Published on: November 9, 2018

Choosing your OB/GYN is an important decision for a woman. Having a medical professional that you can count on to ensure your reproductive health is vital through all the stages of your life. Through family planning, child birth and even menopause, your OB/GYN is your touchstone for medical care involving your reproductive health. Choosing the right one is a personal choice – here are a few tips to find the right one for you.

  • What services do they offer? A younger woman will want an OB/GYN that will be able to help her with many needs throughout her reproductive years. Choose a doctor that offers contraception, pregnancy care and delivery for all your needs. Older woman will want to ensure they offer menopause care.
  • Do you prefer natural health care? If you are inclined to want more natural methods for birth control, menopause or child birth, find an OB/GYN that will respect your beliefs. Many OB/GYNs will work with you to provide a natural child birth or methods without drugs for birth control, even offering midwifery services through their clinic.
  • Do you feel comfortable with them? One of the basic reasons to choose an OB/GYN is your comfort level. You must be able to share intimate details about your reproductive health with this person, so they should make you feel comfortable. Find an OB/GYN that you can trust and who is compassionate to your needs.

When you have the right OB/GYN, you have a medical partner that you can count on for all your reproductive needs. Don’t just pick the first one you find. Make sure they offer what you need and that you feel comfortable seeing them for all your woman wellness needs.
