What does a gynecologist do?

A gynecologist performs a wide variety of tests focused on women's health. They are responsible for performing exams on adult women to check their reproductive health. During the exam, the doctor physically examines the woman, performs STD test, does a breast exam, and monitors use of birth control. Gynecologists sometimes are certified as obstetricians, who look after the health of the mother and the child during pregnancy. 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.
