Frequently Asked Questions
Clear, compassionate answers to the questions patients ask Dr. Fehmida Shaikh most often.
What does a comprehensive well-woman health check include?
A well-woman visit includes complete clinical history, pelvic examination, cervical Pap smear screening, breast examination, pelvic ultrasound if indicated, and blood panels assessing thyroid function, haemoglobin, blood glucose, and bone health markers.
At what age should women schedule regular gynaecological check-ups?
Routine annual gynaecological visits are advised for all sexually active women or starting from age 21. For women aged 40 and above, regular perimenopause, mammography, and cervical cancer screenings become especially crucial.
What are the common signs of perimenopause and menopause?
Common symptoms include irregular menstrual periods, hot flashes, night sweats, sleep disturbances, mood swings, vaginal dryness, decreased libido, and unexplained fatigue or weight changes.
What treatments help manage severe menopausal hot flashes and discomfort?
Options range from lifestyle and dietary adjustments, non-hormonal prescription medications, and calcium/Vitamin D3 supplementation to carefully evaluated Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) tailored to your individual health profile.
How does menopause affect bone density and cardiovascular wellness?
Declining oestrogen levels accelerate bone density loss (osteopenia/osteoporosis) and affect lipid profiles. Dr. Shaikh provides proactive screening, bone density assessments, and preventive therapies to preserve long-term bone and heart health.
Should postmenopausal bleeding always be evaluated by a doctor?
Yes. Any spotting or bleeding occurring 12 months or more after your final period is abnormal and requires prompt clinical evaluation, ultrasound, and endometrial assessment to rule out hyperplasia or malignancy.
