A gynecologist is a medical Doctor Who has specialized in issues regarding a woman's reproductive system (ovaries, uterus, vagina) and often in conditions regarding urinary tract issues, such as stress incontinence. This second specialization may overlap the work aurologist does. Gynecologists are trained to evaluate, recognize and treat potential disease of the reproductive system, and are also trained surgically to perform surgeries like hysterectomies, (removal of the uterus). Women who are eighteen, or younger if they are sexually active, should see a gynecologist yearly to be evaluated for conditions like Cervical cancer.
Many gynecologists are not only expert in women's health issues but are also obstetricians. This means they may help women who are having reproductive issues and also oversee the care of pregnant women, and are present for the birth of children. They not only aid in labor and delivery, but can perform cesarean sections, induce labor, halt premature labor, or perform any other treatment required before, during or immediately after a woman has given birth. Some obstetricians specialize in working with women who have high-risk pregnancies, and others are trained in neonatology so they can address the needs of newborns and pregnant moms.
The job of an obstetrician/gynecolgist is to provideis a physician specialist who provides medical and surgical care to women and has particular expertise in pregnancy, childbirth, and disorders of the reproductive system. This includes preventative care, prenatal care, detection of sexually transmitted diseases, Pap test screening, and family planning.
