and Gynecology Service offers a wide range of health care
services for women.

Gynecologic problems such as abnormal Pap tests,
menstrual problems, pelvic pain, infections, infertility,
premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and gynecologic cancers are
evaluated and treated using the most advanced technology
and procedures.
Other services include annual exams with family planning,
contraception, breast exams, Pap tests, mammography,
and pregnancy testing and counseling, menopause
counseling.
Obstetrics
Working with MIT Medical obstetrician/gynecologists and nurse
practitioners, Mount Auburn physicians and certified nurse
midwives provide complete prenatal care, including pregnancy
testing, birth planning, and health education, as well as
the necessary tests, support, and encouragement. Physicians
who specialize in maternal/fetal medicine are available for
women who have special medical or genetic concerns or face
high-risk pregnancies.
The Birthplace
The Mount Auburn Birthplace combines care, compassion, and
technology to offer parents-to-be and families a homey and
comfortable setting for births. Mothers stay in one room through
labor, delivery, and recovery, and rooms are equipped with
private baths and showers and some with jacuzzis. If necessary,
cesarean sections rooms are immediately adjacent as are anesthesiologists
who are in-house 24 hours a day. Pediatricians and neonatal
nurses are also in house 24 hours a day for babies who require
special care following delivery. Alternate birth experiences
such as birthing chairs, birthing balls, hypno-birthing, doulas
and water births are available.
