What does preventative gynecology involve?
Preventive gynecology is a branch of medicine that focuses on promoting women’s reproductive health through preventative measures. It includes a range of strategies to prevent and detect gynecologic conditions such as cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
Preventative gynecology encompasses a variety of health interventions including:
- Regular gynecologic exams, including pelvic exams, Pap smears, and breast exams
- Vaccination against human papillomavirus (HPV), which can cause cervical cancer
- Education and counselling on safe sex practices to prevent the transmission of STIs
- Screening for sexually transmitted infections such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, and HIV
- Lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet and exercise routine to reduce the risk of obesity and related conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
