Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Obstetric and Gynecologic care with Dr. Mumfrey II:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Mumfrey II, is a physician 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. Most OB/GYNs provide 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 first visit is often just a conversation to establish a relationship and discuss healthy habits. A pelvic exam is not typically needed unless there is a specific concern or problem.
- 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 ages 30-65, a Pap test combined with an HPV test every 5 years is preferred. Dr. Mumfrey II will advise on a personalized schedule based on your health history.
- I'm approaching menopause. What kind of care do you provide for this stage?
- Dr. Mumfrey II provides comprehensive care for perimenopause and menopause, managing symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness, discussing HRT options, and performing screenings for bone density and heart health.
- I have very painful and heavy periods. Is that normal?
- Experiencing painful and heavy periods is a concern, and it's important to have it evaluated. While some cramping is common, severe pain or excessive bleeding that interferes with your daily life is not normal. Dr. Mumfrey II can diagnose the cause, such as endometriosis or fibroids, and discuss treatment options.
- 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. Mumfrey II will perform a clinical breast exam and order further imaging, like a mammogram or ultrasound, if necessary.
- What is the HPV vaccine and who should get it?
- The HPV vaccine is a safe and effective vaccine that protects against the human papillomavirus (HPV), which causes most cases of cervical cancer and genital warts. It's recommended for all preteens, both boys and girls, at age 11 or 12, and can be given to young adults as well. This vaccine is important for preventing these potentially serious health issues.
- 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 is not used for medical diagnosis.
