What is Adolescent Gynecology?

Adolescent gynecology is a specialized branch of medicine that focuses on the gynecological health of teenage girls, addressing the physical, hormonal, and emotional changes that occur from puberty through early adulthood.

Why is Adolescent Gynecology important?

Though questions about menstruation, mood swings, physical development, and unusual symptoms are common, they are not always discussed openly due to societal taboos or embarrassment. Adolescent gynecology plays a vital role in helping young girls understand their bodies, addressing health concerns early, and creating a strong foundation for lifelong reproductive wellness. Gynaecologists are professionals who can guide young girls and their families with empathy, sensitivity, and accurate medical advice. Creating awareness about adolescent health not only helps prevent medical issues but also promotes confidence, body positivity, and responsible decision-making among young girls.

What problems does this branch address?
Common concerns addressed include irregular periods, painful menstruation, PCOS, hormonal imbalance, puberty-related issues, delayed or early puberty, menstrual hygiene, vaginal infections, and contraception counselling. Our specialists provide confidential, sensitive, and age-appropriate care to help adolescents manage their health comfortably. We also work closely with parents to ensure the right support during this important stage of development.
