Gynecology is a branch of medicine that focuses on caring
for the sexual and reproductive health of women. When we talk about sexual care
we refer to the prevention of diseases in the female reproductive system and
the breasts.
In this sense, gynecology is going to study the vagina, the
ovaries and the uterus. It focuses on the detection of diseases such as cancer,
endometriosis, fibroids, ovarian cysts, incontinence and other similar
conditions.
Not only that, gynecology is also focused on female hormonal
problems, especially those that occur in women when they are pregnant, during
their menstruation and menopause.
The prevention of gynecological diseases should be a crucial
element in the medical consultations of all women. If you go to this
specialist, you may wonder what he can do for you. Here we explain it:
It is recommended that women go for control at least once a year. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that women’s health ─both girls and women─ is related to sex, gender and social aspects of medical access.
Here lies the importance of visiting the gynecologist to
receive:
• Gynecological ultrasounds. Through this procedure it will
be possible to see how the woman’s lower abdomen and pelvis are.
• Breast analysis. Through observation and palpation, it is
sought to see if there are lumps, masses or anomalies that may be malignant or
benign, and the most appropriate treatment will be referred.
• Pap smear. This test consists of taking samples from the
cervix to rule out cancer cells.
• Contraceptives. The gynecologist is in charge of
prescribing, in a timely manner, a sexual care treatment that prevents an
unwanted pregnancy.
• Obstetric consultations. It is a branch of gynecology that
focuses on the care of pregnant women.
All this helps in the prevention of diseases such as cancer
and sexually transmitted infections. Visit your specialist regularly. Care and
prevention depends on you.
