What is a Gynaecology Consultation?
A gynaecology consultation is a focused clinical appointment with a specialist in women's reproductive and hormonal health. It covers a wide range of concerns — from menstrual irregularities and pelvic pain to PCOS, fibroids, infections, fertility questions, contraception, and menopausal symptoms.
During a consultation, Dr Raman Shobana takes a detailed history of your symptoms, menstrual pattern, obstetric history, and any relevant family or medical background. A pelvic examination may be recommended if clinically appropriate, and investigations such as a pelvic ultrasound, hormone blood tests, or swab cultures are arranged based on your specific presentation. A gynaecology consultation is not an emergency-only appointment — it is an essential part of proactive women's healthcare at any age. Early consultation often leads to earlier diagnosis, simpler treatment, and better long-term outcomes.

What to Expect at Your Gynaecology Consultation
History and discussion
Dr Shobana takes a thorough history of your current concerns, menstrual cycle, past medical history, and any previous gynaecological investigations or treatments. She will ask about your symptoms in detail.
Clinical examination
A pelvic examination is performed when clinically appropriate, with your full consent and a clear explanation of each step beforehand. Privacy and your comfort are always prioritised.
Investigations
Based on your presentation, investigations may include a pelvic ultrasound (done in-clinic), blood tests (hormone profile, thyroid, sugar), or swab cultures for infection screening.
Diagnosis and explanation
Dr Shobana explains what she has found, what she suspects, and what the investigations are designed to confirm — in plain language, without medical shorthand that leaves you more confused than before.
Treatment planning
A clear management plan is agreed — whether that involves medication, lifestyle changes, a follow-up scan, or a referral for specialist investigation.
Follow-up
Ongoing appointments are scheduled as needed to review treatment response, repeat investigations, and adjust the management plan — with continuity at every step.
Frequently Asked Questions — Gynaecology Consultation
When should a woman first see a gynaecologist?
Most guidelines recommend a first gynaecology visit around age 18 to 21, or when a young woman becomes sexually active — whichever comes first. However, any woman of any age with menstrual irregularities, pelvic pain, unusual discharge, fertility concerns, or questions about contraception should see a gynaecologist promptly. There is no minimum age for gynaecological care.
What happens during a gynaecology consultation at Mithr?
Dr Shobana begins with a detailed history — your symptoms, menstrual pattern, previous pregnancies and any treatments, family history, and current medications. She discusses whether a physical examination is clinically appropriate and, if so, performs a pelvic or speculum examination with your full consent. Investigations are arranged based on findings, and a clear plan is agreed before you leave.
How often should women have a routine gynaecology check-up?
Annual check-ups are generally recommended for sexually active women and all women over 25. Cervical cancer screening (Pap smear or HPV test) is recommended every 3 to 5 years depending on age and previous results. Women with conditions such as PCOS, fibroids, endometriosis, or a history of pelvic infection benefit from more frequent monitoring. Postmenopausal women should also attend regular check-ups for bone health and endometrial monitoring.
What conditions does a gynaecologist treat?
Gynaecologists treat PCOS, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, irregular or heavy periods, painful periods, pelvic inflammatory disease and other infections, cervical cell changes (CIN), menopause symptoms, fertility problems, vulval conditions, urinary incontinence, and pelvic floor concerns. They also provide contraception counselling, preconception advice, and preventive care including cervical screening.
Do I need a referral to see Dr Shobana at Mithr Women's Health?
No referral is required. You can book directly through Calendly or by calling our clinic at +91 70222 72001. Mithr Women's Health operates as a primary women's specialist clinic — you can self-refer for any gynaecological concern, whether it is a routine check-up, an active symptom, or a general health question. No GP letter or hospital referral is needed.
What should I bring to a gynaecology appointment?
Bring any previous ultrasound reports or scan printouts, blood test results, prescription history or medication list, records of your menstrual cycle pattern (dates, flow, and duration of last few periods), and a list of any specific questions or symptoms you want to discuss. If you have had a Pap smear or previous gynaecological investigations, bring those reports too. Previous reports help avoid duplication and allow Dr Shobana to review your baseline from the start.
