GYNECOLOGICAL TREATMENTS FREQUENTLY APPLIED IN TURKEY:​

ENDOMETRIOSIS 

Endometriosis is a condition in which the inner lining of the uterus (endometrium) spreads outside the uterus and grows in other pelvic organs. Treatment methods include medicine therapy, surgery, and alternative treatments. While medicine therapy includes hormone regulators, surgical intervention is aimed at removing lesions or cysts. In some cases, alternative treatments may also be helpful in relieving symptoms.

​

MYOM TREATMENTS

Fibroids are benign tumors of smooth muscle cells in the uterus. Treatment methods may vary depending on the size, location, and symptoms of the fibroids. With medicine treatment, it can be aimed to alleviate symptoms or to stop fibroid growth. Surgical removal of fibroids (myomectomy) or removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) may be considered.

​

POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME 

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that causes problems in ovulation in women due to hormonal imbalances. Treatment focuses on managing symptoms and regulating ovulation. Lifestyle changes, weight control, birth control pills, insulin regulators and ovulation-stimulating medicines are among the methods used in treatment.

​

URINARY INCONTINENCE TREATMENT 

Urinary incontinence is the loss of urinary control and is a common problem among women. Treatment may vary depending on the type, severity, and cause of urinary incontinence. Exercises to strengthen the pelvic floor muscles, bladder training, behavioral therapy and, in some cases, surgical intervention are among the methods used to treat urinary incontinence.

​

OVARIAN CYST

Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form in the ovary. Treatment is planned according to the size, appearance and symptoms of the cyst. Small and harmless cysts are usually followed, while large or uncomfortable cysts can be surgically removed. The treatment method is determined by evaluating whether the cyst is benign or malignant.

​

SMEAR TEST 

The smear test is a screening test that aims to detect cervical cancer or precancerous cells by examining cell samples taken from the cervix. During the test, the gynecologist takes cell samples using a special brush or spatula and sends them to the laboratory. The smear test provides the opportunity for early diagnosis and treatment by ensuring that the health of the cervix is regularly checked. Therefore, it is an important screening method for sexually active women.

The HPV vaccine is a vaccine developed to protect against the human papillomavirus (HPV). HPV is a sexually transmitted virus and has several types. While some types cause warts on the genitals, other types can cause cancers of the cervix, vagina, vulva, penis, anus, and some mouth and throat cancers.

 

HPV VACCINE

The HPV vaccine protects the body against infections caused by the virus by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies against HPV. This vaccine helps prevent cervical cancer and other related cancers with its protective effect against diseases caused by HPV.

 

The HPV vaccine is generally recommended for men and women ages 9 to 45. Two types of HPV vaccine are available: the first protects against HPV 16 and HPV 18, the types of HPV responsible for the most common cervical cancers; the second targets both HPV 16 and HPV 18 and HPV 6 and HPV 11, which cause anogenital warts.

 

The HPV vaccine is a recommended vaccine to be administered before sexual activity begins, because the virus is transmitted through sexual contact and the efficacy of the vaccine is higher when administered before infection. HPV vaccination is an important medical intervention to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted infections and reduce the risk of HPV-related cancers. However, it should be noted that the HPV vaccine does not provide complete protection against all HPV types, so regular screening and sexual health measures are also important. It is important to talk to your healthcare provider to learn more about the vaccine and to find out if you are eligible for vaccination.
