What can I expect during my initial gynecology appointment?

During your first visit to Aventura OB-GYN Specialists, the providers review your personal and family medical histories to identify potential risk factors for disease. They also discuss your lifestyle, diet, and sexual wellness and can answer any questions you have about your health.

You can also expect a pelvic exam, so the providers can assess the health of your vagina and reproductive organs. They can also complete a Pap smear to collect cell samples from your cervix to identify early warning signs of cancer and manually examine your breasts for lumps or other cancer-related abnormalities. STD screenings are also available.

If your exam reveals underlying health issues or you have an existing gynecological condition, the providers discuss any additional tests or treatments you need to manage it. For instance, if you have irregular periods or other symptoms of a menstrual disorder, the specialists customize a care plan to manage it in the long term.

After your exam, your specialist can review your options for birth control. They also provide family planning services to help you prepare your body for pregnancy. If you have concerns about your sexual, reproductive, or mental health, your visit is a great time to address them with your physician, so you can get the help you deserve.
