Adolescent Gynaecology in Hinjewadi, Pune
Adolescent gynaecology at Dr Bhavna's Women's Clinic offers calm, private consultations for teenage girls dealing with period problems, PCOS and everyday questions about growing up. Dr Bhavna Patil Singh (MBBS, DGO) has 10+ years of experience and consults in Marunji, Hinjewadi, close to Wakad, Punawale and the Life Republic Township. Parents are welcome to be part of the visit, and the aim is always to explain things simply, respect the young patient's dignity and answer worries without judgement.
When should a teenage girl see a gynaecologist?
A first gynaecology visit does not always mean something is wrong. Many parents in Hinjewadi and Wakad bring their daughters simply for reassurance and guidance. It is worth booking a consultation if periods have not started by around age 15, if cycles are very irregular, painful or unusually heavy, if there is unexpected weight change or acne with irregular periods, or if there are questions about hygiene, discharge or menstrual products.
The visit is unhurried and confidential. Dr Bhavna explains what a normal cycle looks like at this age, when variation is expected, and which symptoms deserve a closer look. An internal examination is rarely needed for teenagers and is never done routinely.
What period problems are common in adolescence?
In the first two to three years after periods begin, irregular cycles are common as the body settles into its rhythm. We assess concerns such as very heavy bleeding, missed periods, severe cramps that disturb school or sleep, and spotting between cycles.
Assessment usually starts with a gentle history and, where helpful, simple blood tests or a pelvic ultrasound arranged through attached facilities in the Hinjewadi area. Management is kept as conservative as possible and explained clearly to both the teenager and her parent, so everyone understands why each step is suggested.
How is PCOS approached in young women?
Polycystic ovary syndrome can appear in the teenage years, often showing as irregular periods, acne or unwanted hair growth. In adolescents the focus is on careful evaluation rather than rushing to labels, because some features overlap with normal puberty.
Dr Bhavna discusses the role of balanced eating, physical activity and sleep alongside any medical advice, and orders investigations only when they will change the plan. The emphasis is on long-term wellbeing and helping a young woman understand her own body. Families who want more detail can also read our dedicated PCOS treatment page.
Is the consultation private and comfortable for teenagers?
Yes. Adolescent visits are handled with discretion in a calm setting. Parents are usually part of the conversation, and there is also space for the teenager to ask questions in her own words. Consultations are available in Hindi, English and Marathi, so families feel at ease.
Health education is a natural part of the visit: menstrual hygiene, understanding the cycle, vaccination guidance and knowing what is normal. The consultation fee is ₹500 and evening OPD runs from 5:30 PM, though it helps to call ahead to confirm today's hours.
Frequently asked questions
Does my daughter need an internal examination?
No. For teenagers an internal examination is rarely required and is never done routinely. Most concerns are assessed through a gentle history, and where needed a pelvic ultrasound or blood test, which are non-invasive.
Can I stay with my daughter during the consultation?
Yes. Parents are welcome to be present throughout. There is also room for your daughter to ask her own questions so she feels comfortable and heard.
Are irregular periods normal in teenagers?
In the first few years after periods start, some irregularity is common while the body settles. It is still worth a consultation if cycles are very heavy, very painful, absent for long stretches or causing worry.
