It’s a medical specialty focusing on women’s health, including pregnancy (obstetrics) and the female reproductive system (gynaecology).

OB-GYNs provide a wide range, from routine checkups and preventive care to pregnancy care, childbirth, minimally invasive surgery, and treatment for various gynaecological conditions.

Schedule your first well-woman exam at 13-15 and regularly throughout your life. See an OB-GYN for any concerns about reproductive health, menstruation, or pregnancy planning.

These include irregular periods, pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, vaginal discharge, and difficulty with urination or intercourse.

Depending on your needs, OB-GYNs use tests like Pap smears, pelvic exams, ultrasounds, blood tests, and biopsies.

Limb lengthening surgery is a procedure that gradually increases the length of bones in the arms or legs to correct discrepancies.

Candidates include individuals with bladder cancer, severe bladder damage, or other complex bladder conditions that require surgical intervention.
