Here are answers to some common questions about receiving Obstetric and Gynecologic care with Dr. Thomas:
- What is the difference between an Obstetrician and a Gynecologist?
- An OB/GYN, like Dr. Thomas, is a physician trained in both obstetrics and gynecology. A gynecologist specializes in the overall health of the female reproductive system, including annual exams, infections, and contraception. An obstetrician specializes in pregnancy, labor, and childbirth. Dr. Thomas 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 visit between the ages of 13 and 15. This initial visit is often a conversation to build a relationship and discuss healthy habits, and a pelvic exam is not typically needed unless there's a specific concern.
- 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 ultrasounds provide detailed, photo-like images for keepsake purposes, but are not used for medical diagnoses. They are an optional service.
- 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 around 8 weeks after your last menstrual period. This visit is important for confirming the pregnancy, determining your due date, and planning for a healthy pregnancy.
- I'm approaching menopause. What kind of care do you provide for this stage?
- Dr. Thomas provides comprehensive care for perimenopause and menopause, managing symptoms like hot flashes and vaginal dryness. He discusses the risks and benefits of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and provides screenings for bone density and heart health.
- What are my options for birth control?
- Birth control options include 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. Dr. Thomas will discuss your lifestyle and health to help you choose the best method for you.
- 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. Thomas can perform an initial workup and discuss next steps or referral to a fertility specialist.
- 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 vaccination significantly lowers the risk of these HPV-related diseases.
