7 QUESTIONS TO ASK YOUR GYNAECOLOGIST

We live in a world where women juggle careers, motherhood, relationships, and a million other responsibilities. But in between taking care of everyone else, many forget to take care of the one person who matters most: themselves.

Women’s health is more than Pap smears and pregnancy check-ups. It’s the daily well-being, hormonal balance, mental health, reproductive education, and the right to ask questions without shame. Staying informed and asking the right questions during a gynaecology visit can make all the difference.

At Avon Medical Practice, we are encouraging women to speak up, get informed, and prioritize their bodies, starting with these 7 essential questions you should be asking your Gynaecologist.

  1. Are My Periods Normal?

Do you often have heavy flow? Painful cramps? Irregular timing? These may signal fibroids, PCOS, or hormonal imbalances. Don’t ignore it, speak up.

  1. What birth control is the best option for me?

The right method depends on your body, age, lifestyle and future. Let your doctor consult and guide you on the right choice.

  1. Do I need an STI test without symptoms?

While many STIs may be silent, it can cause serious complications. Regular health screening is important for long-term reproductive health.

  1. Is this Discharge or odour smell normal?

Don’t self-diagnose. Changes in vaginal discharge, odour, or itching      should be professionally evaluated.

  1. What should I expect as I age?

Changes are bound to happen as we age, from hormonal shifts to menopause, it is important to take control of your health by paying rapt attention to changes. 

  1. How can I protect or improve my fertility?

Fertility is not just a conversation when you are ready to have kids. It is important to ask now, know early, learn side effects and treat immediately.

  1. Is Pap smear, and HPV test important? How often should I get it?

As the body changes, tests are required to clear doubts and confusion. Cervical cancer screening is inevitable, ask your doctor what is appropriate for your age, and medical history.
