Vorontsovo Estate. From Boyar Estates to the Summer in Moscow Project

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

French fashion, military triumphs and one very ambitious but never realized project with an airship – all this is about the Vorontsovo estate. Art historian Veronika Teletskaya tells about its history and modernity – from curiosities to grandeur and a renovated space with a lecture hall and a library in the open air.

Boyar Voronets and the Wasteland of the Time of Troubles

"Our estate dates back to the 14th century, its first owner was the boyar Fyodor Voronets," says Veronika Teletskaya. "He owned the estate for some time, but then it was most likely taken away from him for some sins that we don't know about."

So the estate has nothing to do with the famous Vorontsov counts. After the boyar Voronts the area went to the treasury, there were royal hunting grounds and places for rest, and in the Time of Troubles – a wasteland (not bare fields, but simply the absence of inhabitants).

Repniny: French chic and birch avenue

Everything changed in the 17th century, when Vorontsovo fell into the hands of the Repnin family, a military dynasty for whom the estate became the embodiment of ambition and fashion. The Repnins considered it their family home. “During their reign, Gothic gates, the Trinity Church, greenhouses, outbuildings, and the Vorontsov ponds appeared,” lists Veronika Teletskaya.

The main pond, by the way, was natural — fed by the Kotlovka and Ramenka rivers, but it caused the owners a lot of trouble. "Spills and rising waters flooded the estate. There was no asphalt — just mud," the art historian explains. The issue had to be resolved — and so a cascade of four ponds appeared, which still exists today. Beautiful and practical — the water could now drain lower in level, and the flooding stopped.

The head of the family, Field Marshal General Nikolai Vasilyevich Repnin, decided to build… a birch avenue. "An estate tree is usually an oak and a linden, right? But Nikolai Vasilyevich did it differently," says Veronika Teletskaya. "When an estate is built, the landowner is a king and a god. He wanted birches, and he planted birches." True, they did not survive to this day, but 250-year-old oaks in the oak grove have survived – they were there when Nikolai Vasilyevich lived. The birch avenue became the main alley, but two more lead from the central entrance to the estate, forming a trident together. This is a reference to the French Versailles and the trident of Neptune – a symbol of power. Everything in the family nest was supposed to remind of the military exploits of the family. Alexander Pushkin wrote about the military distinctions of the Repnins in the poem "Poltava":

These are the chicks of Peter's nest – In the changes of earthly destiny, In the labors of state and war His comrades, sons: And the noble Sheremetev, And Bruce, and Bour, and Repnin…

These lines are about Nikolai Vasilyevich’s grandfather, General Anikita Repnin.

Gothic Gate and Forgotten Bridge

The ceremonial, or Gothic, gates are the calling card of the Vorontsovo estate. In the 18th century, they produced an incredible effect (and the owner clearly intended them to be so). The gates were built in honor of Nikolai Vasilyevich's military victories in the Turkish wars. The gate turrets, on the one hand, refer to the Gothic style, and on the other, they resemble the Turkish bastions that were conquered by the Field Marshal. "They stood on the road from Moscow to Kaluga and Tula – and imagine what an impression they made on travelers!" says Veronika Teletskaya. The Humpbacked Bridge from the 1790s led to the gates; it was accidentally discovered by archaeologists in 2005. "Everyone forgot about it – it was lying under a layer of earth," notes the art historian.

Airship with a gilded boat

A very charming (and slightly strange) page in the life of the Vorontsovo estate is the story of the construction of an airship. At the beginning of the 19th century, the estate became a testing ground for the construction of the first airship bomber in Russia. The descendants of Nikolai Vasilyevich lived in St. Petersburg, and rented out the lands and buildings of the family nest.

"There was an inventor named Franz Xavier Leppich," says Veronika Teletskaya. "At first he proposed the idea to Napoleon, but the latter had already heard about his developments, did not appreciate them, and ordered Leppich to be expelled from France. Leppich did not lose his head – he came to the Russians, convinced Alexander I. They began to build."

The idea was grandiose: a gilded boat lifted by a balloon, with a crew of forty people. "They spent a lot of money, but the "miracle of technology" did not take off. It did not even lift four people," says the art historian.

During Napoleon's troops' stay in Moscow, the main house of the estate was badly damaged, and the owners decided to dismantle it.

