Gynecology Q & A

What is gynecology?

Gynecology is the medical field that manages women’s sexual and reproductive health. The female reproductive tract includes several organs of its own, but gynecology also provides care for secondary sexual characteristics like your breasts. 

Reproductive organs that your gynecologist can assess and treat include:

  • Vagina
  • Vulva
  • Cervix
  • Uterus
  • Fallopian tubes
  • Ovaries

While your gynecologist can evaluate, diagnose, and treat conditions related to these organs, their expertise doesn’t stop there. 

Your gynecologist can also help with birth control prescriptions and management, fertility issues, sexual dysfunction, and certain conditions related to your hormones or psychological health. 

Which conditions can a gynecologist treat?

The Georgia Obstetrics and Gynecology team routinely treats or manages various common and uncommon conditions in the reproductive tract and other women’s health concerns. 

Using diagnostic procedures like pelvic exams, Pap smears, colposcopy, and ultrasound imaging, they can diagnose or monitor:

  • Fibroids
  • Polyps
  • Endometriosis
  • Abnormal bleeding
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
  • Ovarian cysts
  • Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)
  • Pelvic pain

Gynecologists often also practice as obstetricians specializing in pregnancy and prenatal health care. The team at Georgia Obstetrics and Gynecology coordinates your care to help you plan a pregnancy or maintain your and your baby’s health through all three trimesters. 

When should I book a gynecology visit?

There are many reasons to consider scheduling a gynecology visit, but you should book at least one appointment per year as a preventive care measure. 

During your annual visit to Georgia Obstetrics and Gynecology, the team reviews and updates your health history before performing a pelvic examination. 

Depending on your age and risk factors, the team also provides other tests and services during your annual gynecology visits. These include breast exams and mammograms, Pap smears, screening tests involving blood draws or urinalysis, and immunization updates. 

Aside from your annual visits, you can book an appointment with the gynecologists at Georgia Obstetrics and Gynecology to address any new or worsening symptom that comes up. 

In addition, if you already have a diagnosis of endometriosis, PCOS, or any other condition needing long-term management, the team can also help you schedule appointments related to those. 

During any visit to Georgia Obstetrics and Gynecology, you have the opportunity to confidentially ask your providers questions about your sexual and reproductive health. They give you detailed answers and tips for maintaining your health.  

If you’d like to schedule your next annual exam or any other gynecological visit, book an appointment by phone or online at Georgia Obstetrics and Gynecology today.
