Abstract
In 1983, when I was in the first year of residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology, an eighteen years old mother died by invasive mole. Since the past 30 years, Mole hydadidiform (HM) as the origin of more invasive forms of Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia (GTN) which affects women’s health, has been as one of my concerns and I would like to share my perception and experience in this way with you.

After graduation and working as an obstetrics & Gynecologist, I faced to another question; why we do not cut women’s ways not to progress to the drastic conditions and worse outcomes? Is our responsibility being active in clinics and operative rooms? Should we play passive roles? Should we wait for starting an ill process and we enter the scene and play our role as repairers? In other words I was thinking for preventions and being leaders in the health domain not just disease
Summary
Obstetrician and Gynecologist, Community Medicine Department, School of Medicine, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran. In 1983, when I was in the first year of residency in Obstetrics and Gynecology, an eighteen years old mother died by invasive mole. Since the past 30 years, Mole hydadidiform (HM) as the origin of more invasive forms of Gestational Trophoblastic Neoplasia (GTN) [1] which affects women’s health, has been as one of my concerns and I would like to share my perception and experience in this way with you. I realized that perhaps all of the mothers who were managed in our hospitals for molar pregnancies had husbands who were constructive workers, agricultural workers, or gardeners.
