Obstetricians and gynecologists, commonly referred to as OBGYNs, provide a wide range of healthcare services to women. While they are often associated with pregnancy care and annual checkups, there are many lesser-known services that they provide. In this article, we will explore some of these unique offerings and delve into the full scope of care that you can expect from Comprehensive OB/GYN in Frisco, Texas.

Understanding the full scope of OBGYN services

OBGYNs are medical doctors who specialize in women's reproductive health, including pregnancy, childbirth, and women's general health concerns. OBGYNs are qualified to provide a comprehensive approach to women's healthcare, which encompasses preventative care, screenings, diagnosis, treatment, and management of a variety of health issues.

However, the scope of services provided by OBGYNs extends far beyond just pregnancy and childbirth. OBGYNs are trained to address a wide range of women's health concerns, including menstrual issues, fertility problems, menopause management, and gynecological cancers.

Being aware of the full range of services provided by OBGYNs can help you make informed decisions about your healthcare, and get the best possible care for your specific needs.

Why is Comprehensive Care so Important?

A comprehensive approach to healthcare focuses on addressing the diverse needs and concerns women experience throughout their lives. This includes but is not limited to reproductive health, family planning, menopause management, and general well-being. By offering a broad range of services, our OBGYNs can work with you to develop a personalized health plan.

Regular appointments with an OBGYN can not ony help you build a trusting relationship with our healthcare providers, but also help ensure that you’re receiving the care you need, when you need, and no concerns are left unaddressed. At our clinc, it’s our OBGYNs priority to also provide valuable education and resources to help you make informed decisions about your health and well-being.

It’s a common misconception that OBGYNs are only needed during pregnancy or for annual checkups. But in reality, OBGYNs can provide valuable services for women at any stage of their lives, from adolescence to post-menopause. OBGYNs can help women understand their bodies and manage their health throughout various milestones and transitions.

Fertility and family planning services

Beyond pregnancy and childbirth care, OBGYNs offer a range of fertility and family planning services. These lesser-known offerings can help women with infertility, preconception planning, and contraceptive options.

Infertility evaluation and treatment

Infertility is often a challenging and emotional experience for many women. Fortunately, our OBGYNs can help diagnose and treat infertility issues. An infertility evaluation at our clinic may include tests to assess hormone levels, ovulation, and ovarian reserve, as well as imaging studies, and when necessary, surgical procedures. These tests can help identify the underlying causes of infertility and determine the best course of treatment for you.

Treatment options for infertility may include:

  • Fertility medications to stimulate ovulation
  • Intrauterine insemination (IUI), or
  • Assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF).

By providing infertility evaluation and treatment services, our OBGYNs can support women on their journey to start a family.

Contraceptive options and counseling

OBGYNs offer a wide range of contraceptive options and can counsel women on the best choices for their individual needs and lifestyle. These options include hormonal methods such as birth control pills, patches, and injections, as well as intrauterine devices (IUDs).

Our OBGYNs can discuss the benefits and risks of each contraceptive method and help patients choose the best option based on factors such as effectiveness, convenience, and side effects.
