Doctor: Muslim women also ask for 'birthing pants' during check-ups

Muslim expectant mothers receiving treatment at public hospitals are concerned about their aurat (modesty), and not just during childbirth, a gynaecologist at a public hospital said.

According to the public hospital gynecologist, Muslim women also requested to use "birthing pants" during check-ups, so they could cover their aurat as much as possible.

It is generally accepted that Muslim women can only show their face and hands to members of the opposite gender they are not related to.
