i am interested in both obgyn and interventional cardioloogy i dont know what to choose
i prefer a specialty with a medicine and surgery or interventional so both specialties was interesting to me
but i dont know what to choose i am final year now ( i didnt like any field in medicine except the interventional cardiology but i am afraid from radiation as i saw on youtube and google there is doctors who has bilateral cataract and brain cancer ) and obgyn is combination of both medicine and surgery can anyone have an idea how to choose between both?

It takes 7-8 years to do interventional cardiology (3 years IM, 3 years cards, 1- 2 years for interventional) and is competitive. You are exposed to radiation. You wear leaded goggles, lead over your body and often a leaded cap to limit your exposure but nonetheless, you are exposed to radiation.

It takes 4 years to do OBGYM. These are very different specialties.

Also I suspect you are not from the US so if you are considering training in the US, realize there are some things that will be outside of your level of competitiveness.
