We analyzed scriptural and archeologic sources of information concerning gynaecology and obstetrics as practiced in ancient Egypt. Knowledge of anatomy was rudimentary but precocious diagnosis of pregnancy was practiced. An obstetrical chair had been used since the VIth dynasty. The Egyptians were the first to describe prolapsus of the genital organs. The pessary was a known treatment. Spermicidal mixtures were used for contraception.
我们分析了古埃及妇产科实践的文献和考古信息来源。解剖学知识尚显基础，但已能对怀孕进行早熟诊断。自第六王朝起就开始使用产科椅。埃及人是首个描述生殖器官脱垂的。子宫托是一种已知的治疗方法。杀精混合物被用于避孕。
