What is gynecology?

Gynecology is an area of medicine that addresses a woman’s reproductive health needs. These services are something that every woman needs, regardless of her age, overall health, or family planning goals. 

Physicians specializing in gynecology undergo extensive training in all aspects of women’s health. Dr. Javid continues to seek out opportunities to add to her skills and knowledge, ensuring patients receive the best possible care.

Patient education is an integral part of the process. Dr. Javid works with you to provide the information you need to maximize your health and reduce your risk of gynecologic disease. 

What role does preventive health play in gynecology?

Far too many women only come to see a women’s health specialist once serious symptoms arise. This approach fails to take advantage of all that preventive health offers. 

Routine well-woman exams are an opportunity for Dr. Javid to deliver the screenings appropriate for your age and overall health. These visits are also a chance for you to ask questions and receive guidance on any health topic of your choosing. 

Catching gynecologic disease in the earliest possible stage is the best way to begin an effective treatment plan. Waiting until symptoms become unbearable could complicate your treatment options. There is no need to live with pain or other symptoms when help is available. 

What are some issues that bring women in for gynecology treatment?

Women face a number of potential health challenges as they move through life. While some women will never encounter a serious women’s health issue, others struggle with pain and other symptoms, often for years. 

Dr. Javid works hard to determine the source of symptoms and get you started on a treatment path as soon as possible. Some of the gynecologic issues that bring women in for care include:

• Pelvic pain
• Abnormal bleeding
• Unusual discharge
• Pain during sex
• Urinary incontinence
• Changes in breast tissue
• Loss of interest in sex

No one knows your body better than you do. If you sense something is wrong, don’t hesitate to reach out and schedule a visit at Nür Wellness Clinic. Online booking is available around the clock, and you can always call during normal business hours to find a time that fits your busy schedule.
