- Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): ovulation management and stimulation optimization, with long-term monitoring when needed
- Recurrent pregnancy loss: workup and individualized management
- Women’s reproductive health across the lifespan: irregular menstruation (including adolescents), Müllerian anomalies, diminished ovarian reserve, and ectopic pregnancy
