Looking for a male or female recommended Gynaecologist in Malaysia? Gynaecology or gynecology is the medical practice dealing with the health of the female reproductive systems (vagina, uterus and ovaries), breasts and pregnancy related management. Literally, outside medicine, it means "the science of women". Popular related procedures include Caesarean section (C-Section), IVF (In-Vitro Fertilisation) etc. Almost all modern and top gynaecologists are also obstetricians and therefore the term obstetricians & gynecologists or O&G in short.

Lastly, some brands may have many parts which may be troublesome to clean. Silicone bottles are soft and most closely resemble a breast, making it easier fo...
