When should you consult a gynaecologist?

Gynaecological symptoms such as abdominal pain, menstrual irregularities, pregnancy monitoring, contraception or the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases are all reasons why you should consult a gynaecologist in Zurich. A gynaecologist is a women's health specialist who treats a variety of gynaecological and obstetric problems. They are often the first point of contact for women seeking specific care for their reproductive and sexual health, and can refer you to other specialists for further or specialist treatment if necessary

What happens during a consultation with a gynaecologist?

A typical consultation with a gynaecologist begins with an in-depth interview in which the professional asks you about your medical history if this is your first consultation, your current gynaecological symptoms, and any specific concerns you have about women's health. The gynaecologist will then carry out a full gynaecological examination, including a pelvic examination, screening for infection if necessary, and other relevant assessments depending on your needs. This examination will enable the gynaecologist to recommend appropriate treatments, such as contraceptives, hormone therapies, minor surgical procedures, or advice on managing various symptoms.

Is a consultation with a gynaecologist reimbursed by Swiss insurance?

Consultations with a gynaecologist are covered by compulsory basic insurance in Switzerland (LAMal). However, it is advisable to check the specific conditions of your insurance to confirm coverage. For example, for preventive gynaecological consultations, only the first two consultations are covered and then, if the results are normal, only one consultation every three years is covered.

How can pregnant women stay safe in high temperatures?

In high temperatures, pregnant women are advised to avoid going out in the sun when it is hottest, especially between 11am and 4pm, and to stay indoors or in shaded or air-conditioned areas. Placing a damp cloth on the back of the neck or forehead can help with cooling. Hot baths should also be avoided to prevent heat stroke.

Do you need to see a gynaecologist regularly if you have relationships with women?

Yes, it is important to seek advice for all types of sexual relationships. Studies have shown that women in same-sex relationships are often less concerned about sexually transmitted infections, yet they are just as vulnerable. Because gynaecology is frequently associated only with contraception, some women skip consultations — but regular gynaecological check-ups remain important.
