Second Opinion on Gynecology

Expert opinion and online consultations on a wide range of diseases and conditions available on your computer or any mobile device.

You would most probably seek an external women's health expert when your doctor says you need a surgery or some other invasive procedure. A second opinion may also be needed if the recommended non-surgical treatment carries a risk of side effects and a significant deterioration in quality of life. Another fairly typical case is doubts about the gynecological diagnosis or interpretation of the examination results. In addition, third-party evaluation by an experienced gynecologist helps to find a way out of difficult situations when the treatment does not bring the expected effect. The emotional aspect is also important: if you lack a trusting relationship with your doctor, you have to look for an alternative, and remote advice is often more comfortable than personal visits to the nearest women's clinic.

The range of issues that a qualified gynecologist can handle in a remote appointment is broad and may include:

  • inflammatory diseases of the female genital organs;
  • benign and malignant neoplasms of the vagina, cervix, uterine body, ovaries;
  • hormonal disorders;
  • irregular menstruation;
  • sexually transmitted infections;
  • uterine prolapse;
  • endometriosis.

A second opinion on women’s health delivered as a remote consultation can have a written form, when the expert's answer is provided in writing. Another option is a real-time conversation (usually an Internet video conference). In any case, its indispensable component is a general assessment of the situation: agreement or disagreement with the diagnosis, as well as the diagnosis work-up and interpretation of its results. In case of disagreement, supporting arguments are given, and if the tests and other studies were insufficient, the doctor's conclusion will specify the additional tests to be done.

The key part of the second doctor's opinion on gynecology in any of its variations is recommendations for further action. The most common options include:

  • the need for surgical intervention, as well as its optimal type, extent and timing;
  • the use of medications as monotherapy or in addition to surgery;
  • follow-up procedure plan based on current clinical guidelines.

Remote consultations cannot help with urgent gynecologic conditions requiring emergency care. Therefore, a second opinion is unlikely to be appropriate in cases of severe abdominal or pelvic pain, heavy or prolonged vaginal bleeding, signs of acute infection (fever, chills and sharp pain), pregnancy complications (heavy bleeding or dizziness), ectopic pregnancy.

Sometimes it is impossible or difficult to assess a medical situation if medical information (results of laboratory tests or imaging diagnostics) is insufficient or provided in an inappropriate technical format (e.g., static images instead of dynamic MRI or CT scan files). This does not mean that a second opinion is totally impossible. Full-fledged remote advice on women’s health can be obtained after the missing details have been provided.

Dr.Salehin was very helpful in explaining my pathology report. What he said did not actually oppose what my treating gynecologist had told me, but it was much more comprehensive and clear. When it concerns your life and health, it is certainly worthwhile…