A kitchen outbuilding with 18th-century fire-fighting technology and the unexpected hobby of noble men

Several interesting buildings have survived to this day. The western (kitchen) wing has a preserved barrel vault. "This is a specially shaped ceiling with an iron covering: if there was a fire in the kitchen, the fire would not spread to the second floor or neighboring buildings," explains Veronika Teletskaya. No less curious are the Finnish tiled stoves. To heat the house, you had to first heat the basement, then the first floor, and only then the second.

As for the hobbies of aristocrats, it was not only balls and hunting – in the second half of the 18th century, Russian nobles (primarily, paradoxically, men) were keen on gardening. "Men grew exotic fruits – imagine having your own melon or strawberry out of season!" – says Veronika Teletskaya. Moreover, they exchanged seeds in letters. "There were even such complaints: I sent you seeds, but you didn't send me!" – the art critic continues.

The tradition of serving fresh fruit at any time of year, which amazed foreigners, originated from such estate experiments. The Vorontsov greenhouse with its steam heating system (warm air rose from the cellar) and glass roof (a rare luxury for that time) reflected this fashionable hobby. The glass roof has not survived, but the building itself, which adorns the park, is currently being restored.

After the Repnins, the estate survived a series of owners and the dacha boom of the late 19th century. There was even a women's prison here, where the revolutionary Maria Spiridonova was "re-educated." And during the Great Patriotic War, barrage balloons were launched from here, which protected Moscow from air raids – as if the estate had justified the failure of the airship.

Karaoke with a piano and a library in the forest

Now the estate is experiencing a boom again. “City festivals and events for visitors of all ages, from children to the older generation, take place here,” says Maria Pashkova, the cultural and leisure manager of the Vorontsovo estate.

This summer, Vorontsovo became one of the sites of the festival "Moscow Estates". On weekends, you can take part in noble games, picnics, promenades (the schedule is on the project's website "Summer in Moscow").

The dance floor and forest library are especially popular. The first, designed as a place for yoga and dancing, becomes a recreation area and a place for photo shoots in free time. The second is a space for unusual entertainment – for example, karaoke with a piano or master classes on creating boutonnieres.

For those who prefer active leisure, Vorontsovo offers a site with exercise machines for all muscle groups, a multifunctional sports area (skating rink in winter, volleyball and table tennis in summer), Nordic walking and dancing classes, as well as programs for participants project "Moscow Longevity".

"Moscow Longevity has a lot of activities, some of the top ones are dancing, Nordic walking, general physical training. Sometimes we organize separate concerts and excursions for the program participants," adds Maria Pashkova.

Vorontsov hosts themed excursions, among the most popular are: "One day in the life of a landowner", hosted by Veronika Teletskaya.

The surviving buildings of the estate are bustling with life. The western (kitchen) wing attracts visitors with temporary exhibitions. Until July 31, the exhibition “Girl. Young Lady. Lady” is open here, where dresses, fans and other attributes of women's life of the 19th century are presented. The most touching exhibits are dolls, doll dishes and accessories. Little young ladies arranged tea parties and visits for their dolls, at the same time learning how to properly set the table and mastering the rules of etiquette. In the eastern wing (the stable yard servants' quarters), various thematic classes are held – from English to drawing, and the southern service building is used for master classes and lectures. Now a children's theme camp is open there – it is dedicated to animation. There is also a lecture hall in the park. The schedule of classes, lectures, master classes and exhibitions can be found atofficial website of the estate and on her page in the service "Mosbilet".

Today, the Vorontsovo estate and Vorontsov Park are a place where history lives in beautiful architecture, interesting exhibitions, open-air dancing and quiet walks under centuries-old oaks.

You can take part in an artistic experiment on Chistoprudny Boulevard

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

As part of the urban project "Summer in Moscow" on Chistoprudny Boulevardan unusual creative event will take place — an open-air artistic and dance performance called “Body Image”. This is a master class of a new format, where anyone can try themselves in the role of an artist-observer. The model will not be a static figure, but a professional dancer performing movements in slow motion.

This is a meditation on the theme of movement as a form of life, a way of existence and a reflection of time. The dancer, changing styles – from academic to modern, moves smoothly, almost dissolving in space. His body becomes the language of memory, a bearer of style, emotions and culture. The spectators, located at the easels, do not just observe, but turn out to be co-authors of what is happening. Each of their drawings is a visual attempt to catch an elusive form, to capture the shadow of movement, the emotional trace of the moment.

Musical accompaniment acquires a special significance. It becomes not just a background, but a full participant in the process, the rhythm and breath of the performance. The musician on the stage interacts with the dancer, creating a common artistic space. This is not only a visual, but also a sound experience that creates a special mood and enhances perception.

