Objective　To evaluate the effect of WeChat platform in the diagnosis and treatment of menopausal-related diseases for gynecologists. Methods　In March 2017

47 gynecologists who voluntarily participated in the offline continuing medical education project Diagnosis and Treatment training of menopause-related diseases in Beijing Shijitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University were selected as the control group (traditional teaching mode)

and 52 gynecologists who volunteered to participate in WeChat platform training were selected as the experimental group (WeChat teaching mode). The main outcome measure was the knowledge level of menopause-related diseases and curriculum satisfaction before and after training. SPSS was used to perform t-test or chi-square test for inter-group data. Results All gynecologists completed the study

the recovery rate of the evaluation questionnaire before and after training was 100%. Before training

the average score of menopause-related disease knowledge and the test passing rate of knowledge examination in experimental group were (63.65±21.42) and 65.4%

while those in the control group were (60.85±24.83) and 63.8%

respectively. No significant difference was found (P>0.05). After training

the knowledge level of menopause-related diseases and the test passing rate significantly improved in both groups (P<0.05). The average score of students and the passing rate in the experimental group were (77.50±16.19) and 90.1%

which were better than those in the control group [(78.72±16.89)

87.2%]. However

there was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Besides

the experimental group was more satisfied

but the difference was not statistically significant compared with control group (P>0.05). Conclusion　WeChat platform training for gynecologists not only has the same effects as the traditional teaching model on menopausal disease diagnosis and treatment training

but also gains higher training satisfaction

suggesting WeChat platform training can be further applied to other subdisciplines.
