Gynaecology

Who is a gynecologist, and when should I visit one?

A gynecologist is a doctor who specializes in women’s reproductive health. You should visit a gynecologist for regular check-ups, menstrual issues, infections, pregnancy planning, or any concerns related to your reproductive system.

Gynecologists treat conditions like irregular periods, PCOS, menopause symptoms, infections, fibroids, endometriosis, pelvic pain, and more. They also provide screenings for cervical and breast cancer.

A Pap smear is a simple test that checks for abnormal cells in the cervix, which can help detect cervical cancer early. It is recommended for women aged 21 and above, usually every 3 years.

Occasional irregular periods can be normal, but if you have missed periods, heavy bleeding, severe cramps, or unusual spotting, it’s best to consult a gynecologist to rule out underlying health issues.

Menopause symptoms include hot flashes, mood swings, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and irregular periods. It can be managed with lifestyle changes, hormone therapy, and medications prescribed by a gynecologist.

A hysterectomy is a surgery to remove the uterus. It is recommended for conditions like severe fibroids, endometriosis, chronic pelvic pain, or certain cancers when other treatments do not work.

What are the available birth control options, and how do I choose the right one?

Birth control options include pills, IUDs, implants, injections, condoms, and permanent methods like tubal ligation. The right choice depends on your health, lifestyle, and future pregnancy plans—your gynecologist can help you decide.

Yes, we offer fertility treatments, including ovulation induction, IUI, IVF, and hormone therapy, to help women facing conception difficulties.

Yes, we offer minimally invasive procedures like laparoscopy and hysteroscopy for treating fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, and more. These procedures ensure quicker recovery and less pain compared to traditional surgery.

It is recommended to visit a gynecologist at least once a year for a routine check-up, even if you don’t have symptoms. Regular check-ups help in early detection of potential health issues. Click here to book an appointment

A pelvic exam helps check the health of your reproductive organs, including the vagina, cervix, uterus, and ovaries. It is usually done during routine check-ups or if you have symptoms like pain, abnormal discharge, or irregular bleeding.

Women should undergo Pap smears for cervical cancer, mammograms for breast cancer, and regular pelvic exams. Breast self-exams and screenings after age 40 (or earlier if at risk) are crucial for early detection.

Fertility & IVF

What does infertility mean?

Infertility is the inability to conceive after 12 months of regular, unprotected intercourse (or 6 months if the woman is over 35). It can affect both men and women.

In men, infertility may be caused by low sperm count, poor motility, hormonal imbalances, or genetic conditions. In women, it can result from irregular ovulation, blocked fallopian tubes, PCOS, endometriosis, or hormonal issues.

Yes, fertility declines with age. Women’s fertility drops after 30, with a sharp decline after 35. In men, sperm quality may reduce after 40-45 years.

Treatments depend on the cause and may include medications, lifestyle changes, hormonal therapy, intrauterine insemination (IUI), in vitro fertilization (IVF), or surgical interventions.

Egg and sperm freezing (cryopreservation) is used to preserve fertility for those undergoing cancer treatments, delaying parenthood, or facing medical conditions affecting fertility.

Fetal medicine is a specialized branch that focuses on diagnosing and managing fetal health conditions during pregnancy. It is recommended for high-risk pregnancies, genetic disorders, or fetal abnormalities.

What are the common prenatal tests for fetal health?

These include ultrasounds, nuchal translucency scans, non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT), amniocentesis, and chorionic villus sampling (CVS) to detect genetic or structural abnormalities.

Doctors assess fetal health through ultrasounds, Doppler scans, fetal echocardiography, and biophysical profiles to check growth, heart function, and movement.

Fetal medicine can detect congenital heart defects, chromosomal abnormalities (like Down syndrome), neural tube defects, and growth restrictions. Early detection allows better planning and treatment options.

A nuchal translucency (NT) scan is done between 11-14 weeks of pregnancy to measure fluid behind the baby’s neck. It helps assess the risk of chromosomal conditions like Down syndrome.

Procedures like amniocentesis and CVS carry a small risk of infection or miscarriage (less than 1%). However, they provide accurate genetic information and are only recommended when necessary.

Pediatrics

What services do pediatricians provide?

Pediatricians specialize in newborn care, vaccinations, growth monitoring, developmental assessments, nutrition guidance, and treatment of childhood illnesses. They also manage chronic conditions like asthma and allergies.

Your child should have their first check-up within 48-72 hours after birth and then regular visits as recommended by the pediatrician.

Newborns should have frequent visits in the first year, followed by annual check-ups to track growth, development, and vaccinations.

Vaccines protect against diseases like polio, measles, hepatitis, and pneumonia. The pediatrician will follow the Indian Academy of Pediatrics (IAP) immunization schedule.

Stay calm, explain in simple terms, use distractions like toys, and comfort them with hugs and praise after the shot.

Fevers, colds, coughs, diarrhea, and skin rashes are common. Seek immediate care if your child has high fever, difficulty breathing, dehydration, or persistent vomiting.

What are the signs of a pediatric emergency?

Seek emergency care if your child has trouble breathing, severe allergic reactions, uncontrolled bleeding, seizures, or persistent drowsiness.

Provide a balanced diet rich in proteins, vitamins, and minerals, encourage hydration, and monitor height and weight regularly with a pediatrician.

Talk to your child often, read books together, sing rhymes, and encourage conversations. If speech delays persist beyond 18-24 months, consult a pediatrician.