The first performance will take place on July 26 at 18:00. The evening will open with a contemporary dance accompanied by live saxophone. The next meeting (August 1 at 18:00) will feature an academic dance accompanied by a synthesizer. Each performance is dedicated to one style and lasts about an hour.

The artist-models are graduates of leading theatre institutes of Russia. They will take turns in front of the audience-artists. The director of this unusual master class-performance is Alina Bolozneva, a graduate of the directing department of the Russian Institute of Theatre Arts – GITIS.

The Body Image project poses the question: is it possible to capture movement? Or is each sketch just a reflection of an inner view, a personal projection? The project is aimed at developing attention, body memory and the ability to see not just with the eyes, but with an inner feeling. Anyone can catch movement on paper. Admission is free, no pre-registration required.

Project "Summer in Moscow"— the main event of the season. It brings together the most vibrant events of the capital. Every day, charity, cultural and sports events are held in all districts of the city, most of which are free. "Summer in Moscow" is being held for the second time, and this season will be more eventful: new, original and colorful festivals and events will be added to the traditional ones.

Chewbacca, Lexus and Kus: What unusual nicknames do Muscovites give their dogs?

Translation. Region: Russian Federal

Source: Moscow Government – Government of Moscow –

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Since the beginning of 2025, more than 24,677 dogs have already undergone the registration procedure in the Moscow State Veterinary Service. Doctors from state veterinary clinics told about the most unusual nicknames of four-legged patients.

Give a special name

The most popular and common names for tailed friends in Moscow remain Jackie, Rich, Alma, Busya, Jessie, Mickey, Barney and Tyson. However, many owners call their dog something special.

This summer alone, Moscow State Veterinary Service veterinarians received more than 100 tailed patients whose nicknames surprised or made people smile. For example, the Krasnogvardeyskaya Veterinary Clinic was visited by owners of dogs named Pedro, Leonid Petrovich, Uksus, and Anakonda. The Kuntsevo Veterinary Clinic was visited by a tailed patient of the Bichon Frise breed named Pushkin.

Some Muscovites name their dogs after famous people. Thus, the capital's state veterinary service has registered Ornella Muti, Jackie Chan, Uma Thurman, Beyoncé, Sarah Jessica, Jobs, Zidane, Timati, Veronica Castro, as well as Barclay de Tolly and Che Guevara.

Among the owners there are also fans of the Harry Potter books. Most of them live in the north-east of Moscow. Several dogs named Harry are registered there, as well as Lovegood, Cedric and Neville. In addition, there are pets Albus and Nymphadora in the capital.

In addition, Moscow is home to a dog named Indiana Jones, as well as several Sheldons, Leonards, and Pennys. No less popular with dog owners are the names of Star Wars characters — pets are called Leia, Yoda, and Chewbacca.

Prada, Gucci and Glamour are no longer rare names for pets – they are found in several districts of the capital.

Fashion trends

The most common trend in the capital is to give pets "tasty" names. For example, Caramel, Biscuit, Bun, Bagel, Muffin, Toffee, Gingerbread, Zephyr, Donut, Truffle, Candy, Cheesecake, Cappuccino and Milfey. The nicknames Baton, Blinchik, Belyash, Shashlik, Jamon and Ratatouille are found in veterinary passports. And also Carrot, Plum, Olive, Date, Tofu and Chuka.

This year, another interesting trend has been noted in state veterinary clinics: the number of dogs named in the Russian tradition is increasing. For example, they are given nicknames Afanasy, Timofey, Misha, Lelik, Igorek, Fedor, Semyon, Filya, Vasily, Kuzya and Stepan. Among the female options, Vasilisa, Lyusya, Tosya, Zosya, Frosya, Efrosinia and Dunyasha are popular.

The unusual nicknames of pets can give clues about the hobbies or professions of their owners. Thus, Lexus, Infinity and Mercedes probably live in the homes of lovers of beautiful cars, and dogs named Propofol and Dopamine are most likely from a family of doctors.

Muscovites call proud, brave and noble dogs Count, Tsar, Milord, Richard the Lionheart or Lancelot. There are also nicknames reminiscent of other animals – Hedgehog, Fish, Fox and Sable.

Apparently, when love for a pet is so overwhelming that you want to record it in a passport, dogs with the nicknames Zhemchuzhinka, Prelest', Kolka, Radost', Zabava and Charodey appear.

Super short and complex nicknames

You can also draw the attention of others to your pet with a super short nickname. Among the patients of state veterinary clinics are dogs Kus, Viy, Ukho and Chek.

