A look at women’s health / Diagnostics / Articles about health / Articles and encyclopedia / madez.ru equipped with modern diagnostic equipment and, importantly, the ability to get all the necessary services in one place.

Over the 13 years of its existence, the Women’s Health Center has gained a reputation as one of the leading medical centers in Tomsk in the field of women’s health – more and more patients and couples decide to turn here for assistance in solving existing problems or for consultation and prevention.

Today, obstetrician-gynecologists, gynecological surgeons, mammologists (oncologists), endocrinologists, urologist, neurologist, psychologist, dermatovenereologist, otolaryngologist, ophthalmologist are receiving at the center, there is the possibility of laboratory diagnostics, all types of ultrasound diagnostics are carried out, endoscopic surgeries and surgeries are performed in plastic surgery. Such a wide range of specialists and services gives patients a chance to resort to collegiate medical assistance in case of a complex diagnosis. The team of professionals of the center, without wasting precious time for each patient, is always ready to discuss the exact diagnosis and prescribe effective treatment; in this case, additional consultations and examinations outside the clinic will no longer be needed.
A special pride of the center is its personnel. Among the employees there is a large percentage of doctors with doctoral and candidate degrees, specialists of the highest category. The specialists of the Center constantly improve their professional skills, take part in medical conferences, seminars, symposiums.
Another advantage of the clinic is the availability of expert class ultrasound equipment with 3D/4D modes. This equipment allows you to examine in detail the internal organs and anatomical parameters, identify any pathology, which is extremely important for prenatal examination. In addition, this type of ultrasound becomes for many parents the first moment of getting to know their child, allowing you to establish a special emotional connection with him even before birth.

One of its main tasks “Center for Women’s Health” considers the need to inform patients that prevention, early diagnosis of diseases and risk factors for their occurrence makes it possible to conduct effective treatment in a timely manner, prevent further development of the disease and the development of serious complications. To solve this problem, screening programs have been introduced at the center. A woman’s health is subject to a whole range of serious diseases (cervical pathology, breast cancer, infertility), which at the initial stage of their development are often asymptomatic. Even when a woman is not bothered by anything, there are no signs of malaise, it is likely that certain health disorders will be revealed during such an examination. So, in the event that cancer is diagnosed at an early – first or second – stage, treatment and recovery occurs with the least problems and in a shorter time. Once a year, devoting a little time to yourself, you can get all the comprehensive information about your health and live in peace. It is necessary to make it a rule to go to medical examinations not just for show, but for yourself in the first place.

Whether patients want to receive advice on benign formations, on the selection of contraception, come to family psychological counseling, conduct ultrasound diagnostics, they must be sure that their problem will be treated with all the attention and care. One of the fundamental principles of the Center’s activities is to work with maximum attention to the problems of patients.

A unique direction of the center’s work is the pregnancy management program, which is not presented anywhere else in Tomsk. From the first visit here, women who are expecting a baby are given an individual card, during pregnancy they pass absolutely all the tests here, receive the necessary consultations – and practically from the center they go to give birth. The center will also help you choose a maternity hospital and a doctor – they have established contact with the best obstetricians in the city.
Preparation for IVF is another important activity of the center. Since the IVF procedure itself is carried out in Novosibirsk, in the Tomsk center you can pre-pass all the necessary tests and undergo the necessary procedures, which is very convenient: a woman does not need to go to another city in advance, spending extra time, nerves and money on this.

“Women’s Health Center” works both on a paid basis and in the system of voluntary medical insurance. Its partners are such insurance companies as SOGAZ, Transneft, MAKS, Ingosstrakh, MetLife and many others.

Women’s health determines the health of the generation and therefore our future! Keeping track of your health is both necessary and possible if professionals from the Women’s Health Center are always nearby.

Women’s health: preservation of youth for many years

Women’s health is the most valuable thing that every representative of the beautiful half of humanity has. Preservation of psychological and physical health is the most important and vital priority for any modern person. For a woman, health is an opportunity to preserve youth for many years.

Unfortunately, at any age, a woman is faced with various diseases that can not only cause anxiety, but also turn into serious problems that affect the quality of life.

One of the aspects that affect women’s health are gynecological diseases that every woman has to deal with. It can be both relatively harmless colpitis and serious diseases, the result of which can be the development of severe complications up to oncology and deprivation of the opportunity to become a mother. That is why girls should know the main points regarding issues of the female genital area: the normal duration of menstruation, indicators of a healthy hormonal background, pregnancy planning issues, symptoms of gynecological diseases and others.

