Gynaecology

Gynaecology

Gynaecology is a branch of medicine that focuses on the health of the female reproductive system. Gynaecologists are specialists who diagnose and treat a wide range of conditions affecting the reproductive organs, including the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, and vagina. They provide preventive care, such as annual pelvic exams, Pap smears, and screenings for sexually transmitted infections. Gynaecologists also manage reproductive health issues such as menstrual disorders, infertility, menopause, and contraception. Additionally, they diagnose gynaecological cancers, including cervical, ovarian, and uterine cancers, often working closely with oncologists for comprehensive care.
