The rate of obstetricians and gynecologists among practicing physicians. A clear regional trend, a high-east low-west distribution, can be seen in this ranking, which is the complete opposite of the number of physicians.

Because the numbers of obstetricians and gynecologists per unit population were similar in both western Japan and eastern Japan, the rates of obstetricians and gynecologists decreases in western Japan where the numbers of physicians is greater.

Because this similar trend can be seen in the rate of pediatricians as well, it can be said that the numbers of pediatricians, obstetricians and gynecologists do not differ greatly on a national level, but there are many physicians in other departments in western Japan.
