Evaluating the Effectiveness of Digital Health Apps in Managing Obstetrics and Gynaecology Disorders

Abstract

Digital health applications (apps) have transformed healthcare delivery by increasing accessibility, raising awareness, and promoting health self-management. These technologies offer particular promise in Obstetrics and Gynaecology (OB-GYN) care, addressing conditions such as gestational diabetes, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), and postpartum depression. However, while digital health apps offer advantages, they also present significant risks when used as substitutes for professional medical care.