Gynecology studies the anatomy, physiology, psyche and psychology of the female body. Its most important tasks are the detection, treatment and prevention of diseases of the reproductive system. Currently, all gynecological diseases are divided into:

• Sexually transmitted diseases. This group includes ailments that are transmitted through unprotected sexual intercourse. Many of them can later cause infertility.
• Diseases affecting the pelvic organs and proceeding in the form of inflammatory processes.
• Ailments that are not inflammatory, but of a different nature of occurrence (endometriosis, neoplasms).
• Endocrine changes that develop as a result of hormonal disruptions (the formation of polyps, cysts, the development of infertility, menstrual irregularities).

Gynecology also plays an important role in family planning, namely, it helps to conceive, bear and give birth to a healthy child. Regular visits to the gynecologist allow the expectant mother to avoid many problems related to the intrauterine development of the baby and her well-being directly.

During menopause, women should also visit a gynecological office. An experienced specialist will select the appropriate therapy, which can significantly reduce the severity of the manifestations of menopause, thereby alleviating the patient’s condition.

Diagnosis

Diagnosis of diseases of the genital area is carried out not only with the help of conventional examinations, but also with the help of special equipment. Clinics “World of Health” are equipped with the latest equipment that allows you to identify any changes that indicate the presence of a particular gynecological disease. Diagnosis is carried out as quickly and accurately as possible, which makes it possible to select and immediately begin the appropriate treatment.

Methods of treatment

Treatment methods are selected individually for each woman. The choice of technique depends on the presence of such facts as the presence of a desire to become pregnant in the future, the presence of concomitant diseases, and the age of the patient. Medical Center “World of Health” in Kolpino offers the most effective and modern treatment options:

• application of the radio wave method;
• surgery (minimally invasive) to correct certain changes.

If there is such a need, after treatment, the patients are sent to the best city hospitals for rehabilitation or further treatment. At the end of the treatment course, the effectiveness of therapy is monitored and a scheduled consultation with a gynecologist is carried out.

Regular visits to a gynecologist-endocrinologist are also extremely important for maintaining women’s health, since it is the endocrine system that affects many processes in the female body. Contacting an experienced technician should be prompt if any of the following problems are identified:

• fluctuations in body weight;
• hormonal disruptions of menopause;
• disorders in the reproductive system.

If a woman visits a gynecologist-endocrinologist for the first time, she will receive a detailed consultation and complete examination. In the presence of certain indications, auxiliary diagnostic procedures are prescribed.

Preventive breast examinations should be done by all girls from puberty onwards. The inspection is carried out annually. Women who have suffered breast injuries, abortions, diseases of the reproductive system, as well as women with hormonal disorders should pay close attention to their health.

The following methods are used as the main methods for diagnosing breast diseases:

• clinical examination – carried out by probing;
• mammography;
• breast ultrasound;
• Tissue samples (biopsy) may be taken in certain cases.

If you find signs that are not characteristic of the normal state of the mammary glands (heaviness, pain, redness, unusual discharge from the nipple, and others), you should immediately consult a doctor.

Modern medicine makes it possible to diagnose diseases in the early stages of pathology development. The specialists of our center will carry out examination, diagnostics, necessary studies, and the oncologist, in case of detection of any disease of the mammary glands, will individually form a set of therapeutic measures.

Proper nutrition plays an important role, since it is the key to the proper functioning of all organs and systems of the human body. Abuse of bad habits and malnutrition can cause serious negative consequences:

• violation of metabolic processes in the body;
• diseases of the cardiovascular system;
• failures in the endocrine system;
• diabetes mellitus;
• diseases of gastroenterology;
• obesity.

A dietitian-endocrinologist at the Medical Center “Mir Zdorovya” in Kolpino helps patients to create a proper nutrition program suitable for each individual. This takes into account such important factors as age, gender, profession, state of health, lifestyle and living conditions, the presence of bad habits, heredity and others. When drawing up specific recommendations, the diagnosis and data obtained during a comprehensive examination play a paramount role. At the same time, the metabolic processes occurring in the body, the stability and features of the functioning of the main life support systems of the human body (endocrine, nervous, digestive, and others) are studied.

Also at your service in our center any kind of massage. Thanks to high-class masseurs, you can not only improve your health, general condition of the body, increase muscle tone, normalize blood circulation, but also get closer to the dream of an ideal figure. The results of the massage are manifested in the acceleration of metabolism in the skin and muscle tissues, the restoration of blood flow in the internal organs.
