Frequently asked
questions.

In the first consultation, your complaints, history and any previous tests are evaluated together. If needed, imaging or laboratory tests are planned. The process and options are discussed with the patient in clear language.

Yes. Routine gynecological examination and pregnancy monitoring should be carried out at certain intervals even when there are no complaints. Findings identified early make treatment easier.

No referral is needed for a clinic visit; you can book directly. You can reach our clinic through the appointment page. Pricing becomes clear according to the procedure planned after the examination; a fixed price is not given over the phone.

In an uncomplicated pregnancy, check-ups are generally recommended monthly until week 28, every 2–3 weeks between weeks 28 and 36, and weekly after week 36 — around 8–12 visits in an average pregnancy. Your physician adjusts this frequency according to your individual situation.

The first check-up is recommended at weeks 6–8 from the last menstrual period. During this visit, the pregnancy is confirmed, the estimated due date is calculated, and a follow-up plan is created.

Pregnancy over the age of 35, twin or multiple pregnancy, chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, and thyroid disease, and a history of loss or preterm birth in a previous pregnancy may be evaluated within the scope of high-risk pregnancy. Your physician makes the definitive classification.

Although it varies depending on the risk, visits may be more frequent than in a routine pregnancy. Your physician creates an individual follow-up plan according to the week of pregnancy and your condition.

In vaginal birth, the recovery process is generally shorter and the hospital stay is less. The mother does not face anesthesia risk. The baby gains some physiological benefits while passing through the vaginal canal. However, the conditions of every birth are different; your physician evaluates the most suitable option for you.

In first births, active labor may take 8–14 hours; in subsequent births, this period is generally shorter. Individual differences are normal.

Situations such as the baby being in a breech or transverse position, placenta previa, fetal distress (signs of stress in the baby), active genital herpes, and complications arising in previous cesareans may make a cesarean necessary. The final decision rests with your physician.

The operation itself is generally completed in 30–60 minutes. The preparation and anesthesia process is added to this.

It is a closed surgical method performed through small incisions, using a camera and special surgical instruments.

Depending on the scope of the procedure, it generally ranges from 30 minutes to a few hours.

If sexual activity has begun, the first gynecological examination is recommended at age 21 or within the first year of being sexually active. For women who are not sexually active, a first visit between the ages of 18 and 21 is considered appropriate. Your physician evaluates your individual situation.

A smear test is a screening test that helps detect cervical cancer or precursor lesions by examining, in the laboratory, a cell sample taken from the cervix. It is generally recommended for women between the ages of 21 and 65 every 3 years, or every 5 years together with an HPV test.

It may be considered in situations such as tubal blockage, severe male factor infertility, advanced-age infertility, endometriosis, unexplained infertility, and cases where simpler treatments such as IUI have been unsuccessful.

It typically consists of the following stages: stimulation (medication therapy for ovarian stimulation), egg retrieval (oocyte pick-up), fertilization and embryo development, embryo transfer, and the waiting period.

Monitoring, which begins on day 2-3 of the menstrual cycle, lasts on average 8-12 days until ovulation occurs. During this process, a check-up is usually performed every 2-4 days.

Intercourse is generally recommended within 24-48 hours after the hCG injection. If IUI (insemination) is planned, the procedure is usually scheduled for 36-40 hours afterward.

Although the average age of menopause varies between 45 and 55, individual differences exist. Cessation of menstruation before the age of 40 is evaluated as 'early menopause' or 'premature ovarian insufficiency' and requires specialist follow-up.

Hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, mood changes, vaginal dryness, changes in sexual interest, joint pain, and difficulty concentrating are commonly seen symptoms. Every woman's experience is different.