Some owners like complex compound nicknames. Among the most interesting are Black-Eyed Diva, Tsar's Gift, Master of Life, Ray of Happiness, Wave of Positive, Agathis Zaznobushka, Supreme Witch and Tough Nut. One of the longest and most impressive nicknames was recorded this summer at the Donskaya Veterinary Clinic, where a tailed patient came with a note in her passport: "Your Charming Blagoslava Schastlivaya".

Among the unique dog nicknames, the state veterinary service doctors also singled out Filon, Baraklyush, Albufeira, Kapitoshka, Matryoshka, Lampa, Penka, Pulya and Kometa. No less original are the names of male pets. Among them are Saburik, Khryuntik, Kubik, Vintik, April, Yellow, Green, Runner, Sequel, Adrenaline, Pixel, Diesel, Barmaley and Academician.

Nicknames that were popular in the past have now become rare. This year, only one Zhucha has been registered in the capital. Also, there are only one Bobik, Barbos and Druzhok.

The Moscow State Veterinary Service reminded that dog registration is mandatory in the capital. This procedure is free, takes no more than 15 minutes and is carried out at any state veterinary clinic. You can get detailed information, as well as make an appointment with a veterinarian, at the State Veterinary Service contact center by calling 24 hours a day: 7 495 612-12-12.

In Moscow, the modernization of the city clinical hospital (GKB) named after V.V. Veresaev on Lobbenskaya Street (building 10) is nearing completion. By the end of 2025, the reconstruction of buildings No. 12 and 3 will be completed, in which it is planned to open a maternity hospital and a women's health center. This was reported in on your telegram channel Sergei Sobyanin reported.

"Placing the maternity hospital on the territory of a large multidisciplinary hospital will help to use all available medical resources for mothers and newborns. In addition, modernization of building No. 3 is underway, where the Women's Health Center will be located. It will operate

new standard outpatient obstetric and gynecological care,” the Mayor of Moscow wrote.

Source: Sergei Sobyanin's Telegram channel @mos_sobyanin

Previously, a flagship center was built on the hospital grounds, and the main treatment buildings were reconstructed.

Modernization of buildings

Reconstruction of building No. 12 began in September 2024. The cardiology departments previously located here were transferred to the already renovated buildings No. 1 and 2.

During the work, the seven-story building built in 1986 will be completely modernized. The renovated building with an area of 14.45 thousand square meters will house a modern maternity hospital with 286 beds, of which 15 are in intensive care (including nine incubators for newborns) and 15 are in a short-stay hospital.

Placing the maternity hospital on the territory of a large multidisciplinary hospital will allow all available medical resources, including a powerful diagnostic base, to be put at the service of motherhood and childhood. If necessary, consultations on complex cases will be held here. An underground passage connects the building with the existing buildings of the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital. It will significantly facilitate and speed up the routing of patients between different departments of the hospital, if necessary.

The latest medical equipment will be purchased to equip building No. 12. This includes, for example, ultrasound machines, a C-arm X-ray machine, resuscitation, gynecological, surgical, laboratory and other equipment, including high-tech equipment for nursing premature babies.

Seven operating rooms are envisaged – three for the obstetrics hospital and four for the gynecology department with a short-stay hospital. Their technological capabilities will allow for minimally invasive interventions, including within the framework of high-tech medical care (HTMC).

The first floor will house an admissions department with an emergency operating room (for urgent interventions), a pregnancy pathology department, and an observation (infectious) box. A foyer will also be set up here for a ceremonial meeting upon discharge from the maternity hospital.

The second floor will house a gynecology department and a short-stay hospital with four operating rooms (three of which are small). Their capacity will allow them to provide assistance to more than 40 patients per day.

The third through sixth floors will house the obstetrics and physiological department for the joint stay of mothers with newborns in comfortable single and double wards. In addition, the fifth and sixth floors will house the intensive care unit with 15 beds. The fifth floor will be for newborns (nine incubators) with the necessary equipment for nursing premature babies with extremely low birth weight, and the sixth floor will be for women in labor (six beds).

On the seventh floor, a maternity ward with 14 individual boxes of increased comfort and an operating block with two operating rooms equipped with a C-arm device will be opened. This will allow high-tech interventions to be carried out.

As in the entire hospital, the updated building will implement the principle of a digital clinic – documentation will be kept in electronic form. This will provide joint round-the-clock online access of specialists to patients' medical data, including via mobile devices – tablets of doctors and nurses.

