Become the doctor every woman trusts through every stage of her life.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (F.G.O.) is a 12-month, internationally accredited online women's-health fellowship from Virtued Academy International, awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, UK. It builds structured competence across the full Gyn & Obs spectrum — menstrual disorders, PCOS and reproductive endocrinology, antenatal, labor and postpartum care, gynecologic emergencies, oncology, ART and high-risk obstetrics — so MBBS and post-MBBS doctors can confidently manage women's health through every stage of life.

It carries 120 Global CPD points, includes lifetime access to 52 modules and 16 clinical case discussions, and lets you use the F.G.O. suffix after your name on successful completion.

Gynecology and obstetrics (Gyn & Obs, or OB-GYN) is the specialty caring for women's reproductive health and pregnancy. Gynecology covers menstrual disorders, PCOS, contraception, infections, benign and malignant conditions and menopause; obstetrics covers pregnancy, antenatal care, labor and delivery, and postpartum care. An OB-GYN assesses and manages these conditions, monitors pregnancies and counsels on fertility and reproductive wellness.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics builds this structured competence for practising doctors.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics is awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, UK, and delivered by Virtued Academy International, an autonomous organisation registered under the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, Government of India. It is internationally accredited by IAOTH, UK and IRAP, and every certificate carries a QR code and serial number for independent verification.

Yes — women's health is one of the most in-demand yet underserved directions after MBBS, because PCOS, menstrual disorders, contraception, antenatal queries and postpartum concerns are among the most frequent clinical presentations everywhere, and rising maternal age and gestational complications add complexity. A doctor confident in Gyn & Obs builds a trusted, differentiated women's-health practice.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics gives working doctors this structured competence and a recognised credential without leaving practice.

The most accessible route to structured Gyn & Obs competence after MBBS — without a scarce MD/MS or DNB seat — is a dedicated women's-health fellowship. The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (F.G.O.) gives you 12 months of case-based training in menstrual and reproductive health, antenatal and postpartum care and gynecologic conditions, so you can run a confident women's-health OPD.

It is a professional-development fellowship, not an MD/MS/DNB degree, so it complements rather than replaces postgraduate specialisation and does not by itself register you as a gynecologist or authorise independent obstetric surgery — but it is a practical way to build real women's-health capability.

For most GPs and primary-care doctors, a Gyn & Obs fellowship after MBBS is worth it: women's-health complaints are extremely common and often referred out, so structured competence in menstrual disorders, PCOS, antenatal care and reproductive health lets you retain and manage more patients and build women's-wellness services.

Actual income depends on your setting and patient base, and Virtued Academy International does not guarantee any specific outcome. What the fellowship reliably provides is structured competence and a verifiable, internationally accredited credential.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (F.G.O.) is exclusively for MBBS doctors and above — MBBS (intern or graduate), and post-MBBS qualifications such as MD, MS, DM, MCh and DNB, including international MBBS-equivalent graduates, subject to internal eligibility verification. Final-year MBBS students and interns can also enrol and begin immediately.

AYUSH doctors should take the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (Integrated Medicine); allied-health professionals are welcome in the open-to-all Certificate in Gynecology & Obstetrics.

Yes. Interns and final-year MBBS students can enrol and start learning right away, studying alongside their duties thanks to the fully online, self-paced format. At certificate issuance, interns submit a temporary registration/licence and graduates their permanent licence, along with the MBBS degree documents.

Yes. Foreign medical graduates can enrol in the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics even before clearing the FMGE, and all lectures, case studies, assessments and certification are unaffected. The optional in-hospital observership in India requires FMGE clearance; if you hold a valid licence abroad, a UK or USA observership can be arranged instead.

The standard Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (F.G.O.) is exclusively for MBBS and post-MBBS doctors. If you are an AYUSH doctor (BAMS, BHMS, BUMS, Siddha), the right route is the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (Integrated Medicine), which offers the same 12-month depth and 120 CPD points, framed for your scope of practice.

Allied-health professionals are welcome in the open-to-all Certificate in Gynecology & Obstetrics.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics is among the most valuable courses to do after MBBS, because women's-health cases are extremely common yet frequently referred out for lack of confidence. As a 12-month online fellowship with 120 CPD points and an optional observership, it lets you build genuine Gyn & Obs depth and retain more patients, without leaving practice.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics curriculum spans the full women's-health spectrum: menstrual disorders, PCOS, contraception and reproductive endocrinology; antenatal care, labor management, delivery and postpartum care; gynecologic emergencies, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), STIs and benign gynecologic conditions; gynecologic oncology; assisted reproductive technology (ART) and fertility; high-risk obstetrics; urogynecology; advanced gynecologic imaging; and menopause, HRT and women's wellness.

It is delivered as 52 modules with 16 clinical case discussions, with the live module list and durations kept current inside the learning platform.

You will learn structured management of menstrual disorders and PCOS, contraception and reproductive endocrinology, gynecologic emergencies, PID and STIs, benign gynecologic conditions and gynecologic oncology workup, plus antenatal, labor, delivery and postpartum care and high-risk obstetrics — with clear clinical pathways and counselling scripts rather than fragmented knowledge.

