Obstetrician and Gynaecologist

Obstetrician and Gynaecologist:

An obstetrician/gynaecologist is a physician specialist who provides medical and surgical care to women and has particular expertise in pregnancy, childbirth, and disorders of the reproductive system.
This includes preventative care, prenatal care, detection of sexually transmitted diseases, Pap test screening, family planning, etc.
Both obstetricians and gynaecologists help maintain women's reproductive health, though the positions differ. Gynaecologists screen for HPV and other STDs, help manage contraceptives, and assist patients with issues like abnormal bleeding. Those who are also obstetricians, often referred to as OB-GYNs, deliver babies and monitor mothers-to-be throughout pregnancy.
