About Dr. Lubna Ahmad

An obstetrician and gynecologist is a medical professional who specializes in the care of women's reproductive health. They have extensive knowledge and expertise in both obstetrics and gynecology, which are two closely related fields. Obstetrics focuses on the management of pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care. Obstetricians provide prenatal care, monitoring the health of the mother and the developing fetus throughout pregnancy. They perform regular check-ups, order diagnostic tests, and provide counseling on nutrition, exercise, and overall well-being during pregnancy. They also manage complications that may arise during pregnancy, such as gestational diabetes, high blood pressure, or fetal distress. During childbirth, obstetricians assist in the delivery process, ensuring the safety and well-being of both the mother and the baby. They may also perform cesarean sections (C-sections) if necessary. Postpartum care involves monitoring the mother's recovery after childbirth and providing guidance on breastfeeding, contraception, and emotional support.
