Obstetrics & Gynaecology

OBSTETRICS & GYNAECOLOGY CLINIC

Obstetrics and gynaecology are two medical specialties that deal with the reproductive system of a female.

Obstetrics

Obstetrics mainly deals with taking care of pregnant women, unborn baby, labour, delivery as well as the immediate period following childbirth. An obstetrician guarantees that both mother and child get the best care and labour and delivery are accomplished without facing any complications.

When a woman is pregnant, many complications can arise which may require various medical procedures. These include:

Extra Uterine Pregnancy (ECTOPIC pregnancy), a condition where the embryo is in a fallopian tube
High-risk pregnancies including Pre-eclampsia, GDM, Gestational Hypertension
Foetal distress caused due to compression
Screening during pregnancy for medical conditions, high blood pressure and infections
Early pregnancy and its complications
Screening of foetus during pregnancy for chromosomal abnormalities and infections
Postpartum haemorrhage and its management
Postpartum complication including medical and psychological problems

The obstetrician is trained in these and many other difficulties which arise during childbirth. They ensure both mother and baby are safely taken through all the phases of pregnancy as well as childbirth. Whether it is a normal delivery or through a planned or emergency caesarean section, an obstetrics hospital and obstetrician are equipped to handle any variation that may arise during natural, but sometimes the complex course of childbirth.

Gynaecology

Even though the majority of gynaecologists are also obstetricians, the field of gynaecology emphasises on all other aspects of a female’s reproductive health from the beginning of puberty through menopause and even beyond that.

Gynaecology comprises of the preventive care and curative aspects including:

Preventive care such as pap smear, mammography and screening Problems related to adolescence such as pre-ovarian puberty, amenorrhea and more
Infertility
Contraception
Menstrual irregularities
Peri-menopausal issues
Post-menopausal conditions such prolapse, incontinence, post-menopausal bleeding
Screening, detection and treatment of gynaecological malignancies

Usually, women see their gynaecologist for their annual Pap test and pelvic exam. Some other reasons they see a gynaecologist are for any pain, discomfort or infection in the uterus, breasts or genitals. Furthermore, gynaecologists also provide assistance with infertility issues as well as contraception. Gynaecology is all about diagnosing and treating diseases of the reproductive system such as cancer of the fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix, uterus, and vagina. A gynaecologist also helps in treating prolapse of the pelvic organs. This ailment is usually present in postmenopausal females with weakened pelvic muscles that are unable to support the uterus or bladder normally.
