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.

Geriatric care focuses on the health and well-being of elderly patients, addressing their unique medical and lifestyle needs.

Look for providers with specialised training in geriatrics, experience with elderly patients, and a comprehensive approach to care.
