ACOG Guidelines

Meaning

ACOG Guidelines are authoritative clinical practice recommendations and standards of care issued by the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. These documents synthesize the most current scientific evidence to provide structured, evidence-based approaches for managing obstetric and gynecologic conditions. They serve as a foundational reference for clinicians, promoting uniformity in patient care and optimizing outcomes in areas such as contraception, reproductive health, and menopausal hormone therapy. Adherence to these established protocols helps ensure a consistent, high standard of medical practice across the domain of women’s hormonal health.
