Abstract
Moderniazation of Asia brings about modernization of reproduction which manifests mainly as medicalization of childbirth. In Asia medicalization has yet less impact on postparutm period where traditional local customs still prevail. We hope this session gives larger perspectives to current obstetrical problems in Japan and also it shows another perspective to reproduction research done in the West.
