10 Questions to Ask Your OB/GYN Doctor

Crystal Run Healthcare is all about helping you achieve your optimal health. Our OB/GYNs are here to help! Regardless of why you are making an appointment to visit with your doctor, it’s always important to come in prepared.

Asking questions like, “What is my ideal weight?” and “Do I need any special screenings?”, will help both you and your doctor establish what stage of life you are in and how to treat your particular needs. If you are pregnant, your needs will be much different than someone who is going through menopause.

Asking doctors about more “generic” questions such as, “Should I be following a certain diet?” or “How do I quit smoking?”, will establish a conversation based on your individual priorities and will help your doctor understand how to go about treating you for current or future needs.

If you are pregnant, you will want to ask questions about what to expect throughout your pregnancy, what to expect during labor and delivery, potential warning signs and when to call the doctor, what to do when your water breaks, and more. By having a conversation with your doctor to prepare you for pregnancy, your expectations can be managed and you will be thoroughly educated.
