SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN OBSTETRICS AND GYNECOLOGY. Sustainable development in obstetrics and gynecology considers the impact of environmental pollutants, such as endocrine disruptors, pesticides and heavy metals, on the health of women and newborns. These toxic substances have deleterious effects on fertility and fetal development and can cause cancers, chronic, serious, and transmissible pathologies. The french 1000 days program highlights the importance of protecting the environment of pregnant women and young children from the first stages of pregnancy. To reduce the ecological footprint of medical practices, recommendations highlight the need to optimize the use of equipment and products in maternity, while limiting waste and energy consumption. The Ecomaternité initiative (AP-HP) encourages the implementation of eco-responsible practices and aims to raise awareness among caregivers while educating families on environmental issues. It is also essential to strengthen the training of health professionals in environmental health and to promote strict regulation of toxic substances to guarantee quality, sustainable and environmentally friendly care.
