Barriers to pursuing a surgical residency include the challenges of family planning and work\u2013life balance during training.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A systematic literature search of articles published between June 2012 and December 2022 in the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases was performed in January 2023 according to PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta\u2010Analysis). Studies were included if they evaluated pregnancy and peripartum experience and\/or outcomes amongst orthopedic surgeons or trainees.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Eighteen studies were included. Up to 67.3% of female orthopedic surgeons and trainees and 38.7% of their male counterparts delayed childbearing during residency. The most reported reasons for this delay included career choice as an orthopedic surgeon, residency training, and reputational concerns among faculty or co\u2010residents. Infertility ranged from 17.0% to 30.4% in female orthopedic surgeons and up to 31.2% suffered obstetric complications. Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) resulted in 12.4%\u201356.3% of successful pregnancies. Maternity and paternity leaves ranged from 1 to 11\u00a0weeks for trainees with more negative attitudes associated with maternal leave.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Female orthopedic trainees and attending delay childbearing, experience higher rates of obstetric complications, and more stigma associated with pregnancy compared to their male colleagues. Program and institutional policies regarding maternity and paternity leave are variable across programs, and therefore, attention should be directed toward standardizing policies.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/wjs.12179","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,10]],"date-time":"2024-04-10T17:14:30Z","timestamp":1712769270000},"page":"1025-1036","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Pregnancy and infertility in orthopedics: A review of the current state"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"48","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-1133-7277","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Nazanin","family":"Kermanshahi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Midwestern University Arizona College of Osteopathic Medicine  Glendale Arizona USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hayden","family":"Hartman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Lincoln Memorial University DeBusk College of Osteopathic Medicine  Knoxville Tennessee USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elizabeth","family":"Matzkin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Brigham and Women's Hospital  Boston Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arianna L.","family":"Gianakos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yale Medicine, Orthopedics &amp; Rehabilitation Yale School of Medicine  New Haven Connecticut USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","unstructured":"AAMC.2022. \u201cPhysician Specialty Data Report.\u201d.https:\/\/www.aamc.org\/data\u2010reports\/workforce\/data\/acgme\u2010residents\u2010fellows\u2010sex\u2010and\u2010specialty\u20102021.
