors contributing to these complications and develop targeted interventions to mitigate them.
