Gynecologist Performing Colposcopy in Barranquilla

A colposcopy is a gynecological procedure that allows the doctor to closely examine the cervix, vagina, and vulva using a specialized instrument called a colposcope. It is a safe, quick, and generally painless examination that helps detect abnormal changes before they become more serious.

What is a colposcopy?

A colposcopy is recommended when a gynecologist needs a more detailed evaluation of the cervix, especially after an abnormal Pap smear or a positive HPV test. During the procedure, the specialist can identify abnormal tissue and, if necessary, perform a biopsy for an accurate diagnosis.

What can a colposcopy detect?

• Changes caused by Human Papillomavirus (HPV).
• Precancerous cervical lesions.
• Early-stage cervical cancer.
• Cervical polyps.
• Inflammation or infections of the cervix.
• Abnormalities of the vagina or vulva.

When should I have a colposcopy?

• If your Pap smear results are abnormal.
• If you have tested positive for HPV.
• If you experience bleeding after sexual intercourse.
• If your gynecologist notices changes in your cervix during a pelvic exam.
• For follow-up of previously diagnosed cervical lesions.

Infertility

What is infertility?

Infertility is the difficulty of achieving pregnancy after a period of regular sexual intercourse without contraception. It may be related to female factors, male factors, or a combination of both.

When is infertility diagnosed?

Generally, an evaluation is recommended when pregnancy has not occurred after 12 months of trying if the woman is under 35, or after 6 months if she is 35 or older. Evaluation may be recommended earlier when there are medical conditions or other factors that may affect fertility.

How can infertility be treated?

Treatment depends on the underlying cause and may include medications to stimulate ovulation, surgery, artificial insemination, in vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), egg donation, or fertility preservation.

Which specialist treats infertility?

Infertility can be evaluated by a reproductive medicine specialist, a gynecologist specializing in fertility, or a urologist specializing in male fertility. Evaluating both partners can help identify the cause and determine the appropriate treatment.
