Welcome Message

A woman’s reproductive cycle, from menarche to menopause and beyond, is marked by a host of emotional, psychosomatic, and social challenges. Despite this reality, a significant gap remains between gynecological and medical management, patient knowledge, and mental health support. This conference aims to bridge that gap by fostering a multidisciplinary dialogue that prioritizes a "whole-person" approach to women’s reproductive and endocrine health. The IACBT warmly invites experts and delegates to celebrate and deliberate on an emerging interdisciplinary field, address the "silent" psychological burden of reproductive health often overlooked in traditional clinical settings, and improve clinical understanding and patient outcomes.

Dr Nimisha Kumar, Ph.D President, IACBT
About the Conference

Connecting Minds. Transforming Women's Health.

Women's health extends far beyond biology. Every stage of a woman's life — from adolescence and reproductive years to pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, and beyond — is shaped by a complex interplay of biological, psychological, emotional, social, and behavioural factors.

The 1st International Psycho‑Gynaecology Conference (IPGC) 2026 brings together global experts and multidisciplinary professionals to explore the evolving science of psycho‑gynaecology and advance integrated approaches to women's healthcare.

"Join us as we move Beyond Biology — towards a future where psychological well‑being is recognised as an essential component of comprehensive women's health."

Conference Objectives

Awareness & Understanding

Promote awareness of the psychological aspects of women's reproductive health.

Early Identification

Encourage early identification and intervention for mental health concerns.

Multidisciplinary Collaboration

Strengthen collaboration between medical and mental health professionals.

Research & Practice

Share advances in research and clinical practice with the field.

Integrated Models of Care

Develop integrated models of care for women across the lifespan.

Compassionate, Evidence-Based Care

Support compassionate, evidence-based healthcare approaches.

Why Psycho‑Gynaecology?

Understanding the woman beyond the disease.

A woman's health journey is influenced by much more than physiological changes. Emotional experiences, relationships, stress, coping mechanisms, social environment, and psychological resilience play a crucial role in health outcomes. Psycho‑Gynaecology acknowledges this interconnectedness and aims to integrate psychological understanding with gynaecological and reproductive healthcare. Key areas include:

Maternal mental health Pregnancy‑related emotional challenges Postpartum depression & anxiety Infertility‑related psychological distress Pregnancy loss & grief Birth trauma Menopause & emotional well‑being Sexual health & relationships Psychological aspects of gynaecological disorders Behavioural interventions in women's healthcare
