Gynaecological Examination
& HPV Vaccination
Routine screening and preventive care — because early detection and vaccination are the most effective tools in women's health.
Why This Matters
Prevention Before treatment
A pelvic examination is a straightforward clinical assessment of the female reproductive organs — including the vagina, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It is one of the most important routine health checks available to women, yet many delay or skip it entirely.
Combined with HPV vaccination, regular gynaecological screening significantly reduces the risk of cervical and other HPV-related cancers. Human papillomavirus (HPV) has over 100 known types, of which approximately 40 can cause disease. Types 16 and 18 are responsible for the majority of cervical cancers. There is no effective treatment for HPV once contracted — but vaccination provides strong prevention.
At Angel Baby Clinic, we offer both comprehensive gynaecological examinations and the nine-valent HPV vaccine as part of our commitment to women's health beyond fertility.

How it works
The examination & vaccination process
Pelvic Examination
1
Preparation
Schedule your appointment during a non-menstrual period. No special preparation is required. The entire examination takes approximately 10 minutes.
2
Visual Inspection
The doctor performs an external visual assessment of the vulva and pelvic area to check for any visible abnormalities.
3
Internal Examination
A speculum is gently inserted to allow the doctor to examine the vaginal walls and cervix. Cervical cell samples are collected for Pap smear and HPV testing.
4
Bimanual Palpation
The doctor palpates the uterus, ovaries, and surrounding structures to check for tenderness, enlargement, or masses.
5
Results
Pap smear and HPV test results are typically available within 2–3 days to one week. Your doctor will discuss findings and any recommended follow-up.
