Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Obstetrics and Gynecology care with Dr. Ashutosh Virmani:

What can I expect during my first visit with Dr. Ashutosh Virmani?

Your first visit with Dr. Virmani is a collaborative partnership-building session. We'll review your detailed health history, discuss your health goals and concerns, and create a personalized plan for future screenings. This is a safe and confidential space to ask any questions you may have.

How often do I need a Pap smear and HPV test?

Guidelines for Pap smears and HPV tests vary based on age and risk factors, but the overall goal is early detection of cervical changes that could lead to cancer. Dr. Virmani follows the latest evidence-based screening recommendations and will create a personalized schedule for you.

What kind of topics should I bring up during my annual wellness exam?

During your annual wellness exam, feel free to discuss any concerns, including your menstrual cycle, sexual health, birth control, future pregnancy plans, and changes to your breasts or pelvic area. We encourage open communication and proactive discussion about your health. No question is off-limits. We are here to support you.

What are the common symptoms of menopause I should be aware of?

Common menopause symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, vaginal dryness, and mood changes. These are normal, but treatable, and Dr. Virmani can help you navigate this transition and maintain your quality of life.

I'm concerned about STIs. What screenings are available?

How do I perform a breast self-exam, and how often should I do it?

Breast self-awareness, not finding specific abnormalities, is the goal. Monthly self-exams can help you recognize any changes, like new lumps or skin changes. This is important, but it's not a substitute for regular clinical exams and mammograms with Dr. Virmani.

Experiencing urine leakage with coughing or exercise is very common, especially after childbirth. It's called stress incontinence, and it's not something you have to live with. Dr. Virmani can offer many effective solutions, from pelvic floor therapy to simple procedures.

Recommendations for mammograms generally start at age 40, but can vary based on family history and personal risk factors. Dr. Virmani will assess your individual risk to recommend the most appropriate screening schedule to ensure early detection of breast cancer.
