While both deal with a female's body, there are distinct differences between obstetrics and gynecology. Obstetrics are strictly the elements of prenatal care for a pregnant mother, including childbirth. Gynecology is the medical care of female reproductive organs.

If you do optometry in university can you further specialize in obstetrics and gynocology?

No, if you pursue a degree in optometry, you cannot further specialize in obstetrics and gynecology, as these fields are distinct and require different educational paths. Optometry focuses on eye care and vision, while obstetrics and gynecology pertain to women's reproductive health. To specialize in obstetrics and gynecology, you would need to obtain a medical degree (MD or DO) and complete a residency in that field.
