What is gynecology?

Gynecology is an area of medical practice focused on addressing women’s health needs. While gynecology mostly centers on reproductive health, your practitioner is also a source of information about general health issues that women face. 

While all practitioners who offer gynecology services also receive training in obstetrics care, not all choose to include those services in their practice. If the time comes when you need to find a caring and compassionate obstetrician, the team at Menopause Solutions helps you find a great fit for your needs. 

What are some common gynecology concerns?

Gynecology spans women’s health issues beginning at puberty and extending throughout the phases of life. As you grow and mature, your women’s health needs shift and change. Partnering with a highly skilled and experienced gynecologist ensures you have the support you need as you move through those transitions. 

Some of the gynecology needs you might address during a visit to Menopause Solutions include:

• Abnormal bleeding
• Pelvic pain
• Birth control
• Endometriosis
• Polycystic ovary syndrome
• Uterine fibroids

These are just a few of the areas of focus you might encounter throughout your life. At Menopause Solutions, you have access to a gynecologist with unparalleled skills and experience, who is passionate about the role that gynecology plays in a woman’s life. 

When should women come in for gynecology services?

Many parents bring their daughters in for early gynecology care during their teenage years. These early visits don’t usually involve a pelvic exam but provide an opportunity for young women to begin building a trusting bond with their practitioner. 

Adolescent gynecology also provides information on birth control, menstrual concerns, sexually transmitted disease prevention, screening, and treatment. If you haven’t already begun working with a gynecologist by the time you’re sexually active, it’s important to find a practitioner you feel comfortable with. 

Women continue to see their gynecologists as they move through the years. Annual visits ensure you get the necessary screenings and information to maintain optimal health. If an issue arises between these routine preventive health visits, you know where to turn for outstanding care.
