Abstract

We are delighted to come out with another issue of NJOG,we are open to your suggestions, feedback and comments. Our goal is to see this journal indexed and attract maximum number of clinicians, researchers, public health experts in obstetrics and gynecology and sub- specialties. To ease communication and encourage new contributors we have made it more user friendly with only online submissions. Guidelines already exist and our technical staff are ready to help you, if any concerns arise.

This issue we have tried to provide fair and insightful content by variety of articles. In order to reduce the gap between research and practiceoriginal research articles, short communications and case reports are featured.  Our readers would have access to the latest research in our field, and hopefully it would stimulate all of you to write more, explore and share with our colleagues your scientific work. “Knowledge is power, information is liberating, education is the premise of progress in every society, in every family” Kofi Anan former secretary general United Nations. These powerful words said many years back, have been the foundation of my curiosity. Learning is a life long process, hopefully as the days pass our journal also will become better and better. But this can only be possible with your contribution and feedback. Together we can make a difference in women’s health. Having laws for gender equity is not enough, we all can make a difference together!

We have colleagues through- out the country and abroad who are improving women’s health every single day. So many of us have faced challenges and so many success and failure stories need to be shared too. Research helps us to learn what works and what does not, how best to deliver proven interventions, what barriers exist in our country context, surely, we are unique in so many ways.

We work but we spend very little time to document things. We urge all our colleague please share with us your stories, your cases, your challenges. This is the only way to empower our colleagues as well as share latest evidence- based practices. We are trying to generate excitementand challenges for research ,write , share , reflect and promote women’s health and make a difference for women’s health equity. I look forward hearing from you, your thoughts and ideas. Please feel free to write to me. Enjoy reading the issue...
