A gynecologist is a doctor who specializes in the female reproductive system, including the uterus, ovaries, fallopian tubes, cervix, vagina, and breasts.

They provide care for:

• Menstrual problems
• Birth control and family planning
• Pregnancy-related reproductive care
• Infections and sexually transmitted infections
• Menopause symptoms
• Routine pelvic exams and cervical cancer screening

A doctor who specializes in both gynecology and pregnancy care is called an OB-GYN.
