However, in some cases, ovarian cysts can cause pain, discomfort, and other symptoms. Ovarian cysts are very common and can occur at any age, but they are more common during the reproductive years.
There are several types of ovarian cysts, including:
1. Functional cysts: These are the most common type of ovarian cysts and develop as a normal part of the menstrual cycle. They usually go away on their own within a few weeks or months.
2. Endometriomas: These cysts develop as a result of endometriosis, a condition in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus.
3. Cystadenomas: These cysts develop on the surface of the ovary and are filled with watery or mucous-like fluid.

2. Medications: Hormonal contraceptives, such as birth control pills, can help regulate the menstrual cycle and prevent new cysts from forming.
3. Surgery: In more severe cases, surgery may be necessary to remove the cyst or the entire ovary. This is more likely if the cyst is large, causing severe pain or other symptoms, or if it is suspected to be cancerous.

Genital prolapse, also known as pelvic organ prolapse, occurs when one or more organs in the pelvic region, such as the uterus, bladder, or rectum, slip out of their normal positions and bulge into or outside of the vaginal canal. This can occur due to weakened pelvic muscles and ligaments, often as a result of pregnancy, childbirth, aging, menopause, or conditions that cause increased pressure in the abdomen such as chronic coughing or constipation.

2. A bulging sensation or visible bulge in the vagina or outside the body
3. Urinary incontinence or difficulty emptying the bladder

2. Pessaries: A pessary is a small device that is inserted into the vagina to help support the pelvic organs.
3. Surgery: In more severe cases, surgery may be necessary to repair the pelvic floor muscles and restore the normal position of the organs. This may involve a vaginal approach or an abdominal approach, depending on the specific circumstances.
It is important for women with genital prolapse to work closely with their gynaecologists to develop an individualized treatment plan and to monitor for potential complications, such as urinary tract infections or recurrence of the prolapse.
Laparoscopy
Get your self treated by the best Laparoscopic Surgeon in Greater Noida for Gynaecological Surgeries
Laparoscopic surgery, also known as minimally invasive surgery, is a surgical technique that uses small incisions and a tiny camera to view and operate on internal organs. In gynecology, laparoscopic surgery is commonly used to diagnose and treat a variety of conditions, including infertility, pelvic pain, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, and fibroids.
During laparoscopic surgery in gynecology, the surgeon makes small incisions in the abdomen and inserts a laparoscope (a thin, lighted tube with a camera) to view the organs. Additional small incisions may be made for other surgical instruments, such as scissors, forceps, or lasers, to perform the procedure.
Compared to traditional open surgery, laparoscopic surgery in gynecology has many benefits, including:
1. Faster recovery time: Smaller incisions mean less trauma to the body, which results in a quicker recovery time.
2. Reduced pain and discomfort: Smaller incisions and less tissue damage during laparoscopic surgery can result in less pain and discomfort.
3. Less scarring: Smaller incisions also mean less scarring compared to open surgery.
4. Shorter hospital stay: In most cases, patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery can be discharged from the hospital on the same day or the following day.
5. Improved accuracy: The laparoscope provides a clear view of the organs, which can help the surgeon to perform the procedure with greater accuracy.
Some common laparoscopic procedures performed in gynecology include:
1. Hysterectomy: Removal of the uterus, often used to treat conditions such as fibroids or heavy menstrual bleeding.
2. Ovarian cyst removal: Laparoscopic surgery can remove ovarian cysts while preserving the ovaries.
3. Endometriosis surgery: Laparoscopic surgery can help diagnose and treat endometriosis, a painful condition where the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus grows outside of it.
Laparoscopic surgery in gynecology is a safe and effective alternative to traditional open surgery for many conditions. Patients should consult with their gynaecologist to determine if laparoscopic surgery is right for them. Dr Latika Singh Sinsinwar has successfully performed hundreds of Laparoscopies and her patients have been immensely benefitted.
Hysteroscopy
Hysteroscopy is also a minimally invasive procedure just like laparoscopy.
Hysteroscopy is a medical procedure that involves the insertion of a thin, lighted instrument called a hysteroscope into the vagina and through the cervix into the uterus. The hysteroscope allows the surgeon to examine the inside of the uterus and identify any abnormalities, such as polyps, fibroids, or scar tissue.
During the procedure, a fluid or gas may be used to expand the uterus, which helps the surgeon get a better view. If any abnormalities are identified, they may be removed or biopsied during the hysteroscopy.
Hysteroscopy can be performed for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. Diagnostic hysteroscopy is used to identify the cause of abnormal uterine bleeding, infertility, or other uterine abnormalities. Therapeutic hysteroscopy can be used to remove polyps or fibroids, treat abnormal uterine bleeding, or remove scar tissue.
Hysteroscopy is generally a safe and well-tolerated procedure, but there is a small risk of complications, such as bleeding, infection, or damage to the uterus or other organs. The procedure is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local or general anesthesia, and most women are able to return to their normal activities within a day or two.
Dr Latika Singh Sinsinwar is very well experienced in successfully performing hysteroscopy. Hysteroscopy can be an effective tool in diagnosing and treating uterine abnormalities and can help improve women's health and quality of life.

