Gynaecology

What is Gynaecology?

Gynaecology is a branch of medicine that deals with the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disorders affecting the female reproductive system. This includes the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, and breasts. Regular gynaecological checkups and tests are crucial for early detection of potential issues, allowing for timely intervention and treatment.

Gynaecology focuses on the health and well-being of women, particularly in areas related to the reproductive system. At Life Quest Diagnostics, our gynaecology services are designed to support women at every stage of life, from adolescence to menopause and beyond. We provide comprehensive testing and screenings that are essential for maintaining reproductive health and overall wellness.

Our Gynaecology Services

At Life Quest Diagnostics, we offer a wide range of gynaecological services, including:

• Pap Smear: A Pap smear is a screening test used to detect abnormal cells in the cervix, which can be an early sign of cervical cancer. Regular Pap smears are vital for early detection and prevention of cervical cancer.

• Hormonal Testing: Hormonal imbalances can affect a woman’s health in many ways, from menstrual irregularities to fertility issues. We offer tests that measure hormone levels, helping diagnose conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), menopause, and thyroid disorders.

• Pregnancy Testing and Monitoring: Whether you’re confirming a pregnancy or monitoring its progress, our diagnostic services include reliable pregnancy tests and ultrasounds. We provide the necessary information to ensure a healthy pregnancy and delivery.

• Fertility Assessments: For women experiencing difficulties with conception, we offer a range of fertility tests to identify potential issues. These assessments are the first step towards understanding and addressing fertility concerns.

• STD Testing: Regular testing for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) is essential for sexual health. We offer comprehensive STD screenings to detect infections early and provide appropriate treatment.
