This manual is designed to assist those who provide health care to women in military settings where gynecologic consultation is not readily available and resources are limited.

The manual is not all-inclusive and is not intended to replace good clinical judgment nor in-depth textbooks which should be consulted whenever appropriate.

As in most areas of medicine, there may be more than one way to deal with any particular medical problem. For simplicity, one basic approach is usually given here. There may be other approaches which will give very good or superior results.

Approved for public release, distribution unlimited.
