Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Obstetric and Gynecologic care with Dr. Petrovski:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Petrovski, 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. Petrovski 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 first 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.
- 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. Petrovski can perform an initial workup and discuss next steps, or a referral to a fertility specialist, if needed.
- 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 life is not normal and should be evaluated. Dr. Petrovski can diagnose the cause, which could be treatable conditions like endometriosis or fibroids, and discuss solutions.
- What are my options for birth control?
- Birth control options include hormonal methods like pills, patches, and rings; long-acting reversible contraceptives such as IUDs and implants; barrier methods like condoms; and permanent options like tubal ligation. Dr. Petrovski will discuss your lifestyle and health to help you choose the best method for you.
- What is the HPV vaccine and who should get it?
- The HPV vaccine is a safe and effective way to protect 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.
- Do you perform gynecological surgery, like a hysterectomy?
- Yes, Dr. Petrovski 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.
- I'm approaching menopause. What kind of care do you provide for this stage?
- Dr. Petrovski provides comprehensive care for perimenopause and menopause, managing symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness. We discuss hormone replacement therapy (HRT) options, and provide screenings for bone density and heart health.
