Welcome to GESTICON 2026

Dear Colleagues,

It gives us immense pleasure to host the mid-term conference of the Kerala Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecology-GESTICON 2026. This international obstetric conclave is designed to enhance knowledge, refine our skills, and strengthen the quality of care we provide to patients.

In today's evolving clinical landscape, it is essential that we remain well-versed in protocols and best practices, ensuring safety for both our patients and ourselves as practitioners. With this vision, we have curated a comprehensive scientific program aligned with these objectives.

We warmly invite you to join us for this enriching academic and networking experience. Your participation will be invaluable in making this conference a meaningful and successful event.

Warm Regards,