Dr Latika Singh Sinsinwar is among the best infertility specialists in greater Noida. With her medical expertise and rational and honest approach she has helped many families on their way to parenthood and successfully delivered many precious bundles of joy.
Infertility is a medical condition that affects many couples around the world. It is defined as the inability to conceive a child after one year of unprotected sex. There are several different infertility treatments available, depending on the underlying cause of infertility. Some common treatments for infertility include:
1. Medications / Ovulation Induction: Fertility drugs can help stimulate ovulation in women who are not ovulating regularly. They can also be used to help regulate the menstrual cycle, improve the quality of the eggs, or increase sperm count in men.
2. Intrauterine insemination (IUI): IUI involves placing sperm directly into the uterus during ovulation to increase the chances of fertilization.
3. In vitro fertilization (IVF): IVF is a procedure that involves retrieving eggs from the ovaries, fertilizing them with sperm in a laboratory, and then transferring the resulting embryo(s) into the uterus.
4. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI): ICSI is a procedure that involves injecting a single sperm directly into the egg to increase the chances of fertilization.
5. Surgery: In some cases, surgery may be necessary to treat conditions that are causing infertility, such as blocked fallopian tubes or fibroids.
The type of infertility treatment recommended will depend on the underlying cause of infertility. It is important to consult with a fertility specialist to determine the best course of treatment. Infertility treatment can be expensive and may not always be successful, so it is important for couples to carefully consider their options and be prepared for the emotional and financial aspects of the treatment process.
It is also important to note that infertility treatments can come with potential risks and side effects. For example, fertility drugs can increase the risk of multiple births, while IVF can increase the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) and ectopic pregnancy. Patients should discuss the risks and benefits of each treatment option with their doctor before making a decision.
Family Planning
If you are looking for advice on Spacing between to pregnancies or Avoiding pregnancy for sometime, you don’t have to look far and wide, reach out for consultation with Dr Latika Singh Sinsinwar, one of the best gynaecologist in greater Noida. Dr Latika Singh will explain all available options in front of you along with their benefits and disadvantages, help you choose the best method for you.
There are a variety of family planning options available to women and couples, including:
1. Hormonal contraceptives: These include birth control pills, patches, injections, vaginal rings, and hormonal intrauterine devices (IUDs). Hormonal contraceptives work by preventing ovulation and thickening cervical mucus to make it more difficult for sperm to reach the egg.
2. Barrier methods: These include condoms, diaphragms, and cervical caps. Barrier methods work by physically preventing sperm from reaching the egg.
3. Long-acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs): These include hormonal or copper IUDs and contraceptive implants. LARCs are highly effective and can provide long-term contraception for several years.
4. Sterilization: This includes tubal ligation for women and vasectomy for men. Sterilization is a permanent form of contraception.
5. Fertility awareness-based methods: These include tracking ovulation and abstaining from intercourse during the fertile window, or using barrier methods during this time. Fertility awareness-based methods require education and commitment, but can be effective when used correctly.
6. Emergency contraception: This includes the "morning-after pill," which can be taken within a few days of unprotected intercourse to prevent pregnancy.
It is important for women and couples to work closely with their gynaecologist to choose a family planning method that meets their individual needs and preferences. Factors to consider may include effectiveness, side effects, convenience, and cost.
Preventive Gynaecology
Dr Latika Singh Sinsinwar focuses on the principle "prevention is better than cure". She believes that regular gynaecological follow ups as directed by international and national gynaecological societies should be undertaken by women of all ages. This prevents many deadly diseases from happening and also if unfortunately something is developing then we can detect them early and treat them successfully.
It includes – PAP smear testing and HPV Vaccination.
1. A Pap smear, also known as a Pap test, is a screening test used to detect abnormal cells in the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus that opens into the vagina. The test involves collecting cells from the cervix and examining them under a microscope to look for any changes or abnormalities that may indicate the presence of cervical cancer or precancerous cells.
The American Cancer Society recommends that women begin getting Pap smears at age 21 and continue getting them every three years until age 29. From age 30 to 65, women should get a Pap smear and human papillomavirus (HPV) test every five years, or a Pap smear alone every three years. Women over age 65 who have had regular screenings with normal results may be able to stop getting Pap smears.
Pap smears are a relatively simple and quick procedure that can be done in a gynaecologist’s OPD. The gynaecologist will insert a speculum into the vagina to hold the walls apart and then use a small brush or spatula to collect cells from the cervix. Some women may experience mild discomfort or spotting after the test, but this usually goes away quickly.
Regular Pap smears are important because they can help detect cervical cancer early, when it is more treatable. It is important for women to follow their gynaecologist’s recommendations for screening and to report any unusual symptoms, such as abnormal bleeding or discharge, to her right away.
2. HPV (human papillomavirus) vaccinations are vaccines that help protect against certain strains of HPV that can cause cancers and other diseases, such as genital warts. HPV is a common sexually transmitted infection, and most sexually active people will be infected with HPV at some point in their lives.
The HPV vaccine is typically recommended for both males and females between the ages of 9 and 45. The vaccine is most effective when given before a person becomes sexually active, as it helps protect against the most common strains of HPV that can cause cancer. The vaccine is usually given as a series of two or three shots over a period of several months.
The HPV vaccine is generally safe and well-tolerated, with few side effects. The most common side effects include pain or redness at the injection site, mild fever, and headache. Serious allergic reactions are rare.
