TEGO TEGO Exam Preparation ======================= Título de Especialista em Ginecologia e Obstetrícia Federação Brasileira das Associações de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia (FEBRASGO) Brazil TEGO is Brazil’s specialist title examination in Gynecology and Obstetrics administered by FEBRASGO (with AMB partnership referenced in FEBRASGO communications). FEBRASGO describes TEGO as a staged process, requiring candidates to be approved in a first phase and then demonstrate performance in a second practical/theoretical-practical phase. Passing TEGO supports formal recognition as a specialist in Ginecologia e Obstetrícia. Phase 1 – Theoretical Examination Phase 2 – Practical / Theoretical-Practical Examination 3,211+ Questions 2,355+ Flashcards 67+ Podcasts About the TEGO Exam --------------------- The Título de Especialista em Ginecologia e Obstetrícia (TEGO) is the official specialist certification examination for Obstetrics and Gynecology in Brazil. Administered by the Federação Brasileira das Associações de Ginecologia e Obstetrícia (FEBRASGO) in partnership with the Brazilian Medical Association (AMB), this highly respected credential formally recognizes a physician's expertise in the field. Achieving the TEGO is often essential for career advancement, hospital affiliations, and academic positions within Brazil. ### Eligibility Candidates must hold an active medical license with a Regional Council of Medicine (CRM) in Brazil. They must also have either completed a 3-year Medical Residency in Gynecology and Obstetrics accredited by the National Commission of Medical Residency (CNRM/MEC), or provide documented proof of equivalent professional practice in the specialty (typically requiring double the training period, or 6 years of practice). ### Exam Format The TEGO is a staged examination. Phase 1 is a Theoretical Examination consisting of a comprehensive multiple-choice question (MCQ) paper covering both gynecology and obstetrics. Candidates who pass Phase 1 advance to Phase 2, a Theoretical-Practical Examination that assesses applied clinical competence through clinical case scenarios, image interpretation (such as ultrasounds and CTGs), and structured practical questions. ### Duration Phase 1 typically lasts for 4 to 5 hours. Phase 2, the theoretical-practical component, is generally completed within 2 to 4 hours, though candidates should allocate a full day for each phase to account for registration and administrative procedures. ### Passing Criteria Candidates must typically achieve a minimum score of 60% (or 6.0 out of 10) on the Phase 1 theoretical exam to qualify for Phase 2. The final passing grade is determined by a combined score or a minimum threshold in Phase 2, as strictly defined by the annual 'edital' (official exam notice) published by FEBRASGO. ### Exam Fees Exam fees generally range from R$ 1,500 to R$ 3,500 BRL. Active FEBRASGO members typically receive a significant discount compared to non-members, so candidates are encouraged to verify current membership benefits and exact fees in the latest official edital. ### Exam Frequency The TEGO examination is held annually. ### Registration Process Registration is conducted entirely online through the official FEBRASGO website. Candidates must fill out the application form, submit digitized copies of required documents (CRM, proof of residency or practice time), and pay the registration fee within the deadline specified in the annual edital.

The TEGO (Título de Especialista em Ginecologia e Obstetrícia) is the official board certification exam for obstetricians and gynecologists in Brazil. It is administered by FEBRASGO and validates a physician's specialized knowledge and clinical competence. Passing the exam grants the specialist title recognized by the Brazilian Medical Association (AMB). Is the TEGO mandatory to practice Gynecology and Obstetrics in Brazil? While a physician can legally practice Ob/Gyn in Brazil after completing an MEC-accredited medical residency, possessing the TEGO is a mark of excellence. It is frequently required for hiring in premium private hospitals, healthcare cooperatives (like Unimed), and academic teaching positions. Can I take the TEGO without completing a medical residency? Yes, physicians who have not completed an official residency can still apply if they have proven, documented professional experience in the specialty. Typically, this requires demonstrating active practice in Ob/Gyn for a period double the length of the residency (e.g., 6 years), though specific requirements should be verified in the annual edital. What happens if I pass Phase 1 but fail Phase 2? Historically, candidates who fail the Phase 2 theoretical-practical exam may be required to retake the entire TEGO process in subsequent years. However, candidates should verify specific carry-over rules or exemptions with the current year's official FEBRASGO edital, as policies can undergo modifications. How is the Phase 2 Theoretical-Practical exam conducted? Phase 2 evaluates applied clinical knowledge. Instead of a live patient exam, it typically involves structured multimedia stations or a written theoretical-practical format where candidates interpret clinical vignettes, ultrasound images, CTG strips, and laboratory results to formulate diagnoses and management plans. When is the TEGO edital usually published? The official exam edital is generally published by FEBRASGO in the first half of the year, outlining all rules, dates, syllabus details, and fees. Candidates should monitor the official FEBRASGO portal closely starting in March or April. Are international guidelines (like ACOG or RCOG) relevant for the TEGO? While international knowledge is valuable, the TEGO strictly follows Brazilian protocols. Whenever there is a discrepancy between international guidelines and those from FEBRASGO or the Brazilian Ministry of Health, candidates must base their answers on the official Brazilian guidelines. How long is the TEGO certificate valid? The specialist title itself does not expire. However, specialists are encouraged to participate in continuous medical education programs, and AMB has initiatives like the Certificate of Professional Update (CAP) to ensure specialists remain current in their field.
