What it involves

A gynaecology consultation is an appointment with a doctor about the female reproductive system. The doctor asks about your symptoms, periods, health history and concerns, may carry out an examination and discusses tests or treatment options.

Who it is for

It is for people with symptoms such as pelvic pain, heavy or irregular periods, unusual discharge or bleeding, menopause concerns, contraception questions or fertility concerns. It also includes preventive care such as screening.

How long it usually takes

A consultation commonly takes from twenty minutes to half an hour. Extra time may be needed when tests or scans are carried out.

What to expect

You will be asked questions in private. If an examination is advised, the doctor explains it first, and you can ask for a chaperone or to stop at any point. Tests may include an ultrasound scan or swabs. The doctor discusses next steps with you.

Aftercare

Follow the advice and note any side effects of treatment. Book a review if requested and make sure you know when and how results will be given.

When to seek it

See a doctor when symptoms are new, painful, persistent or affect daily life. Heavy bleeding that soaks through protection very quickly, severe pain or fainting need urgent medical attention.

What affects the cost

Cost depends on the doctor, the length of the visit, any scans or laboratory tests and procedures carried out. HealthNaro shows a price only where a clinic has supplied a figure with a source and date.
