Gynaecological care is essential—not just when something feels wrong, but as part of your regular health routine.
Annual gynaecological exams help detect early signs of conditions like cervical cancer, infections, fibroids, or ovarian cysts—even before symptoms appear. These visits support your overall well-being and peace of mind.
Don’t ignore signs like:
These could indicate PCOS, endometriosis, infections, fibroids, or other treatable conditions.
Whether it’s contraception, fertility, or menstrual concerns, a gynaecologist can help you make informed, confident decisions about your body.
If your period pain disrupts your daily activities, doesn’t improve with over-the-counter medications, or if you experience sudden new pain that you haven’t had before, it’s a good idea to consult a specialist.
Signs include severe cramps, irregular periods, very heavy bleeding, spotting between periods, or periods that last longer than a week.
Hormonal contraceptives may regulate your cycle and reduce the intensity of menstrual cramps and bleeding.
Occasional irregularity is common, especially during adolescence or perimenopause. However, persistent irregularities should be evaluated.
Common causes include endometriosis, fibroids, adenomyosis, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), among others.
Most women experience menopause between the ages of 45 and 55, with the average age being around 51. However, symptoms can begin several years earlier during the perimenopausal stage.
If menopausal symptoms are affecting your daily life or you have concerns about early menopause, it is best to consult a healthcare professional.
Yes, menopause before the age of 40 is called premature menopause or premature ovarian insufficiency. It requires medical evaluation and management.
HRT is safe for most women when prescribed appropriately. Your doctor will assess the benefits and risks based on your personal health history.
Yes, lifestyle changes such as a balanced diet, regular exercise, stress management, and non-hormonal medications can help manage symptoms effectively.
You should consult a doctor if you experience persistent pelvic pain, pain during intercourse, changes in bladder or bowel habits, or emotional distress related to sexual health.
Symptoms such as pain during sex, chronic genital discomfort, urinary incontinence, or a bulging sensation in the pelvic area may indicate an underlying issue that requires medical attention.
Yes, many pelvic and sexual health conditions can impact physical comfort, emotional well-being, and intimate relationships. Early diagnosis and treatment can greatly improve your quality of life.
Yes, many women experience sexual and pelvic health concerns at some point in their lives, especially after childbirth, during menopause, or due to stress or trauma. You are not alone, and help is available.
Not always. Many conditions can be managed with conservative approaches such as physiotherapy, counselling, or lifestyle changes. Treatment is always tailored to your individual needs.
Ideally, you should schedule a pre-pregnancy check at least three to six months before trying to conceive. This allows time to address any health issues and prepare your body for pregnancy.
It typically includes a review of your medical and family history, physical examination, blood tests for hormones and infections. Additional tests may be advised based on your individual needs.
Yes, even if you feel well, a pre-pregnancy check can uncover silent health concerns—such as nutritional deficiencies or underlying conditions—that may affect conception or pregnancy outcomes.
Absolutely. If you’ve experienced miscarriage, gestational diabetes, or any other complications in a previous pregnancy, a pre-pregnancy check helps your doctor plan for a safer and healthier next pregnancy.
Yes, involving your partner can be beneficial, especially when addressing fertility, genetic risks, or shared lifestyle habits.
It is recommended to schedule your first antenatal appointment as soon as you confirm your pregnancy – ideally around 6 to 8 weeks. Early care helps establish your due date, assess your overall health, and begin essential prenatal screenings.
Antenatal visits typically occur once every four weeks in the first 28 weeks, fortnightly until 36 weeks, and then weekly until delivery. Your schedule may vary depending on your individual needs or if your pregnancy is considered high-risk, such as in IVF pregnancies.
Scans and tests are done at key stages to monitor your baby’s development and your health. These include early pregnancy scans, the 20-week anomaly scan, glucose testing for gestational diabetes, and routine blood and urine tests.
If you experience unusual symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, bleeding, or reduced foetal movement, contact your obstetrician immediately.
A high-risk pregnancy is one in which the health or life of the mother or baby may be at greater risk due to existing medical conditions, pregnancy-related complications, or factors such as age, multiple pregnancies, or past obstetric history. These pregnancies require closer monitoring and specialised care.
Warning signs may include severe abdominal pain, heavy bleeding, high blood pressure, severe headaches, swelling of the hands or face, reduced foetal movement, or signs of preterm labour. If you notice any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.
You should consult a doctor as early as possible—ideally before conception or immediately after a positive pregnancy test—if you have underlying health issues or have experienced complications in past pregnancies. Early assessment helps create a safe and personalised care plan.
Yes, many women with high-risk pregnancies go on to have healthy babies. With early diagnosis, regular monitoring, and expert medical care, potential risks can be managed effectively to support a positive pregnancy outcome.
High-risk pregnancies often involve more frequent antenatal visits, specialised tests such as detailed ultrasounds or blood work, and consultations with obstetricians or maternal-foetal medicine specialists. Your care plan will be tailored to your specific needs to ensure the best outcomes for both mother and baby.
Vaginal bleeding and discharge are normal after birth and may continue for several weeks, gradually decreasing over time.
Many women experience some natural weight loss after delivery, but the amount and pace vary for each person.
Breast engorgement is common a few days after birth. Frequent breastfeeding on both breasts can help relieve soreness and fullness.
Mild pain is normal. Your doctor may recommend over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen or acetaminophen to ease discomfort.
Gentle activities like walking and pelvic floor exercises are usually safe once your doctor gives clearance—typically at your postpartum check-up.
Stitches usually heal within a few weeks with proper care and hygiene.
Most doctors recommend waiting about six weeks, or until your body has healed. Always consult your O&G specialist before resuming sex.
Signs include prolonged sadness, mood swings, irritability, fatigue, and loss of interest in daily activities. If these feelings persist, seek support early—it’s important for both you and your baby.