Currently, building No. 3 of the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital, built in 1971, is also being modernized. The renovated building, with an area of about four thousand square meters, will house a women's health center that will operate according to the new standard of outpatient obstetric and gynecological care. In one place, patients will be able to receive all the necessary types of diagnostics and treatment both to prepare for the birth of a child and to maintain women's health.

The modernization of buildings No. 12 and 3 of the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital is planned to be completed by the end of this year.

Multidisciplinary institution in the north of Moscow

The V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital opened in 1937. Today it is one of the largest multidisciplinary medical institutions in Moscow. The hospital is located in the north of Moscow in the Dmitrovsky district at the address: Lobbenskaya Street, Building 10.

The clinic consists of 11 buildings with a total area of 58.8 thousand square meters, as well as a maternity hospital (800th Anniversary of Moscow Street) and 10 women's consultation centers, to which about 495 thousand women are assigned.

In total, the hospital has 778 beds, including 102 in intensive care and 30 in emergency medical care.

As part of the comprehensive modernization of the healthcare institution in recent years, the main treatment buildings No. 1 and 2 have been reconstructed, and a flagship emergency care center and a helipad have been built. Now, buildings No. 12 and 3 are being modernized, where a maternity hospital and a women's health center will be located.

Doctors of the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital provide assistance to patients in many areas. These include purulent and cardiovascular surgery, traumatology, neurosurgery, obstetrics, gynecology, neonatology, anesthesiology and resuscitation, cardiology, vascular and peripheral neurology, endocrinology, therapy and others.

High-tech medical care is provided in such areas as cardiovascular surgery, surgery, neurosurgery, traumatology and orthopedics, endocrinology, obstetrics and gynecology.

The hospital successfully operates a regional vascular center, where a full cycle of treatment and rehabilitation measures are carried out for patients with stroke and heart attack. Among them are endovascular surgery (percutaneous coronary intervention – minimally invasive operations performed through a small puncture in the skin), thromboextraction (a procedure for removing blood clots during stroke), open surgery (cardiac surgery, neurosurgery, vascular surgery), specialized resuscitation (cardiac resuscitation, neurosurgical and cardiac surgical resuscitation, neuroresuscitation) and therapeutic care (cardiology and neurology).

The hospital has a diabetic foot center, a phlebology center, inter-district departments for multiple sclerosis and paroxysmal conditions (epilepsy, fainting, etc.), and an inter-district center for surgical treatment of precerebral artery pathology.

Since the beginning of this year, 47.1 thousand people have received medical care at the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital (in 2024 – 89.5 thousand). Within the framework of high-tech medical care, 2708 patients were treated (in 2024 – 3456 people).

Since its opening in January 2023, the flagship emergency care center of the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital has received about 146 thousand patients. In addition, specialists have performed over 46 thousand operations.

The institution employs 2,073 people, including 703 doctors and 815 mid-level medical personnel.

The V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital is a clinical base for 12 departments of five educational institutions. These are the Russian National Research Medical University named after N.I. Pirogov, the First Moscow State Medical University named after I.M. Sechenov, the Russian University of Medicine, the Russian Medical Academy of Continuous Professional Education and the National Research Institute of Public Health named after N.A. Semashko.

Construction and reconstruction of hospitals and clinics

Since 2011, more than 175 city, federal and private healthcare facilities have been built in Moscow.

As a result of the creation of flagship centers — based on the V.V. Veresaev City Clinical Hospital, the N.V. Sklifosovsky Research Institute of Emergency Care, the O.M. Filatov City Clinical Hospital No. 15, the S.P. Botkin Moscow Multidisciplinary Scientific and Clinical Center, the N.I.

An important disclaimer is at the bottom of this article.

Moscow continues to implement a new standard of care for women's health. The new standard of outpatient obstetric and gynecological care is based on comprehensive care for women's health and the comfort of receiving specialized treatment. This was reported in on your telegram channel Sergei Sobyanin reported.

"The key element is women's health centers. They are replacing the outdated format of women's consultations. These are clinics with the latest equipment, where women can receive specialized care throughout their lives. They are part of the structure of multidisciplinary city hospitals. Thus, patients receive all the best that Moscow healthcare has to offer, and in one place. This is especially important for expectant mothers. To date, we have already opened

11 centers women's health," the Mayor of Moscow wrote.

