The health of woman is not only fundamental basis, but also key factor of social economic well-being of society, demographic stability and health of future generations.

In the Russian Federation, the problem of modernization of obstetric gynecological service and, in particular, women consultations, is especially acute. Historically, The historically established system is often criticized for bureaucratization, insufficient focus on prevention and disparity between various levels of medical care. In this regard, emergence and implementation of new regional standards, in particular, metropolitan standard of obstetric gynecological care and Centers of Female Health is unique case requiring detailed scientific analysis and comparison with international advanced experience. The actuality of the study is conditioned by increasing need in developing new paradigm of medical care support of women, built on principles of complexity, continuity, personalization and orientation on prevention. The Centers of Female Health, integrating large spectrum of services, from screenings and diagnostics to psychological support and training programs, are considered by world community as gold standard of organization of such care.
