Gynaecology and Obstetrics
The Gynecology and Obstetrics Department: A Vital Pillar of Our Hospital’s Healthcare Services, specializing in the comprehensive care of women’s reproductive health, pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care. Led by skilled gynecologists and obstetricians, the department offers a wide range of services tailored to meet the unique needs of women across different stages of life.
Gynecology focuses on the medical and surgical management of conditions related to the female reproductive system. This includes routine gynecological exams, Pap smears, breast exams, contraceptive counseling, management of menstrual disorders, treatment of infections (such as UTIs and sexually transmitted infections), and evaluation and management of conditions like endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, and pelvic inflammatory disease.
The Obstetrics component of the department is dedicated to prenatal care, childbirth, and postpartum care for expectant mothers. Obstetricians work closely with pregnant women to monitor their health and the health of their developing babies throughout pregnancy. They provide prenatal screenings, ultrasounds, genetic testing, and guidance on nutrition, exercise, and childbirth preparation. Obstetricians also manage high-risk pregnancies, complications during labor, and perform deliveries, including vaginal deliveries and cesarean sections (C-sections) when necessary.
The Gynecology and Obstetrics Department offers a range of specialized services, including:
- Family planning and contraception services, such as birth control pills, intrauterine devices (IUDs), contraceptive implants, and sterilization procedures.
- Fertility evaluations and treatments for couples experiencing difficulties conceiving, including assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF).
- Gynecologic oncology services for the diagnosis and treatment of gynecological cancers such as ovarian, cervical, uterine, and vulvar cancers.
- Menopause management, hormone replacement therapy, and treatment of menopausal symptoms such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, and osteoporosis.
The department emphasizes patient education, preventive care, and women’s wellness, promoting regular screenings, vaccinations (such as HPV vaccines), and lifestyle counseling to maintain optimal reproductive and overall health. The compassionate and multidisciplinary approach of the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department ensures that women receive comprehensive care, support, and guidance throughout their reproductive journey, from adolescence to menopause and beyond.
