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.

Some discomfort is expected, but pain is typically managed with medication. Recovery varies based on the surgical approach used.
