When to See a Gynecologist

Signs you shouldn't ignore

If you're experiencing any of these, it's worth a consultation. Early evaluation is rarely a waste of time.

Irregular or Missed Periods

Cycles consistently shorter than 21 or longer than 35 days, or missed for 3+ months without pregnancy.

Heavy or Painful Periods

Soaking through pads or tampons in an hour, or pain that disrupts daily activities. Both deserve evaluation.

Pelvic Pain

Persistent pelvic, lower abdominal or lower back pain unrelated to your cycle.

Unusual Discharge or Bleeding

New discharge with odour, itching, or any bleeding between periods or after intercourse.

Trying to Conceive

Trying for 12+ months (or 6+ months if over 35) without success — or before you start trying if you have known conditions.

Annual Wellness Check

Even when nothing feels wrong — annual checks after age 21 catch issues early.

FAQs

Common gynecology questions

Gynecologists treat conditions of the female reproductive system — menstrual disorders, infections, PCOS, endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, infertility, contraception, and routine wellness screening. Many also handle obstetrics (pregnancy and childbirth).

Annual wellness checks after age 21, before trying to conceive, if periods are irregular or painful, for contraception advice, during and after pregnancy, and for any unexplained pelvic symptoms. Early consultation usually means simpler treatment.

Yes. Our doctors are experienced laparoscopic surgeons, performing minimally invasive procedures for fibroids, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, ectopic pregnancy, hysterectomy, and fertility-enhancing surgeries — with faster recovery and minimal scarring.

Absolutely — and for fertility or contraception consultations, we encourage it. Decisions are better when both partners are informed and involved.

Yes, completely. All consultations and medical records are kept in strict confidence. Information is shared only with your explicit consent.
