A comprehensive reference on the female genital organs and the physiology and care of the puerperal state.

This edition presents clear descriptions, clinical guidance, and practical detail for students and practitioners alike.

From anatomy to application, you’ll find precise information on the labia, clitoris, vagina, uterus, and related structures, along with the arterial and venous supply, nerves, and drainage that clinicians use in practice. The book also covers the postpartum period, including involution of the uterus, lochia, and standard management strategies after delivery, with step-by-step guidance for care and monitoring.
Key topics include:

Detailed anatomy and relationships of the female genital organs
Postpartum physiology, involution, and normal recovery timelines
Practical postpartum care: cleansing, dressings, catheter and bowel/bladder management
Common puerperal complications, infections, and their treatment
A formal appendix with a structured case-record form for clinical documentation

Ideal for medical students, nurses, midwives, and obstetricians seeking a grounded, procedural reference for both anatomy and postpartum care.
