Islamic Ruling & Answer
VerifiedWa Alaikum Assalam.
Yes, it is permissible to become a gynaecologist, as female doctors are needed for female patients and this is a noble service.
However, if the working environment is very toxic or harmful to your health, you are not required to tolerate harm. You may look for a better and safer workplace.
It is allowed, but protect your deen and health.
