Gynaecology at NICE Hospital

We know that great care goes beyond routine exams — it also involves listening to a woman's specific concerns and alleviating any fears. That's why we believe in fully treating the physical and emotional needs of every woman we serve.

Services We Offer

General Gynaecological and Obstetrics Care. Women with wide ranging general gynaecological problems are seen in our clinics, these include:

  • Heavy and irregular menstrual bleeding
  • Painful periods
  • Pelvic pain
  • Menopausal problems
  • Fibroids
  • Endometriosis
  • Recurrent Miscarriage

High Risk Obstetrics

We attend to high risk pregnancies related to —

  • GDM (Gestational Diabetes Mellitus)
  • PIH (Pregnancy Induced Hypertension)
  • Eclampsia
  • Rh –ve pregnancies, among others

Our pregnancy services are designed to assist women before, during and after childbirth to ensure the best outcomes for mothers and their babies. The process begins even before pregnancy with maternal-foetal medicine experts to advise women with concerns or questions.

Maternal-foetal medicine physicians provide care before and during pregnancy to women at increased risk for complications due to medical conditions or genetic factors. Also known as perinatologists, these specialists work closely with the woman's obstetrician/gynaecologist, infertility experts and others to ensure the health of both mother and baby. We try and ensure a painless journey towards a memorable and happy delivery for the mother through our delivery services.

Gynae Oncology

Screening of malignancy and basic investigation is carried out at the hospital. Women with gynaecological and urological conditions can tap the expertise of skilled surgeons who specialize in advanced pelvic surgery, gynaecological oncology and urogynaecology. Our surgeons are highly experienced in minimally invasive surgical techniques like hysteroscopy, laparoscopy, colposcopy and endometrial ablation.

Fertility Services

Women experiencing difficulty in conceiving will be evaluated, counselled and treated. Counselling is done for both the woman and her partner. Since in majority of cases the diagnosis can be made by diagnostic Laparoscopy/Hysteroscopy, these services are offered as doctors are trained in minimally invasive surgeries. Intra uterine insemination is also done. Any uterine anomalies or pathology like polycystic ovarian disease and endometriosis can be treated at the same time.

Family Planning Services

Women are counselled regarding family planning methods. Temporary methods like oral pills, IUCD insertion (Copper-T), injectables etc. are individualized as per the need of the patients. Permanent methods like Laparoscopic sterilization are also available with the hospital.

Well Woman Checkup

We encourage women to undergo annual health check-ups. In addition to clinical examinations we encourage them to undergo certain investigations like Pap smear, blood investigations, ultrasound abdomen etc.

Urogynaecology and Pelvic Reconstruction

In cases of descent of uterus (prolapse), bladder (cystocele), rectocele (rectum), corrective procedures can be done either vaginally or through endoscopy. In mild cases medical management will suffice.

DUB (Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding)

Diagnostic services like hysteroscopy and guided biopsy are available. Treatment can be medical — either oral tablets or by insertion of Mirena (hormone incorporated intra uterine device). For excess bleeding, endometrial resection can be done via hysteroscopy. The uterus can be retained and bleeding will reduce.

Minimally Invasive Surgeries

We are adept at handling minimally invasive surgeries through laparoscopy/hysteroscopy. These surgeries involve 3–5 small incisions in the abdominal wall and introducing instruments attached to a monitor so that the entire abdominal organs are visualized with magnification. It can be done for various pathological conditions like:

  • Ectopic pregnancies (Tubal Pregnancy)
  • Ovarian Cysts
  • Myomectomy (Removal of fibroid)
  • Hysterectomies
  • Endometriosis
  • Abnormal masses
  • In infertility patients for diagnosis

The many advantages include small scars (5–10mm), faster healing, less post-operative pain and faster return to normal activities.

Menopausal Care

Cessation of periods and the time thereafter is called menopause. Since there is a reduction in hormones during this period it can be associated with symptoms like hot flashes, mood disturbances including depression, anxiety, sleep disturbances and vaginal dryness. These symptoms need treatment in the form of counselling and medications which can be hormonal or non-hormonal depending on severity. Bone mineral density can be done to screen for osteoporosis and appropriate management initiated.

Cancer Screening

All women are counselled regarding Pap smear which has to be done as per WHO protocol to screen cervical cancer (mouth of the womb). If there is any abnormality found in Pap smear, colposcopy is done where cervix is visualised under magnification and a guided biopsy can be done to know the abnormality. Appropriate treatment can then be advised. HPV Vaccine to prevent cervical cancer is also available with the hospital. Clinical breast examinations are done and mammogram is advised where necessary.
