Services
Heavy Periods
Report
Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (HMB) is a common problem, affecting almost 1 in 3 women. It is one of the commonest reasons why a woman would visit their GP or gynaecologist. While it is almost never life threatening, it can cause a lot of problem to a woman - physically, emotionally, and socially. Every woman bleeds different amount during their period and have different perception of how much they bleed.
Uterine Polyps
Report
Uterine polyps (also called endometrial polyps) are growth from the internal (endometrial) lining of the uterus. Most are benign (non-cancerous). Uterine polyps can cause abnormal menstrual bleeding, such irregular bleeding in between periods or heavy menstrual bleeding. They can also cause bleeding in women who have gone through menopause.
Abnormal Pap Smears
Report
Cervical Screening Test is a simple procedure to check the health of your cervix and screen for pre-cancerous and cancerous changes to your cervix. Having regular Cervical Screening Test every 5 years is the most effective way to protect against cervical cancer. It is performed in exactly the same way as pap smear, but the sample taken is tested differently.
Laparoscopy
Report
Laparoscopy - also known as minimally invasive surgery or 'keyhole' surgery - is a procedure where slender tube (laparoscope) is inserted into the patient's abdomen, usually through a small cut (5-10mm) in the belly button. It is fitted with a light source and video camera to allow the surgeon to look at the abdominal and pelvic organs (such as uterus, fallopian tubes and ovaries) through a video monitor.
Hysterectomy removal of uterus
Report
There is no evidence of any advantage in leaving the cervix behind when a skilled laparoscopic surgeon is performing the hysterectomy. There are some disadvantages of subtotal hysterectomy with potential of ongoing bleeding, continued need for cervical cancer screening tests, and in some cases the need for an additional major surgical procedure to remove the cervix.
