General information on medical treatment
Gynecology is the medical field dealing with the reproductive and female sexual system. Among other things, a gynecologist diagnoses and treats medical conditions related to fertility, pregnancy, endocrinology, cervical issues, ovaries, or the uterus, among others. Treatments available at gynecological clinics include fertility treatments, pregnancy-related tests (systemic review, superficial transparency test, amniotic fluid test, glucose load, and more), abortion procedures, cervical examinations, sperm donation, egg freezing, and more. In recent years, there are also more and more gynecological clinics specializing in various types of aesthetic and vaginal treatments.
In addition, despite the definition of gynecologists as female doctors, there are cases where men also seek treatment from gynecologists, for example, in cases of laser treatment for genital lesions or fertility-related issues.
