Gynaecologist & Obstetrician :
A gynaecologist & obstetrician, or OB/GYN for short, is a specialist who has the knowledge and skills to treat problems in the female reproductive system. These are the doctors who assist females in conceiving a child, taking care of their body during pregnancy and assisting during labour or performing a caesarean section. Additionally, OB/GYNs treat problems such as cancer in the female reproductive system, sexually transmitted infections, growths in the vagina and issues related to menses, among others. An MBBS graduate can become an OB/GYN by earning a Master of Surgery in Obstetrics and Gynaecology or an equivalent qualification. It is important to consult a gynaecologist & obstetrician for symptoms such as lumps in the breasts or pelvis, unusual discharge from the vagina or the breasts, excessively painful periods or any other concerns related to the reproductive organs.