Most children start walking between 12-15 months. If your child isn’t walking by 18 months, consult a pediatrician to check for developmental delays.

Pediatricians track milestones in motor skills, speech, social interaction, and cognitive abilities through regular check-ups and screenings.

Neonatology

What is Neonatology, and why is it important for newborns?

Neonatology is a branch of pediatrics that focuses on the medical care of newborn babies, especially those who are premature, have low birth weight, or need special medical attention after birth. Neonatologists ensure that newborns receive the best care for their growth and development.

Our Neonatology department provides:

  • Specialized care for premature and critically ill newborns
  • 24/7 monitoring in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)
  • Treatment for respiratory distress, infections, and congenital conditions
  • Support for newborn feeding, including breastfeeding guidance
  • Follow-up care for high-risk infants

A Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) is a specialized hospital unit for newborns who need extra medical care. Babies who may need NICU care include those born prematurely, those with breathing difficulties, infections, low birth weight, or congenital conditions.

  • Level I NICU: Basic newborn care for healthy babies and those needing minimal medical support.
  • Level II NICU: Specialized care for babies born slightly premature or with mild health concerns.
  • Level III NICU: Advanced care for critically ill or very premature infants, with ventilators, advanced monitoring, and specialized treatments.

Common conditions treated in the NICU include:

  • Premature birth complications
  • Respiratory distress syndrome (breathing difficulties)
  • Jaundice (yellowing of the skin)
  • Infections and sepsis
  • Low birth weight and feeding issues

Parents play a vital role in their baby’s recovery. At Nectar Mother and Child Care Hospital, we encourage parents to:

  • Visit the baby regularly
  • Participate in skin-to-skin contact

Our NICU follows strict infection control measures, advanced monitoring, and round-the-clock care. We maintain a controlled environment to protect fragile newborns from infections and ensure their best recovery.

Yes, we support breastfeeding for NICU babies. If a baby is unable to nurse directly, we guide mothers on expressing milk and using alternative feeding methods like tube feeding or bottle feeding with expressed breast milk.

Before discharge, our neonatology team ensures that your baby can breathe, feed, and maintain body temperature without medical support. Parents receive guidance on newborn care, feeding, and follow-up visits to ensure a smooth transition home.

Premature and NICU-admitted babies may require regular check-ups to monitor growth, development, and any potential health concerns. Our pediatric team provides ongoing support to ensure your baby’s long-term well-being.

Newborn jaundice occurs when there is excess bilirubin in the baby’s blood, causing yellowing of the skin. In most cases, it resolves on its own, but severe cases may require phototherapy (light treatment) or other medical interventions.

Yes, peeling skin is common in newborns, especially in the first few days after birth. It is harmless and occurs as the baby sheds the outer layer of skin. Keeping the skin moisturized with a doctor-recommended lotion can help.

Vaccination Services

Why are vaccinations important for my child?

Vaccinations help protect children from serious diseases by boosting their immune system. They prevent illnesses such as measles, polio, whooping cough, and hepatitis, reducing the risk of complications and outbreaks.

The immunization schedule follows national and global health guidelines. Some key vaccines include:

  • At Birth: BCG, Hepatitis B, Oral Polio Vaccine (OPV)
  • 6 Weeks: DTP, Hib, IPV, Rotavirus, PCV
  • 10 & 14 Weeks: Additional doses of DTP, Hib, IPV, Rotavirus, and PCV

If your child misses a vaccine dose, schedule an appointment as soon as possible. Many vaccines can still be given at a later date without restarting the entire series. Our pediatricians will guide you on the best course of action.

Yes, vaccines are safe and necessary for newborns and premature babies. They help protect against infections that could be more severe in premature infants. Some vaccine schedules may be adjusted based on the baby’s health condition, which our doctors will discuss with you.

Can my child get vaccinated if they have a cold or fever?

If your child has a mild cold, they can usually still receive vaccines. However, if they have a high fever or severe illness, it’s best to consult our doctors before proceeding with the vaccination.

  • Stay calm and reassuring
  • Bring their favorite toy or comfort item
  • Distract them with a gentle conversation or a song
  • After the shot, comfort your child and praise their bravery

Lactation Consultation

What is lactation consultation, and how can it help me?

A lactation consultation is a session with a certified lactation consultant who helps mothers with breastfeeding challenges, such as latch issues, low milk supply, sore nipples, or infant weight gain concerns. The goal is to provide personalized support for a smooth and comfortable breastfeeding journey.

You should see a lactation consultant if you experience:

  • Difficulty latching
  • Painful breastfeeding or sore nipples
  • Concerns about milk supply (low or oversupply)
  • A baby who is not gaining enough weight
  • Engorgement or blocked ducts
  • Breastfeeding after a C-section or with medical conditions

Consulting early can help prevent long-term issues.

Breastfeeding should ideally begin within the first hour after birth. This helps establish bonding, encourages milk production, and provides the baby with colostrum, which is rich in nutrients and antibodies.

Newborns should be breastfed 8-12 times a day, approximately every 2-3 hours, including nighttime. As babies grow, the frequency may reduce, but each baby has unique needs.

If your baby has trouble latching, try:

  • Ensuring a comfortable breastfeeding position
  • Offering skin-to-skin contact before feeding
  • Hand-expressing a few drops of milk to encourage suckling
  • Consulting a lactation specialist for personalized guidance

To increase milk supply:

  • Breastfeed frequently and on demand
