Care Begins with Understanding
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)Clear, reliable answers to help you understand your health, fertility, and care options
General Gynaecology
You should consult a gynaecologist if you notice changes in your menstrual cycle, heavy or prolonged bleeding, severe cramps, unusual vaginal discharge, pelvic pain, pain during intercourse, or difficulty conceiving. However, consultation is not only symptom-based. Even if you feel well, an annual gynaecological check-up is recommended for preventive screening and early detection of conditions that may not show obvious symptoms initially. Early evaluation often leads to simpler and more effective treatment.
Laparoscopic & Surgical Care
Laparoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive surgical technique performed through small incisions using specialised instruments and a high-definition camera. It is commonly used to treat fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, ectopic pregnancy, and certain hysterectomies. Compared to traditional open surgery, it typically results in less post-operative pain, smaller scars, shorter hospital stay, and faster recovery.
Obstetrics (Pregnancy Care)
Your first visit is ideally scheduled around 6–8 weeks of pregnancy (about 2–4 weeks after a missed period). This allows confirmation of the pregnancy, basic blood tests, and an early ultrasound if needed. If you have prior medical conditions, irregular cycles, or previous pregnancy concerns, you may be advised to come in earlier.
Infertility & Fertility Care
Irregular cycles can occur due to hormonal imbalance, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), thyroid disorders, significant weight changes, stress, excessive exercise, or structural abnormalities within the uterus. Sometimes lifestyle factors contribute; in other cases, medical treatment may be necessary. Identifying the exact cause allows targeted management rather than temporary cycle suppression.
