Gynaecology

During your visit to Prema Health, our experienced doctors will begin with a thorough discussion of your medical history, current symptoms, and any concerns you may have. This conversation lays the foundation for personalised care and ensures all aspects of your reproductive health are addressed.

Depending on your needs, the doctor may conduct a pelvic exam to evaluate the health of your reproductive organs. This includes a visual inspection and manual palpation of the uterus, ovaries, and cervix to detect any abnormalities. A Pap smear may be performed to screen for cervical cancer or HPV (Human Papillomavirus). Breast exams may also be part of the routine, checking for any changes or abnormalities in the breast tissue.

Regular gynaecology appointments offer numerous benefits, including early detection and treatment of gynaecological conditions, or sexually transmitted infections (STIs). They also provide an opportunity for contraceptive counselling, ensuring you have access to effective birth control methods tailored to your needs and preferences. For women approaching menopause, gynaecology appointments can address symptoms and provide guidance on managing this life stage.

At Prema Health, we prioritise your comfort and well-being, offering a supportive environment where you can discuss sensitive issues openly. Our goal is to empower you with knowledge about your body and provide proactive, personalised care to promote long-term reproductive health. Whether you’re seeking routine care or addressing specific concerns, our dedicated team is here to support you every step of the way.

Following a gynaecological appointment at Prema Health, various conditions can be identified and effectively managed, contributing to women’s overall health and well-being.

One common issue detected is abnormal menstrual patterns, such as heavy bleeding (menorrhagia) or irregular cycles. These symptoms may indicate underlying conditions like hormonal imbalances, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), or uterine fibroids.

Pelvic pain is another significant concern addressed during gynaecological appointments. Persistent or severe pelvic pain may be due to conditions like endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), ovarian cysts, or adenomyosis.

A Pap smear, also known as a Pap test, is a common screening procedure that is often carried out during a gynaecological appointment, which can detect abnormal cells on the cervix. This may indicate cervical cancer or precancerous conditions.

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are also screened for and treated at gynaecological appointments such as chlamydia, gonorrhoea, or HPV, reducing the risk of complications like pelvic inflammatory disease or infertility.

Gynaecological exams also play a crucial role in detecting abnormalities in the breast tissue, such as cysts or fibroadenomas, through clinical breast exams.

At Prema Health, our holistic approach to gynaecological care emphasises early detection, personalised treatment plans, and patient education. We strive to empower women with knowledge about their bodies and provide compassionate care to enhance their reproductive and overall health. Regular gynaecological appointments are essential for maintaining wellness and addressing any concerns promptly, ensuring optimal health throughout all stages of life.
