Obstetrician is concerned with women during and a little after pregnancy. Obstetricians are also concerned with the health of the fetus. Obstetrics, which focuses on the care of women before, during, and after childbirth; and gynecology, which involves the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the female reproductive system, breasts, and associated disorders. Relationships with patients are long-term and are often maintained from puberty and reproductive life up to the postmenopausal stage of a patient's life.

Infertility Workup

Infertility is defined as the inability to conceive a child despite trying for 1 year. The condition affects about 5.3 million Indians, or 15% of the reproductive age population. Impairment in any step of this intricate process of conception can cause infertility. For a woman to become pregnant, her partner’s sperm quantity and quality must be adequate enough to fertilize her egg. An egg, released by the woman’s ovaries, must be in the fallopian tube ready to be fertilized. Next, the fertilized egg, called an embryo, must make its way through an open-ended fallopian tube into the uterus, implant in the uterine lining, and be sustained there while it grows. Depending on what the tests turn up, different treatments are recommended. Drugs or surgery are used to treat infertility in 80% to 90% of cases. New, more complex assisted reproductive technologies, or ART procedures, include In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). IVF or a more advanced procedure called ICSI(Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection) makes it possible to combine sperm and egg in a laboratory for healthy embryo formation.

Antenatal Registration with delivery

An obstretician's consultation before planning pregnancy can go a long way for a safe motherhood. Advice regarding nutrition and prior medical conditions which need to be corrected before pregnancy is very important. A regular antenatal check up with your doctor every two to three weeks during pregnancy and later more frequently in the final stages of pregnancy is crucial for both the mother and child's health. Regular blood investigations and ultrasound ensure a safe and healthy pregnancy. Knowledge about the modes of delivery is important for both the parents.
