FAQ's Related to Gynecologist

What does a gynecologist do?

Gynecologists are medical professionals who specialize in women’s reproductive health. They handle a wide range of problems, including pregnancy, obstetrics, and childbirth, fertility issues, menstruation, and sexually transmitted diseases, hormone disorders, and others. A gynecologist also monitors some medical conditions that her general practitioner takes care of. They also diagnose problems that women might be having with the reproductive organs, like polycystic ovarian syndrome and cervical cancer. They also check vaginal infections or urinary tract infections in women. Gynecologists even perform minor surgeries.

What are the tests required before and during the consultation by a gynecologist?

Gynecologists perform the below-given tests to diagnose conditions related to female reproductive systems:

  • Hysteroscopy
  • Vaginal smear
  • References
  • Laboratory tests
  • Ultrasound
  • Speculum examination
  • Colposcopy
  • Additional diagnostics

Sometimes a gynecologist recommends a few screening tests, to look for problems in people who show no symptoms. If women show symptoms related to their reproductive system (or gynecologic symptoms), different tests to identify the condition causing these (diagnostic procedures) might need to be done. The doctor will perform some tests to detect the condition and plan the treatment as per the test report.

When should you go to see a gynecologist?

A visit to the gynecologist is generally recommended for the annual screening and when a woman shows symptoms like vulvar, pelvic, and vaginal pain and abnormal bleeding in the uterus. Other signs you need to visit a gynecologist include:

  1. Changes in menstrual flow
  2. Any lesion
  3. Painful urination
  4. Painful sex
  5. Blood in your urine
  6. Bad smelling discharge
  7. Long-lasting pelvic pain
  8. Cramps and bloating

Menstrual disorders affect a woman’s monthly menstrual cycle. Women are referred by a primary care doctor or by their gynecologists. Patients also struggle with menstrual issues before they find diagnostic tests and treatments.
