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. They work closely with an obstetrician during pregnancy. The doctors certified in both obstetrics and gynecology are called OB/GYN doctors. The doctors also work in private clinics, hospitals, and specialty clinics. Most of them work in partnership with other medical experts. Some also become educators for medical students studying gynecology.

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:

  • Additional diagnostics
  • Hysteroscopy
  • Laboratory tests
  • Speculum examination
