What this clinicis actually for.
Women's health here runs as continuous care rather than separate appointments: the doctor who confirms a pregnancy is the one at the delivery, and the same clinic handles the years before and after. A great deal of what comes through the door - heavy periods, PCOS, the changes around menopause - has been endured for years because it was assumed to be normal. It usually isn't, and it usually responds to treatment.
Done in-house, usually the same day: Antenatal · Delivery · Scan
- Antenatal (pregnancy) careRegular checks through pregnancy - your health, the baby's growth, and the scans due at each stage.
- Normal deliveryDelivery with the same doctor who has seen you through the pregnancy.
- Caesarean deliveryPlanned or emergency, with theatre and newborn care in the same building.
- High-risk pregnancyCloser monitoring for BP, diabetes, twins, or a difficult history.

When to wait,and when not to.
Come in straight away if
Don't book an appointment for these. Come to emergency, or call +91 9100005195.
- Any bleeding during pregnancy, at any stage
- Severe headache, blurred vision or sudden swelling of face and hands in later pregnancy
- Reduced or absent baby movements after the seventh month - come in the same day
- Fever with foul-smelling discharge, or heavy bleeding after a delivery
- Periods soaking through protection hourly, or bleeding after menopause
Lowering the risk
What actually makes a difference, not folklore.
- Start folic acid before conceiving, not after the test is positive
- Keep every antenatal appointment - most complications are caught at a routine visit
- Cervical screening from 30, then as advised; it prevents a cancer rather than finding one
- Learn how to examine your own breasts, and report any new lump without waiting
- Iron and calcium through pregnancy - anaemia is common here and entirely treatable
Looking after yourself
Alongside treatment - never instead of it.
- In pregnancy: small frequent meals, plenty of water, and rest on your left side
- Count baby movements daily in the third trimester and know your usual pattern
- Never take any medicine, including home remedies, without asking during pregnancy
- After delivery, ask for help early if you feel low or unable to cope - it is common and treatable
- Keep your scan reports and antenatal card together, and bring them to every visit
