Obstetrics & Gynaecology
గైనకాలజీ
Care for women through pregnancy, childbirth and every stage of life. Dr Bala Manikyamba, MS, provides obstetrics and gynaecology consultations, pregnancy and maternity care, vaginal (normal) delivery and laparoscopic hysterectomy. The delivery approach and suitability of surgery are always decided after an individual clinical assessment.
When to consider a consultation
- You are planning a pregnancy or have just found out you are pregnant
- Regular antenatal check-ups during pregnancy
- Irregular, painful or heavy periods
- Abnormal vaginal discharge or bleeding between periods
- Pelvic or lower abdominal pain
- Symptoms around menopause
- A need to discuss surgery such as hysterectomy
These are common reasons people seek care. They do not diagnose a condition. Your doctor decides what applies to you.
Seek emergency care if
- Heavy vaginal bleeding, in or outside pregnancy
- Reduced or no baby movements
- Water breaking before the expected time, or regular painful contractions early
- Severe abdominal pain
- Severe headache, blurred vision or swelling of the face and hands in pregnancy
- A fit during pregnancy

Common questions
Is normal delivery always possible?
Many women can have a normal delivery. The approach depends on your health, your baby's position and condition, and how labour progresses, and is decided by your doctor.
When is laparoscopic hysterectomy suggested?
It may be considered for certain uterine conditions when other treatment is unsuitable or has not worked. Suitability is decided after assessment.
When should I start antenatal visits?
As early as possible after a positive pregnancy test, so that check-ups, tests and advice can start early.
