Adolescent Gynaecological Problems
Adolescence is a transformative time, bringing various physical and emotional changes that can be overwhelming for young girls. At Yupiter Hospital, we understand the unique gynaecological health concerns faced during this critical phase and are committed to providing comprehensive care tailored to their needs. Our expert team addresses a wide range of adolescent gynaecological issues with compassion and expertise.
General Gynaecological Health
General gynaecology focuses on the fundamental health concerns of young girls as they navigate the changes of puberty. Our approach includes educating them about their bodily transformations, addressing any delays in development, and providing coping strategies for the emotional aspects of these changes.
Menstrual Disorders
Many young women experience menstrual disorders during the early stages of menstruation. Common issues include irregular periods, dysmenorrhea (painful periods), heavy menstrual bleeding, and spotting between cycles. It’s vital for young girls to understand what constitutes normal menstrual patterns and to recognize any concerning changes.
Vaginal Disorders
Vaginal disorders can manifest as yeast infections, bacterial infections, vaginismus, obstruction, lumps, and vaginitis. These conditions may lead to embarrassment and confusion for young women. Seeking timely medical intervention is essential to prevent complications.
Vulval Injury
Vulval injuries, which can occur due to accidents or everyday activities, such as bike riding, can lead to pain, swelling, and redness. The treatment approach depends on the nature and severity of the injury, ensuring proper care for recovery
Sexual Development Disorders
Some sexual development disorders may be congenital and become more noticeable during adolescence. Examples include Turner Syndrome, Klinefelter Syndrome, and 45, X/46, XY gonadal dysgenesis. These conditions stem from chromosomal or genetic variations and require careful assessment and management.
Abnormal Skin Changes
Hormonal fluctuations during puberty can lead to skin changes, including acne, excessive sweating, skin lesions, and dermatitis. Our gynaecology experts collaborate with dermatologists to provide holistic care for these concerns
Abnormal Vaginal Discharge
While vaginal discharge is normal during adolescence, abnormal discharge can signal underlying issues. Normal discharge is typically white, mucus-like, or clear, and any deviations should prompt a medical evaluation.
Cervical Dysplasia
Cervical dysplasia refers to abnormal cell growth on the cervical wall, which may resemble cancerous cells. If untreated, it can lead to cancer. Early detection and treatment are crucial for managing this condition effectively.
Counselling and Support
The gynaecological changes that occur during puberty can significantly impact mental health. Our dedicated team offers personalized advice and one-on-one counselling to help young girls navigate these changes and promote positive health outcomes.
