Answers First, Then a Plan
Heavy periods, pelvic pain and irregular cycles are common — but common is not the same as normal. Most conditions can be identified in a single visit with an examination and an in-clinic ultrasound.
PCOS
Irregular or absent periods, acne, unwanted hair, weight resistance and fertility difficulty. Diagnosis by history, hormone profile and ovarian ultrasound, then a plan built around your priority — symptoms, metabolic health or conception.
Fibroids
Heavy bleeding, pressure, bloating or fertility impact. Assessment of size, number and position, with medical, hormonal or surgical options explained honestly — including when to simply monitor.
Ovarian Cysts
Most are simple and resolve on their own. Ultrasound characterisation, tumour markers where indicated, and clear criteria for when surgery is genuinely needed.
Endometriosis
Painful periods, pain during intimacy, bowel or bladder symptoms and infertility. Clinical and imaging assessment, hormonal management and laparoscopic referral when appropriate.
Menopause & Perimenopause
Hot flushes, night sweats, sleep disturbance, mood changes, dryness and bone health. Hormonal and non-hormonal options tailored to your risk profile.
Irregular Periods
Cycles that are too long, too short, too heavy or absent. Investigation of thyroid, prolactin, PCOS and structural causes rather than a reflexive prescription.
Pelvic Pain
Chronic or cyclical pain assessed properly — gynaecological, urinary, bowel and musculoskeletal causes considered before anything is dismissed as stress.
Family Planning
Contraception counselling across every method: pills, IUD insertion and removal, implants, injections and permanent options, with realistic side-effect discussion.
Pap Smear
Cervical cytology performed gently, with HPV co-testing where indicated and a clear explanation of what your result means and when to repeat.
Cervical Screening
HPV testing, colposcopy referral for abnormal results, and follow-up scheduling so nothing is lost between appointments.
Hormonal Disorders
Thyroid dysfunction, high prolactin, insulin resistance and androgen excess — investigated together rather than one test at a time.
Infections & Discharge
Recurrent thrush, bacterial vaginosis, urinary infections and persistent discharge, with proper swabs before treatment rather than repeated guesswork.
What a Gynaecology Consultation Involves
Conversation
Your history, cycle, symptoms, previous treatments and what matters most to you — without being interrupted.
Examination
A gentle examination with a female chaperone always available, and nothing done without explaining it first.
Ultrasound
In-clinic pelvic scanning, so you usually leave the same visit knowing what is going on.
Written Plan
Diagnosis, options with pros and cons, prescriptions if needed, and a clear date for review.
Symptoms Worth a Proper Assessment
Many women delay for months. If any of the following describe you, book an appointment rather than searching online for another few weeks.
- Periods that soak through protection hourly, or last more than seven days
- Bleeding between periods, after intimacy, or after menopause
- Pain that stops you working, sleeping or exercising
- Cycles shorter than 21 days or longer than 35 days
- Trying to conceive for 12 months, or 6 months if you are over 35
- A lump, persistent bloating, or a change you cannot explain
Something not feeling right?
Book a gynaecology consultation. Most concerns are straightforward once someone actually looks properly.
