What Is a Gynecologist ?
A gynecologist is a doctor who specializes in female reproductive health. They

uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries and breasts.

exams, Pap tests, cancer screenings, and testing and treatment for vaginal
infections.
• They diagnose and treat reproductive system disorders such as endometriosis,
infertility, ovarian cysts, and pelvic pain. They may also care for people with ovarian,
cervical, and other reproductive cancers.

and birth. If a gynecologist has expertise in obstetrics, they’re called an OB-GYN.
5. Fertility Treatment
• Many women need special medical treatment to help them get pregnant. This
kind of treatment is called fertility treatment.
• Infertility is when you’re not able to get pregnant (conceive) after one year (or
longer) of having unprotected sex.
• For pregnancy to happen, sperm from a male needs to be joined with an egg
from a female. For many couples without infertility, this may happen when:
• A woman’s body releases an egg from one of her ovaries (also called ovulation)
• A man’s sperm joins the egg along the way (also called fertilize)
• The fertilized egg travels through the fallopian tube toward the uterus (womb)
• The fertilized egg attaches to the inside of the uterus (implantation)
6. Pregnancy Care
• Prenatal care helps decrease risks during pregnancy and increases the
chance of a safe and healthy delivery. Regular prenatal visits can help
your doctor monitor your pregnancy and identify any problems or
complications before they become serious.

being born at a low birth weight. Newborns with low birth weight are
five times more likely to die than those whose mothers received
prenatal care.
