Services includes :

• Pre-conception & antenatal care
  Dr Jagiellowicz advises on the best time to get pregnant. Basal body temperature is a fertility-based technique that’s used to detect the most suitable time to fall pregnant. Ovulation may be one of the reasons for a slightly raised basal body temperature. Women are most fertile at least three days before their basal body temperature rises. Suspected pregnancies are confirmed through hormone testing and ultrasonography. Once a woman falls pregnant, she receives comprehensive antenatal care. Regular blood and urine tests, ultrasounds and blood pressure checks are done to evaluate the mother and her baby's overall health.
• Screening for foetal abnormalities
  A foetal abnormality is known as a congenital disability that is present at birth. Mineral deficiencies, alcohol and substance abuse increase the risk of congenital foetal disabilities. The foetus may be prone to either functional or structural anomalies. Anomalies affect the heart, kidneys, nervous system and brain. An anomaly could also be the cause of a structural defect. Ultrasounds are part of routine prenatal testing and happen between weeks 18 and 23 of the pregnancy. Ultrasounds are used to diagnose the reason for structural defects, limb abnormalities and spinal issues.
• Obstetric delivery
  Obstetric delivery depends on the mother’s birthing plan. Caesarean, induction and natural vaginal delivery are birthing options. Dr Jagiellowicz advises mothers on birthing plan options and helps make the process easier than expected. Whatever the chosen method of delivery, the obstetrician will ensure that birth is a success. He will also advise on what to expect before the time of birth in terms of contractions, labour pain and water breaking. Evaluation after the delivery is necessary to check that the baby is healthy.
• Postpartum care
  Postpartum care is done to ensure that the mother is healthy after she gives birth. Postpartum care lasts for up to twelve weeks after the delivery of the baby. It's typical for mothers to experience vaginal tenderness and urinary issues. Also, a woman's hormone levels drop significantly, and this leads to fatigue and changes in her blood pressure. Traces of vaginal discharge are typical after delivery but will eventually disappear in time. Incontinence is also prevalent after the birth of the baby as pelvic floor muscles dilate. Signs of incontinence usually disappear after a few weeks. Dr Jagiellowicz carries out continuous postpartum assessments to ensure the mother and her baby are healthy.
• Well-women care
  Routine well-women care examinations should happen as often as once a year. Well-women care examinations are done to ensure that women are healthy. It’s essential to choose a gynaecologist who puts his patients at ease. Dr Jagiellowicz makes his patients feel comfortable and goes out of his way to ensure that they are healthy. During regular well-women care appointments, the doctor reviews one's gynaecological and sexual history and addresses menstrual or general medical issues. It's essential to see the gynaecologist, especially in a woman's early twenties to find out if any problems might affect one later on in life.
• Management of gynaecological conditions
  Vaginal discharge, chronic pelvic pain and menopause are common gynaecological issues. Many women suffer from persistent pelvic pain and heavy menstrual bleeding. Chronic pelvic pain radiates from the belly and can last for up to six months. Usually, regular menstrual cramps tend to recur over time. Women experience a heavy sensation near their pelvis, which makes it challenging to resume routine activities. Chronic pelvic pain also causes pain during intercourse. Pain and heavy menstrual bleeding could be a sign of fibroids, endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Menopause usually affects women in their fifties but can also occur in one's late forties. Menopause happens as a result of a decline in female hormones, oestrogen and progesterone. Due to hormonal fluctuations, women who have menopause experience hot flashes, vaginal dryness and mood swings. Dr Jagiellowicz manages menopausal symptoms and helps women live a healthy, active and productive lifestyle.
• Urinary complaints and pelvic organ prolapse
  The pelvic floor comprises of muscles and ligaments in the pelvic area. These muscles are responsible for intercourse, bowel movement and urination. When pelvic floor dysfunction occurs, the pelvic floor muscles fail to relax, but instead, contract. Pelvic floor dysfunction causes bowel discomfort and may lead to infection. Pelvic organ prolapse happens when the bladder descends and presses against the walls of the vagina. Pelvic prolapse is a result of weak pelvic floor muscles due to childbirth.
• Contraception
  Contraceptive counselling is one of Dr Jagiellowicz’s services. The use of contraceptives is essential to protect one against sexually transmitted diseases and helps put pregnancy on hold until couples are ready to start a family. Contraceptives are also prescribed to regulate hormones, ease menstrual pain and treat acne. Contraceptives may inhibit the production of eggs, prevent fertilisation or stop the viable egg from sticking to the lining of the womb. Dr Jagiellowicz educates patients on fertility awareness, the use of contraception and sex. There are so many contraceptive options such as rods, patches, creams, gels, rings, injections and pills to consider.
• Infertility
  Both women and men are susceptible to infertility. Infertility prevents one from achieving his or her reproductive goals. Dr Jagiellowicz assists infertile women. Endometriosis, fibroids and unstable hormones are factors that contribute to infertility in women. It first helps to identify the cause of infertility in women. Ovarian reserve testing, ovulation testing, pelvic ultrasound and hysteroscopy are methods used to diagnose infertility in women. Fertility drugs are, at times prescribed to stimulate the production of LH and FSH hormones. These hormones help regulate ovulation to produce healthy eggs.
• Gynaecological surgery
  As an experienced gynaecologist, Dr Jagiellowicz performs both minor and major gynaecological procedures. A hysteroscopy is a less invasive diagnostic procedure that's conducted to find the reason for infertility, heavy bleeding and pelvic pain. Biopsies are either done by colposcopy or dilation and curettage. A colposcope is a magnifying device that's used to inspect the cervix, and vagina-cervical cells are then extracted for analysis. Women who don't wish to conceive can consider permanent endometrial ablation or a hysterectomy. Endometrial ablation involves the application of heat or cold to destroy endometrial tissue. A hysterectomy is the removal of the entire uterus. Pelvic laparoscopy is another less invasive procedure Dr Jagiellowicz offers to his patients. The doctor uses a light bendable tube known as a laparoscope to repair the uterus and nearby structures.
