Brief Summary

Telemedicine is a form of remote medical practice using information and communication technologies. Teleconsultation is the most common form of telemedicine, thanks in particular to improvements in connectivity and the development and widespread use of mobile phones. It has become a hot topic since the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020, although it has been around since 2009. Patients highlight the convenience, time and cost savings, and positive environmental impact. However, they also point out the limitations associated with a lack of technical expertise in the platforms used, confidentiality issues and more limited access for people from low socio-economic backgrounds or without a good internet connection. Gynecology is an important part of the work of midwives, gynecologists and general practitioners. In this respect, it was essential to maintain consultations during the pandemic. In this context, it seems important to assess the acceptability of teleconsultation in gynecology and to identify the most appropriate reasons for consultation.
