What is Gynecology?

Gynecology is the medical field dedicated to the health and wellness of the female reproductive system, encompassing a wide range of conditions and issues related to the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and breasts. Gynecologists are specialized doctors who provide essential care for women at every stage of life, from adolescence through menopause and beyond.

Common Gynecological Issues

1. Menstrual Disorders: These include issues like heavy bleeding, painful periods (dysmenorrhea), and irregular cycles, which can significantly impact daily life.
2. Contraception: Providing advice and solutions for birth control, including pills, intrauterine devices (IUDs), and implants to help women plan their families.
3. Fertility Issues: Assisting women who face difficulties in becoming pregnant through diagnosis, treatment, and referral to fertility specialists if needed.
4. Menopause: Managing symptoms such as hot flashes, mood swings, and osteoporosis to help women transition smoothly during this phase.
5. Infections: Diagnosing and treating urinary tract infections (UTIs) and sexually transmitted infections (STIs) to maintain reproductive health.
