Obstetrics and gynaecology are medical specialities that focus on two different aspects of the female reproductive system.

Obstetrics deals with the care of pregnant women, the unborn baby, labour and delivery and the immediate period following childbirth. The obstetrician ensures that mother and child get the best prenatal care to ensure labour and delivery is accomplished without complications and should intervention be required, it is done quickly and safely.

Gynaecology deals with any ailment concerning the reproductive organs like the uterus, fallopian tubes, cervix, ovaries and vagina. A gynaecologist may also treat related problems in the bowel, bladder and urinary system since these are closely related to female reproductive organs.

Every woman suffers from gynaecological disorders at some point in life and this should not be taken lightly. It is of utmost importance to understand the symptoms and seek immediate treatment from the gynaecologist.

Common gynaecological disorders include

• Painful Menstruation
• Excess Vaginal Discharge
• Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
• Irregular Periods
• Fibroids
• Pelvic Inflammatory Disease
• Vaginal Bleeding
• Vaginitis
• Menopause
• Painful Intercourse
• Endometriosis

Symptoms of Gynecological Problems

Symptoms may result from mild infections that are easy to treat. However, if they are not treated properly, they can result in serious conditions, including kidney damage. Vaginal symptoms may also be a sign of serious problems, such as cancers of the reproductive tract. Some symptoms and signs include:

• Bleeding between periods
• Frequent and urgent need to urinate or a burning sensation during urination
• Abnormal vaginal bleeding
• Bleeding after menopause
• Pain in the pelvis unlike menstrual cramps
• Itching, burning, swelling, redness, or soreness in the vaginal area
• Sores or lumps in the genital area
• Vaginal discharge with an unpleasant or unusual odour, or of an unusual colour
• Increased vaginal discharge

Cervical Cancer is the most serious condition of obstetrics and gynaecology. Cervical cancer happens when cells change in a woman’s cervix, which connects the uterus and vagina. This cancer can affect the deeper tissues of their cervix and may spread to other parts of their body, often the lungs, liver, bladder, vagina, and rectum.

Risk Factors of Cervical Cancer

One might be at higher risk of cervical cancer if they have

• Started having intercourse before age 16 or within a year of starting your menstruation
• Multiple sexual partners
• Smoked cigarettes
• A weakened immune system
• A sexually transmitted disease (STD)

Symptoms of Cervical Cancer

During the early stage of cervical cancer, there will be no symptoms at all. However, women should have regular cervical smear tests or Pap tests.

• Pain during intercourse
• Unusual vaginal bleeding
• Unusual vaginal discharge

After the spread, cancer can cause:

• Pelvic pain
• Trouble peeing
• Swollen legs
• Kidney failure
• Bone pain
• Weight loss and lack of appetite
• Fatigue
