1. Obstetrics and Gynaecology
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.
2. PSA TOTAL
The PSA Total Test measures the level of prostate-specific antigen in the blood, helping to screen for prostate cancer, monitor existing conditions, and evaluate treatment effectiveness.
Avoid vigorous activities and sexual activity for 48 hours before the test. Inform your doctor about any medications you are taking. No fasting is required.
Elevated PSA levels may suggest prostate inflammation, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or prostate cancer. Further tests may be required for a definitive diagnosis.
Results are typically available within 24 to 48 hours after the blood sample is collected.
Discuss the results with your healthcare provider to determine the next steps, which may include additional tests or a referral to a specialist for further evaluation.
3. PUS C/S
Pus samples are collected using sterile techniques and cultured to identify the specific microorganisms causing the infection.
Results typically take a few days to allow for culture growth and sensitivity testing. Rapid methods may provide preliminary results sooner.
A positive result indicates the presence of bacteria or fungi in the pus sample, helping to diagnose and treat localized infections effectively.
Yes, the test identifies the specific microorganism causing the infection and determines its susceptibility to antibiotics or antifungal medications.
Minimal risks include slight discomfort during sample collection and rarely, infection at the puncture site. Sterile techniques minimize these risks.
