A Gynecologist is a medical professional who has the education and training necessary to diagnose and treat illnesses and diseases that affect the female reproductive organs. Most modern gynecologists are also obstetricians. They can help with sexual dysfunction, infertility, STDs, and common infections and diseases.

Pathology is a medical subfield with a focus on the diagnosis of disease. Medical professionals who become pathologists often have background knowledge in several different areas of medicine, as this knowledge is helpful when it comes to diagnosis. Pathologists generally test for disease by analyzing tissue, body fluid, and cell samples. In this way, these doctors can diagnose problems caused by parasites, pathogens, and even non-infectious causes. This work can help other physicians make the proper treatment recommendations.