Yes — these are core pillars of the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics. You learn structured frameworks for PCOS and menstrual disorders, complete antenatal care, labor and postpartum protocols, and high-risk obstetric monitoring (including gestational diabetes and hypertension), supported by antenatal-care templates and gynecologic-emergency frameworks in the practice toolkit.

The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics has a duration of 12 months, structured as a guided pathway. Because you get lifetime access, the 12 months is a minimum guide rather than a hard deadline — you can finish faster or take longer at your own pace, and Virtued does not charge any extension fees.

Yes — it is a fully online gynecology and obstetrics course with pre-recorded video lectures, downloadable notes and self-assessment quizzes, built for working doctors: roughly up to two hours of study per week, at your own pace, with no fixed timings and lifetime access.

Clinical observership is optional and available for this post-MBBS fellowship, with one-month placements arrangeable across India, the UK and the USA; you also gain extensive practical understanding through the 16 clinical case discussions and expert Q&A inside the LMS. If you prefer a hospital of your choice, Virtued can provide a recommendation letter at no additional cost.

The fellowship includes a Gynecology & Obstetrics Practice Toolkit — case discussions, antenatal-care templates, gynecologic-emergency frameworks, counselling scripts and a women's-health OPD setup guide — plus monthly live doubt sessions, 24/7 academic Q&A support, and an opportunity to publish chapters in ISBN-registered gynecology and obstetrics books via Virtued's in-house publication division.

A diploma such as the DGO (Diploma in Gynecology & Obstetrics) is a university-affiliated postgraduate programme with formal exams and limited seats, whereas the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics from Virtued Academy International is a structured, case-based programme built around practical women's-health competence, delivered fully online with lifetime access, so you can upskill alongside your existing practice.

Most doctors searching for a Gyn & Obs qualification want practice-ready women's-health skills, which is what this fellowship delivers, with 120 CPD points and an internationally accredited, verifiable credential; it is a professional-development fellowship rather than a statutory postgraduate degree.

Virtued Academy International does not offer a separate ‘diploma’ tier. The same depth doctors look for in a Gyn & Obs diploma is covered by two tracks: the 3-month Certificate in Gynecology & Obstetrics (30 CPD) for a focused foundation, and the 12-month Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (120 CPD) for comprehensive training with an optional observership.

An MD, MS or DNB in Obstetrics & Gynaecology is a full postgraduate medical qualification obtained through NEET-PG, with limited seats and years of residency, and it confers specialist registration including surgical and delivery privileges. The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (F.G.O.) is a 12-month professional-development fellowship that builds structured women's-health knowledge and a recognised CPD credential; it is not a substitute for an MD/MS/DNB and does not by itself register you as a gynecologist or authorise you to perform deliveries or gynecologic surgery independently.

Doctors typically choose the fellowship for fast, practice-oriented women's-health competence without waiting for a scarce PG seat.

Choose the Certificate in Gynecology & Obstetrics (C.G.O, 30 CPD, 3 months) for an accessible foundation open to every healthcare professional. Choose the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (F.G.O., 120 CPD, 12 months) if you are an MBBS or post-MBBS doctor who wants comprehensive women's-health training with an optional observership. Many learners start with the certificate and progress to the fellowship.

Both fellowships share the same 12-month structure, 120 CPD points and clinical breadth, but they are matched to different audiences: the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (F.G.O.) is for MBBS and post-MBBS doctors, while the Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics (Integrated Medicine) is for AYUSH doctors, framed for their scope of practice. The fee is the same; the framing and suffix differ.

Most online women's-health courses are narrow or stop at a basic certificate. The Fellowship in Gynecology & Obstetrics is a 12-month, internationally accredited fellowship awarded by Virtued Eduversity, London, with 120 CPD points, lifetime access to 52 modules across the full Gyn & Obs spectrum and 16 case discussions, a practice toolkit, an optional observership and a QR-verifiable credential — built for doctors who want comprehensive, verifiable women's-health upskilling.

Virtued's online/blended programmes operate independently of NMC approval requirements and are offered transparently as professional development, with international accreditation from IAOTH, UK and IRAP.

It is not an NMC-recognised medical degree or postgraduate qualification, and on its own it does not grant a licence to practise as a specialist gynecologist or to perform deliveries or gynecologic surgery independently. Apply the learning within your existing scope of practice and confirm requirements with the relevant councils or medical boards in your region.

This CPD programme is an independent professional development initiative, conducted outside UGC, AICTE, NMC, NCAHP, Ofqual, OfS, QAA frameworks, acknowledging their jurisdictions, without implying a practising licence, qualification to practise, statutory recognition, licensure eligibility, or equivalence to qualifications governed by regulatory bodies.

For fellowship programmes, submit your MBBS degree marksheets and degree certificate, plus either a temporary registration/licence (if you are an intern) or a permanent licence (if you have completed your degree).
