Gynecology
Complete care for women’s intimate health, with preventive exams and personalized treatments at every stage of life.
Gynecology is the foundation of women’s health care. At WM Saúde da Mulher, every appointment goes beyond a routine exam: we take the time to understand your history, your questions and where you are in life, to offer truly individualized care. We provide routine check-ups, preventive exams (such as Pap smears and colposcopy), diagnosis and treatment of gynecologic infections, contraceptive guidance and follow-up of hormonal changes, always with up-to-date technology and a team that puts you first.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have routine gynecologic check-ups?
An annual gynecologic visit is recommended from the start of sexual activity or age 21, even without symptoms. In some cases your doctor may recommend more frequent follow-up.
Do I need to bring previous exams to my first appointment?
Yes, if possible bring exams and reports from the last 12 months. This helps Dr. Monica understand your history and avoids unnecessary repeat testing.
Does the Pap smear hurt?
It’s a quick procedure and generally painless — it may cause mild discomfort. Our team explains each step beforehand so you feel at ease throughout the exam.
Are intense menstrual cramps normal?
Mild cramps are common, but intense pain that disrupts your daily life is not considered normal and deserves investigation — it may be related to endometriosis or other treatable conditions.
What documents do I need to bring to my first appointment?
A photo ID, insurance card (if applicable) and, if available, previous exams and prescriptions related to your gynecologic health.
