Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/klckr5/gynecological) has announced the addition of the "2014 Report on the International Gynecological Devices Market - Forecasts to 2018" report to their offering.

Gynecological diseases represent a collective term given to different medical conditions specific to the female reproductive system. Thus gynecological diseases include conditions affecting the uterus, ovaries and its appendages. Gynecological devices are medical devices which are used exclusively in gynecological procedures such as surgeries, diagnosis and routine examination.

In the last decade, as the prevalence of gynecological diseases increased, the number of gynecological procedures performed has also increased. Change in the lifestyle of the global female population has gradually enhanced their healthcare requirements. As awareness about health and well-being is on a continuous rise, demand for better gynecological treatments has also increased. Sensing this opportunity, medical device manufacturers worldwide have devised more innovative gynecological devices that have better efficacy and cause less discomfort to the patients by offering quick recovery.

Evolution of endometrial ablation devices for the treatment of menorrhagia and the use of endoscopes in performing gynecological surgeries turned out to be the prime developments in the gynecological devices market in the past few years. In addition, the latest generation of female sterilization and contraceptive devices such as transcervical sterilization implants and subdermal contraceptive implants and introduction of robotic endoscopy in gynecological surgeries indicate that the future of gynecological devices will witness fair growth.

In terms of geographic distribution, North America commanded the largest market share in the global gynecological devices market in 2011, mainly due to well evolved reimbursement policies along with the initial introduction of devices only in the U.S. market.
