Offer

I will accompany you through your pregnancy with antenatal care examinations, 3D/4D ultrasound, first trimester screening and CTG. Partners and children are also very welcome. After the birth, I will be at your side with follow-up examinations.

For contraception I offer you the copper chain, copper and hormone IUDs, the contraceptive stick "Implanon", as well as other hormonal methods and also give you tips on natural family planning.

Regular provision

Regular gynaecological check-ups are important for the early detection and prevention of diseases. In my practice I offer you

• PAP smear: for the early detection of cervical cancer.
• Breast examination, mammography and breast ultrasound: for the early detection of breast cancer.
• Ultrasound examinations: Both transvaginal and transabdominal for detailed examination of the uterus and ovaries.

Diagnostic examinations

For a comprehensive diagnosis, I offer various tests to monitor your health in the best possible way:

• HPV test: For the detection of human papillomaviruses, which can cause cervical cancer.
• Hormone test: To assess your hormone balance.
• Blood and urine tests: To check various health parameters.
• STD tests: For the detection of sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia, HIV and syphilis.
• Bone density measurement: For the diagnosis and prevention of osteoporosis.

Prevention and counselling

In addition to diagnostics, prevention and counselling are particularly important to me. I support you with

• Vaccinations: For example, against HPV to reduce the risk of cervical cancer.
• Nutritional counselling: To promote your general health and to support you with special health needs.
• Lifestyle advice: For a healthy lifestyle that has a positive effect on your gynaecological health.
• Sexual counselling: To support you with questions and problems relating to your sexuality.

Gynaecological treatments

If treatment is necessary, I offer various options in my practice:

• Treatment of infections: Bacterial and viral.
• Hormone therapy: For hormone disorders.
• Menopause counselling and treatment: To accompany you through the menopause.

With these comprehensive services, I ensure that your gynaecological health is always monitored and promoted in the best possible way.

Pregnancy counselling

I offer you comprehensive care and state-of-the-art examinations to ensure that your pregnancy is safe and comfortable:

• 3D/4D ultrasound: This service is included for my patients. However, you can also book it separately to get impressive images of your baby.
• Counselling and help with high-risk pregnancies: If your pregnancy brings with it particular challenges, I will support you with my expertise and experience.
• First trimester screening: for the early detection of anomalies.
• NIPT (non-invasive prenatal testing): For the detection of genetic diseases without risk to mother and child.
• CTG (cardiotocography): To monitor your baby's heart rate and labour activity.
•  Support for pregnancy complaints

After the birth

Even after the birth, I am at your side with follow-up examinations so that you and your baby are optimally supported and you can recover well:

• Help with breastfeeding problems
• Diagnosis and treatment of breast inflammation
• Contraceptive counselling during breastfeeding

IUDs, copper chain and copper ball

I specialise in the insertion of various intrauterine contraceptives (IUDs), which provide long-term and effective contraception:

• Copper chain (GyneFix): A hormone-free contraceptive method that works for up to five years.
• Hormonal IUDs (Jaydess, Kyleena, Mirena): Provide reliable contraception for three to five years and can alleviate menstrual cramps.
• Copper IUD: A hormone-free option that offers protection for up to ten years.
• Copper ball: an innovative method that is effective for up to five years

Hormonal contraceptive methods

In addition to IUDs and copper chains, I also offer a wide range of hormonal contraceptive methods:

• "Contraceptive pill": Various preparations that can be adapted to your health needs and lifestyle.
• "Mini pill": Two preparations that continuously use very few hormones to protect you particularly gently against an unwanted pregnancy.
• Contraceptive ring: A flexible ring that is inserted into the vagina and continuously releases hormones.
• Hormone patch: Is changed weekly and releases hormones through the skin.
• Contraceptive rod (Implanon): A small rod that is inserted under the skin of the upper arm and provides a very high level of protection for up to three years

Advice on natural contraceptive methods

For women who would like to avoid hormonal or mechanical methods, I also offer counselling on natural contraceptive methods. Natural family planning (NFP) includes cycle monitoring to determine fertile and infertile days by means of temperature measurement and cervical mucus monitoring.

Together with you, I will find the best contraceptive method for you and your life situation through individual and empathetic counselling.

Diagnostics

In order to get to the bottom of the causes of an unfulfilled desire to have children, I offer various diagnostic procedures:

• Cycle monitoring: Precise observation and analysis of the menstrual cycle to determine the optimum time for fertilisation.
• Intravaginal 3D ultrasound examinations: to rule out changes to the uterus and ovaries that could prevent pregnancy or to clarify the question of whether PCO syndrome or severe endometriosis is present, for example
•  Spermiogram (for the partner): Analysis of sperm quality to identify possible male factors for infertility.

Fertility treatments

Depending on the results of the diagnostics, I offer you various treatment options to help you on the way to your dream child:

• Intrauterine insemination (IUI): A treatment in which processed sperm is introduced directly into the uterus to increase the chances of fertilisation.
• Assistance with in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and other assisted reproduction techniques
• Support in the preparation and realisation of your child's dream trip abroad to ensure the best possible chances of success.

All women and couples are welcome in my practice. I am also open and supportive to the LGBT+ community when it comes to the desire to have children. My practice is a place of lived diversity.

Emotional care and support

In addition to medical care, the emotional support of my patients and couples is very important to me. An unfulfilled desire to have children can be a great emotional burden and I take the time to accompany and support you during this difficult phase. Through empathetic discussions and individual care, I will help you not to lose hope and to realise your dream of having your own child.

I look forward to welcoming you to my practice and working together to promote your health. Make an appointment online now and experience empathetic and comprehensive care in all areas of gynaecology.

Your Dr Stefan Buballa
