Best Gynecologists in Memphis, TN

What is gynecology?

Gynecology is the specialized branch of medicine that focuses on a woman’s sexual, reproductive, and pelvic organ health. The OB/GYNs at Poplar Avenue Clinic are experienced in preventing, evaluating, treating, and managing health issues that affect women.

Anyone with female organs should see a gynecologist. These organs include the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, breasts, and cervix.

Some reasons you might seek gynecological care include:

• You’re due for an annual pelvic exam
• You have concerns about your period
• You think you might have a sexually transmitted disease
• You’re experiencing an unusual vaginal discharge
• You have pain during sexual intercourse
• You have questions about getting pregnant or menopause

There are many other issues involving your sexuality, pelvic organ health, and reproductive status that a gynecologist can help with. If you have concerns that involve your female organs or need preventive care, contact Poplar Avenue Clinic for an appointment.
