- Menstrual Disorders: If your menstrual cycle is causing you problems whether it's too heavy, too light, too painful, or just unpredictable an OB/GYN can help you find relief and effective management strategies.
- Vaginal and Pelvic Prolapse: Weakened pelvic floor muscles can lead to vaginal and pelvic prolapse, causing organs to protrude into the vagina; an OB/GYN offers various treatment options.
- Miscarriages: Losing a pregnancy before it reaches 20 weeks is a miscarriage, and OB/GYNs provide medical attention, emotional support, and advice on future pregnancies.

- Uterine Prolapse: Uterine prolapse is when the uterus slips down into the vagina, sometimes causing discomfort or pressure.
- Maternal Anemia: During pregnancy, anemia means a lack of iron or other nutrients resulting in low red blood cell count, which your OB/GYN can diagnose and manage with dietary changes, supplements, or medication.
- Vaginitis or Vaginosis: OB/GYNs specialize in women's reproductive health, so they are the best healthcare providers to help you manage and treat vaginitis or vaginosis, which affect the vagina.
- Uterine Carcinoma: Cancer of the uterus, known as uterine carcinoma, is diagnosed and managed by OB/GYNs using various methods like surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy.
- Pregnancy: Pregnancy is when a woman's body carries and nurtures a developing baby, and an OB/GYN provides comprehensive care throughout this journey.
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. Joykutty:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Joykutty, is a physician trained in both obstetrics and gynecology. A gynecologist specializes in the health of the female reproductive system, including annual exams, infections, and contraception. An obstetrician specializes in pregnancy, labor, and childbirth. Dr. Joykutty provides care for women throughout their lives.
- At what age should I (or my daughter) have my first gynecologist visit?
- The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends a first gynecologist visit between the ages of 13 and 15. This initial visit is often a conversation about healthy habits and establishing a relationship with the provider. A pelvic exam is not typically necessary unless there is a specific concern or medical need.
- 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. Joykutty will perform a clinical breast exam and order further imaging, like a mammogram or ultrasound, if 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. The first prenatal visit is typically scheduled for around 8 weeks after your last menstrual period. This visit is important for confirming the pregnancy, determining a due date, and planning for a healthy pregnancy.
- My partner and I are having trouble getting pregnant. When should we see a doctor?
- Couples should generally seek a fertility evaluation if they have not conceived after one year of trying (if the woman is under 35) or after six months (if the woman is 35 or older). Dr. Joykutty can perform an initial workup and discuss next steps or referral to a fertility specialist.
- Do you perform gynecological surgery, like a hysterectomy?
- Dr. Joykutty performs a wide range of gynecological surgeries, including hysterectomies, myomectomies, and endometrial ablations. She is skilled in minimally invasive techniques like laparoscopy and robotic surgery, often resulting in quicker recovery times.
- How often do I need a Pap smear?
- Pap smear guidelines have changed. For most women, a Pap test is recommended every 3 years for ages 21-29. For women ages 30-65, a Pap test combined with an HPV test every 5 years is preferred. Dr. Joykutty will advise on a personalized schedule based on your health history.
- I have very painful and heavy periods. Is that normal?
- Experiencing painful and heavy periods is something we take very seriously. While some cramping is common, severe pain or excessive bleeding that interferes with your daily activities is not normal and should be evaluated. These symptoms can be signs of treatable conditions like endometriosis or fibroids. Dr. Joykutty can diagnose the cause and offer solutions.