By the end of this year, it is planned to complete the creation of five centers based on:

— City Clinical Hospital (CCH) named after V.V. Veresaev on Lobbenskaya Street (building 10);

— City Clinical Hospital named after S.S. Yudin on Medikov Street (building 7);

— City Clinical Hospital named after A.K. Yeramishantsev on Pechorskaya Street (building 10, block 1) and Kasatkina Street (building 9);

— City Clinical Hospital No. 31 named after Academician G.M. Savelyeva on Teply Stan Street (building 12b).

Future plans include opening more than 10 centers in different areas of Moscow.

The new standard of outpatient obstetric and gynecological care includes a full cycle of services – from consultations and examinations to support during pregnancy within the structure of a single complex (women's health center – maternity hospital or perinatal center – gynecological department of a multidisciplinary hospital).

A key element of the new standard is women's health centers – modern clinics with a wide range of diagnostic capabilities, where women can receive obstetric and gynecological care throughout their lives, prepare for pregnancy, and be monitored by their doctor before the birth of their child.

The new centers are intended to replace traditional women's consultations, where the quality and comfort of medical care do not meet modern requirements due to various reasons, such as:

— placement in small premises, in which it is not possible to install a full set of diagnostic equipment. Often, the consultation area is from 350 to 600 square meters, and in some of them there are only three rooms;

— lack of uniform equipment standards. Patients have to visit other medical organizations to undergo not only specialized, but also many routine examinations, including ultrasound;

— uneven workload of specialists and staff shortages. The lack of uniform requirements for staffing reduces the availability of medical care — not all women's clinics have specialists;

– the impossibility of creating comfortable conditions for stay.

In accordance with the new Moscow standard, women's health centers provide:

— continuity between outpatient and inpatient care. For patients, this means seamless routing from the women's health center to the maternity hospital, perinatal center or multidisciplinary hospital. A woman's health is in the hands of one team of professional doctors;

— a unified standard of equipment that allows for a full range of diagnostic procedures (ultrasound, mammography, fetal screening, etc.) to be performed using modern, high-tech equipment;

— a unified approach to recruiting staff. The centers will employ obstetricians-gynecologists, therapists, endocrinologists, psychologists and specialists in other various fields;

— modern approaches to the prevention and treatment of diseases, including early detection of oncological diseases, treatment of infertility, cervical pathology and benign breast diseases;

— convenient digital solutions. All data on appointments, examination results, tests and prescriptions are stored in an electronic medical record, women's consultations and women's health centers are united on the EMIAS platform, and basic processes, including the creation of structured protocols, site passports, registers and routing, are carried out digitally;

— comfortable conditions for patients, ensuring the preservation of personal space, as well as creating an atmosphere of coziness and a positive attitude.

In addition, an important advantage of women's health centers is their accessibility. They accept patients seven days a week, unlike the old women's consultation centers, which accept patients only on weekdays.

Women of all ages receive medical care in women's health centers, including during pregnancy, as well as patients of dispensary groups (with infertility and other health problems requiring specialized treatment). Pregnancy management takes place in the most comfortable conditions with wide diagnostic capabilities and the involvement of highly specialized specialists.

Women's Reproductive Health Support Program

In September 2024, Moscow was the first in Russia to launch a program to support women's reproductive health, "Becoming a Mom," aimed at helping Muscovites aged 25 to 39 (if there are medical indications, 18 to 24 years old) plan their pregnancies, taking into account their individual characteristics. The project was developed jointly with leading reproductive specialists and obstetricians and gynecologists.

For the first time, procedures such as blood tests to measure the level of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), which shows how many potential eggs women have left in reserve, cryopreservation of eggs, and genetic diagnostics of embryos have become free for residents of the capital.

At the first stage, project participants are offered to take a test for AMH levels. If the test results show that it is low, the woman will be invited to a women's health center for a detailed consultation and offered a set of actions for successful pregnancy planning. For example, it will be possible to preserve eggs for free using cryopreservation. The city will ensure the storage of eggs and embryos in clinics participating in the project for two years. When a woman wants to become a mother, she will be able to use them to get pregnant using assisted reproductive technologies.

In addition, specialists can offer free in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer procedures. Today, EMIAS has formed referrals for screening examinations for AMH levels for more than 1.2 million women.

Since the launch of the program, more than 220 thousand Muscovites have taken the test. This indicates a high coverage of the female population by the population screening program for reproductive health.

Every fourth woman who took the AMH test has a value of less than 1.5. Almost six thousand project participants, including thanks to the data obtained, decided to become mothers and have already registered for pregnancy. About 300 participants used the cryopreservation procedure.

All this demonstrates the demand for a project to diagnose and support women's reproductive health and to form a responsible attitude of women to their health, pregnancy and motherhood in society.
