Zika virus is a serious problem. Education and infection prevention are critical to effective management, and why we chose to include Zika virus as a topic for this year’s Update. We also discuss obesity’s effects on reproduction—a very relevant concern for all ObGyns and patients alike as about half of reproductive-age women are obese. Finally, subclinical hypothyroidism can present unique management challenges, such as determining when it is present and when treatment is indicated.
