Gynecology
Gynecology is a specialized field of medicine that focuses on women’s reproductive health and overall well-being. It encompasses the diagnosis, treatment, and management of conditions related to the female reproductive system, including the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and vagina.

Menstrual Problems
Menstrual problems refer to any issues related to a woman’s menstrual cycle, including the timing, flow, and physical and emotional symptoms. These problems can disrupt daily life and may indicate underlying health issues that require medical attention.
Menopause
Menopause is a natural biological process that marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years. It occurs when the ovaries stop producing eggs and menstruation ceases permanently. Typically, menopause is diagnosed after a woman has gone without a menstrual period for 12 consecutive months. This transition is a normal part of aging and usually happens around the age of 45 to 55, although it can occur earlier or later for some women.
Adenomyosis
Adenomyosis is a medical condition where the tissue that normally lines the uterus (endometrium) begins to grow into the muscular wall of the uterus (myometrium). This can cause the uterus to become enlarged, tender, and painful, especially during menstruation.
Uterine Fibroids
Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas or myomas, are non-cancerous growths that develop in the muscular wall of the uterus. They can vary in size, ranging from small seedlings that are undetectable by the human eye to large masses that can distort the shape and size of the uterus. Fibroids are common among women of reproductive age and can cause a variety of symptoms depending on their size, number, and location within the uterus.
Ovarian Cyst
An ovarian cyst is a fluid-filled sac that forms on or inside an ovary. Ovaries are reproductive organs located on each side of the uterus in women. Most ovarian cysts are benign (non-cancerous) and often go away on their own without causing any symptoms. However, some cysts can cause problems and may require medical attention.
Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer is a type of cancer that develops in the cells of the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. It is most commonly caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), a sexually transmitted infection. When left untreated, abnormal cells in the cervix can become cancerous over time, leading to cervical cancer.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) Vaccine
The HPV vaccine is primarily designed to protect against infections caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a common virus that can be transmitted through sexual contact. The vaccine helps prevent HPV infections, particularly those caused by certain high-risk HPV types that are known to cause various cancers and low-risk types that can cause genital warts.
3D – 4D Sonography in Gynecology
3D and 4D sonography are advanced imaging techniques used in medical diagnostics, particularly in gynecology. Unlike traditional 2D ultrasound, which provides two-dimensional images, 3D ultrasound creates three-dimensional images of the internal organs, offering a more detailed view. 4D ultrasound, on the other hand, adds the element of time to the 3D imaging, allowing for real-time visualization of movement, such as fetal activity during pregnancy.
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI)
A Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is an infection in any part of the urinary system, which includes the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and urethra. Most infections involve the lower urinary tract — the bladder and the urethra. UTIs occur when bacteria, typically from the digestive tract, enter the urinary tract and multiply. While anyone can develop a UTI, they are particularly common among women.
Amenorrhoea
Amenorrhoea is a medical condition characterized by the absence of menstrual periods in women of reproductive age. It can be categorized into two types: primary amenorrhoea, which occurs when a woman has not experienced her first menstrual period by the age of 16, and secondary amenorrhoea, which refers to the absence of menstrual periods for three consecutive cycles or more after previously having regular menstrual cycles.
White discharge – Leucorrhoea
Leucorrhoea is a condition characterized by a white or yellowish vaginal discharge. It can be either normal or a sign of an underlying medical issue. Normal discharge is part of the body’s natural mechanism to maintain vaginal health, but when the discharge becomes excessive or changes in color, odor, or consistency, it may indicate an infection or other health conditions.
Birth control – Contraception
Birth control, also known as contraception, refers to methods or devices used to prevent pregnancy. These methods work by interfering with the process of fertilization or implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterus. Birth control allows individuals to plan and space pregnancies according to their desires and circumstances.
Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP)
Pelvic Organ Prolapse (POP) occurs when the pelvic floor muscles and tissues weaken, causing pelvic organs such as the bladder, uterus, rectum, or intestines to protrude into the vaginal canal. This condition can range from mild to severe, impacting a woman’s quality of life and daily activities.
