Gynecology is a branch of medicine that studies the physiological and pathological states of the female reproductive system at every age. Apart from obstetrics, which deals with the physiology and pathology of pregnancy, this field of medicine studies diseases of the female urogenital sphere: diagnosis, treatment, prevention.

A gynecologist's consultation is a necessary procedure for maintaining women's health and preventing diseases. Increased attention to one's female health is particularly important during life stages such as puberty, pregnancy, and menopause. During these stages, the female body is most vulnerable and requires special care.

By visiting the gynecologists at the EVIMED Clinic, you receive a comprehensive range of services, including highly qualified assistance from experienced doctors, a friendly atmosphere, state-of-the-art medical equipment, and an individualized approach to diagnosis and treatment based on the latest scientific achievements.

  • When is it necessary to consult a specialist?

    The level of medical development allows for the prevention or early detection of gynecological diseases for their most effective treatment. Self-treatment in this field is unacceptable and can cause irreparable harm to the female body.

    A preventive gynecological examination at least twice a year is a measure that significantly reduces the risk of developing serious female body diseases. Timely consultation with a specialist can preserve a woman's health and detect diseases at the earliest possible stage. This is necessary to not overlook asymptomatic disorders that lead to serious diseases. For example, cervical erosion often goes unnoticed by the woman, yet this condition can often become one of the factors in the development of cervical cancer.

    All manipulations are performed with disposable instruments, preventing the penetration of infection into the woman’s body.
