What Does a Gynecologist Do?




A gynecologist specializes in health issues related to the woman's reproductive system, including the vagina, uterus and urinary tract. These professionals also usually work in obstetrics, meaning that they assist women before, during and after the give birth. Visiting a Dr. Michelle Wong's practice in Sugar Land, Texas is the best way to get preventative care and to ensure that any conditions are caught early and treated appropriately.

There are many reasons that women see gynecologists:

Ø  Many women begin making appointments to learn about their birth control options; they may learn about intrauterine devices, birth control pills, Depo Provera and other methods to prevent conception during sexual intercourse. Some of the hormonal options are also used to treat certain ailments and disorders.

Ø  These specialists can also check for potentially fatal diseases, such as cervical cancer. This and other conditions make it important to see a gynecologist to avoid the negative consequences of neglecting reproductive health. If abnormalities are found during an examination, women may require additional testing, treatments or, potentially, a hysterectomy.

Ø  Women should also see their doctors throughout the course of pregnancy and after they have given birth to ensure that the healing process is moving along smoothly.

What Happens During a Visit

A typical gynecological examination begins with patient being asked to undress from the waist down and to put on a paper gown, either once the nurse or doctor has left the room or in a separate bathroom. The doctor will then enter and ask questions about the patient's sexual history, menstrual cycle, birth control methods, and whether or not the individual has any concerns about her body. The gynecologist will ask the patient to lie down on the bed before using a speculum that will help to swab the cervix for a cancer screening, also known as a Pap smear. Patients can also ask for a sexually transmitted disease test that may involve a urine sample or swabbing with a Q-tip.


Every woman who is either sexually active or is at least 18-years old should be visiting a gynecologist in Sugar Land TX on an annual basis. The Dr. Wong can answer any questions patients have about their reproductive health as well as offer services and treatments based on need. While, many women feel nervous about seeing a gynecologist for the first time, it is an essential part of taking care of one's health that becomes much easier with experience.

I had my TL a little more than a year ago when my third child was born via c-section. I was not told ANYTHING about the possible side effects of having this proceedure. Since then I have experienced heavy bleeding lasting sometimes 3 weeks out of the month, weight gain, severe mood swings. Severe cramping, changes to my libido, severe depression accompanied by suicidal thoughts, headaches, migraines, many new symptoms & older issues are now exacerbated. The father of two of my children doesn't want me anymore. I've become too much of a pain in the ass I guess. We don't talk. We don't sleep in the same bed. I think he might really think I am crazy... & maybe I am. I feel crazy a lot of the time.
I'm unpredictable. I feel so angry about the whole thing & now what was once a mild fear of doctors has exploded into full on white coat syndrome that causes me to have a panic attack/hypertensive emergency (severe increase in blood pressure) whenever I have to deal with them. I'm not sure what to do... I fear the next time I have to see a doctor I'll have a stroke or a heart attack from the stress & anxiety of it... what do I do? I take my time and keep searching on internet looking for natural healing that how I came across Dr Itua herbal center website and I was so excited when Dr Itua told me to calm down that he will help me with his natural remedy I put my hope on him so I purchase his herbal medicines which was shipped to my address I used it as prescribed guess what? I'm totally healed my cramp pain is gone completely I also used his Anti Bacteria herbal medicines it's works for me very well I want anyone with health problem to contact Dr Itua herbal center for any kind diseases remedies such as Parkinson, Herpes, ALS, MS, Diabetes, Hepatitis, Hiv/Aids,Cancers, Men & Women Infertility, I got his email address  drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com he has any kind of herbal remedies for women & men also for our babes. I really miss my Hunni...he's a fantastic father & a good man. He doesn't deserve this. I feel like an empty shell of who I used to be.