Yes. Many women experience “postnatal blues” in the first few days or weeks. But if you feel overwhelmed or persistently low, talk to a healthcare provider.
You should consult a doctor if you experience persistent issues such as erectile dysfunction, premature ejaculation, low libido, pain during intercourse, difficulty conceiving, or any unusual symptoms affecting your reproductive system. Early diagnosis can significantly improve treatment outcomes.
Common signs may include difficulty conceiving despite regular unprotected sex, low sperm count or poor sperm motility (identified through semen analysis), swelling or pain in the testicles, or hormonal symptoms such as reduced facial hair or low libido.
Not necessarily. Erectile dysfunction (ED) can have both physical and psychological causes. Physical causes include conditions like diabetes, cardiovascular disease, or low testosterone. Psychological factors such as stress, anxiety, or relationship issues can also contribute. A thorough assessment helps identify the cause.
A vasectomy reversal is one option, where the vas deferens is surgically reconnected. In some cases, sperm retrieval methods like TESE or TESA can be used in conjunction with assisted reproductive techniques such as IVF.
Low testosterone or other hormonal imbalances can affect sperm production, libido, energy levels, and mood. Blood tests can identify imbalances, and hormone therapy may help restore normal function and improve quality of life.
You should consider seeing a fertility specialist if:
Early assessment allows for faster answers, appropriate treatment, and a clearer plan forward.
Several health conditions may affect fertility in women. Common causes include:
Several health conditions may affect fertility in male. Common causes include:
Fertility screening can help identify medical conditions that cause infertility early. This allows for timely treatment, improves the chances of conception, and helps avoid unnecessary stress, heartache, and disappointment.
You may consider seeing a clinical sexologist if you’re experiencing any of the following:
For Individuals or Couples:
You don’t have to wait until you face problems. The best time is when you’re thinking about starting a family – early screening helps you plan better and take action if needed.
Yes. Many people with normal cycles or no obvious symptoms can still face fertility issues, which is why screening is important even if everything seems normal.
Yes, it gives you a clearer picture of your fertility health so you can make informed decisions – whether to conceive now, wait, or consider options like egg or sperm freezing.
No. It’s a simple, non-invasive process involving blood tests, scans, and sample collection – all done during a clinic visit with no downtime required.
Don’t worry – our team will guide you through your options, including lifestyle changes, treatment plans, or advanced fertility support like IUI or IVF if needed.
IUI involves placing sperm directly into the uterus, while IVF involves fertilizing eggs with sperm in a lab before transferring the resulting embryo to the uterus.
IUI has a success rate of around 10-12% per cycle, which can increase to 20% with fertility medication.
IVF generally has a higher success rate than IUI, especially for couples with severe infertility or those who are older.
It depends on your specific fertility challenges, age, and budget. It’s crucial to have a thorough discussion with a fertility specialist to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for your individual need.
Key considerations:
IUI is generally recommended for couples under 35, while IVF is often considered for those 35 or older, especially if they have a history of unsuccessful IUI attempts.
IVF is often recommended for couples facing severe infertility, such as blocked fallopian tubes, severe male factor infertility, or unexplained infertility.
IUI is generally more affordable than IVF, making it a good option for couples who are on a budget.
IVF generally has higher success rates, but it’s important to weigh the costs, physical and emotional stress versus benefits of each treatment option.
An IVF cycle, from start to finish, typically takes around 4 to 8 weeks. This includes initial consultations, ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, fertilization, embryo transfer, and the pregnancy test.
Hormonal injections are used to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
Mature eggs are collected from the ovaries through a minimally invasive procedure guided by ultrasound.
The eggs are frozen and stored in a liquid nitrogen tank for long-term storage.
When ready to conceive, the eggs are thawed and fertilized with sperm in vitro, and the resulting embryos are implanted in the uterus.
Success rates vary depending on several factors, including:
There is no time limit on how long eggs can be frozen, as they can be stored indefinitely without a decrease in quality.
Yes, there is a procedure cost, and yearly storage.
With good ovarian function, between 10 and 15 mature eggs can be retrieved from one procedure.
No, egg freezing does not harm your natural fertility or reduce your ability to conceive naturally later on.
The eggs collected during the freezing process are from that specific cycle and do not affect the number of eggs your body will release in future cycles. Your ovaries will continue to function normally, and you can still try to conceive naturally when you’re ready.
Egg freezing simply gives you more options—and peace of mind—for the future.
The procedure involves removing a small segment of ovarian tissue through a minimally invasive surgery, which is then carefully frozen using advanced cryogenic techniques and stored for reimplantation when you’re ready to restore fertility or hormone function.
Once frozen, your ovarian tissue is stored in a specialized cryobank under controlled conditions, keeping it viable for many years until it is needed for future fertility or hormone restoration procedures.
Yes, when you decide to build your family, the stored ovarian tissue can be thawed and reimplanted to potentially restore natural fertility and hormone production, though success rates vary based on individual factors.
Ovarian tissue can be stored for many years—often over a decade—under proper cryogenic conditions, allowing for a flexible timeline when planning for future fertility or hormonal needs.
Success rates vary depending on your age, health, and the underlying reason for preservation; many women have successfully restored ovarian function and achieved pregnancy following reimplantation of frozen tissue.
It’s usually collected through masturbation at the clinic. If that’s not possible, other methods like testicular sperm extraction (TESE) may be used.
Sperm can be stored indefinitely – as long as the samples are properly preserved. Successful pregnancies have occurred with sperm frozen for over 20 years.
Some sperm may not survive the thawing process, but many do. The quality depends on the initial sperm health before freezing.
Yes. It is recommended to clear old sperm 3–4 days before giving your sample and remain abstinent afterward to ensure optimal sperm quality.
