As your primary healthcare provider, Dr. Nazarian offers expert diagnosis and management for a wide range of common health conditions. Common areas of focus include:
- High Risk Pregnancy: A high-risk pregnancy means there are extra health concerns for the mother or baby during pregnancy, and an OB/GYN provides specialized care to manage potential complications.
- Maternal Anemia: Maternal anemia is a deficiency of red blood cells during pregnancy, potentially causing fatigue and complications. OB/GYNs regularly check for this and provide treatment plans, often involving iron supplements and dietary changes.
- Pregestational Diabetes Mellitus: If you have diabetes before getting pregnant, your OB/GYN will work with you to monitor your blood sugar and plan for a healthy pregnancy.
- Asymptomatic Post-Menopausal Status: Asymptomatic post-menopause describes a woman's transition after menopause without any troubling physical symptoms. OB/GYNs still recommend regular check-ups to maintain health.
- Genital Warts: Small, fleshy growths on or around the genitals are a sign of genital warts, a treatable STI that your OB/GYN can effectively manage.
- Pelvic Pain: Don't suffer in silence with pelvic pain. Your OB/GYN can identify the causewhether it's a simple infection or a more chronic conditionand offer effective relief options.
- Coagulation Defects in Pregnancy and Postpartum: Some women have conditions that affect their blood's ability to clot; OB/GYNs provide specialized care to prevent or address problems during and after pregnancy.
- Infertility: If you're having trouble getting pregnant, infertility is diagnosed when conception hasn't occurred after a year of regular unprotected sex, and your OB/GYN can help investigate the cause and explore solutions.
- Breech Position: Your OB/GYN will assess if your baby is in a breech position, where it's positioned feet or buttocks-first, and recommend the best delivery plan.
- Gestational Diabetes: During pregnancy, some women develop gestational diabetes, a temporary condition where their bodies don't use insulin effectively; your OB/GYN can provide care and guidance to manage this.
- Hyperemesis Gravidarum: If you experience persistent, intense vomiting during pregnancy, you may have hyperemesis gravidarum; your OB/GYN can help alleviate the symptoms and prevent dehydration and nutritional deficiencies.
- Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs): If you're concerned about an STD, your OB/GYN can perform tests to determine if you have an infection and provide effective treatment options to manage it.
This list represents some of the common conditions treated. An accurate diagnosis and a personalized care plan can only be developed through a direct consultation with a qualified medical professional.

Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Obstetric and Gynecologic care with Dr. Nazarian:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Nazarian, is a specialist trained in both obstetrics and gynecology. A gynecologist focuses on the overall health of the female reproductive system, including annual exams, infections, and contraception. An obstetrician specializes in pregnancy, labor, and childbirth. Dr. Nazarian provides care for women throughout their lives, encompassing both specialties.
- At what age should I (or my daughter) have my first gynecologist visit?
- The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends a first visit between the ages of 13 and 15. This initial visit is often a conversation to establish a relationship and discuss healthy habits. A pelvic exam is not typically needed unless there is a specific concern.
- How often do I need a Pap smear?
- Pap smear guidelines have changed. For most women ages 21-29, a Pap test is recommended every 3 years. Women ages 30-65 may benefit from a Pap test combined with an HPV test every 5 years. Dr. Nazarian will advise on a personalized schedule based on your individual health history.
- I found a lump in my breast. Should I call my OB/GYN?
- Yes. Most breast lumps are benign, but any new lump or change warrants immediate evaluation. Dr. Nazarian will perform a clinical breast exam and may order imaging, such as a mammogram or ultrasound, as needed.
- I'm pregnant. When should I schedule my first prenatal appointment?
- Call our office as soon as you have a positive home pregnancy test. Your first prenatal appointment is typically scheduled for around 8 weeks after your last menstrual period. This first visit is important for confirming the pregnancy, determining a due date, and planning for a healthy pregnancy.
- Do you perform gynecological surgery, like a hysterectomy?
- Yes, Dr. Nazarian performs a wide range of gynecological surgeries, including hysterectomies, myomectomies, and endometrial ablations. She is skilled in minimally invasive techniques, such as laparoscopy and robotic surgery, which may result in a faster recovery time.
- What are my options for birth control?
- Dr. Nazarian offers various birth control options, including hormonal methods like pills, patches, and rings; long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) such as IUDs and implants; barrier methods like condoms; and permanent options like tubal ligation. We will discuss your lifestyle and health to help you choose the best method for you.
- What is the difference between 3D/4D ultrasound and the regular medical ultrasound?
- Standard 2D ultrasound is the primary tool used to assess the baby's growth, anatomy, and well-being. 3D/4D ultrasound provides detailed, photo-like images for keepsake purposes, but isn't used for medical diagnosis. It's an optional service.
