Women's Health
Antenatal and Post-natal Care:
-
We have 2 doctors that can provide a shared antenatal service in conjunction with your hospital care.
-
Please bring your South Australian Pregnancy Record (Orange Book) with you to these appointments.
-
Following your birth, we can continue to provide care for both you and your newborn.
Pap-smears:
-
Regular pap-smears help detect pre-cancerous changes of your cervix.
-
This allows for early treatment to prevent cervical cancer.
-
Current guidelines recommend 2 yearly pap-smears in women aged between 18-70.
Family Planning & Contraception:
-
The doctors can have an in-depth discussion about the different types of contraception.
-
They can assist you to determine the most suitable contraception for you.
Implanon & IUD Insertion & Removal:
-
We can remove and replace your intrauterine devices or Implanon.
-
Leaving them in past their recommended life span can reduce their effectiveness.
