At Marion OB/GYN Inc., Dr. Foulk and his team of OB/GYN experts focus on you as a whole patient, with an emphasis on maintaining the health of your reproductive system.
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends girls first visit a gynecologist between the ages of 13 and 15 years. However, gynecological exams for patients under the age of 21 usually do not include pelvic examinations. Teens with problems, such as menstrual disorders, vaginal discharge, or pelvic pain, may need an internal examination. But in the vast majority of cases, an initial visit focuses on patient education and provides an opportunity to establish a doctor-patient relationship, address any issues related to anatomical development, body image, self-confidence, weight management, immunizations (including the human papillomavirus vaccine), and contraception, and prevention of STIs.
You should continue seeing your gynecologist annually for well-woman exams and if you’re experiencing any issues with your period, or having problems with perimenopause, menopause, or beyond.
The gynecologic specialists at Marion OB/GYN Inc. are also obstetrics specialists. You can use your specialist’s knowledge and skill to increase your odds of becoming pregnant and help you navigate your pregnancy.
