What is a gynecologic oncologist?
A gynecologic oncologist is a doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating cancers that affect the female reproductive system. This includes cancers of the ovaries, uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes, vagina, and vulva. Gynecologic oncologists undergo several years of advanced training after medical school in both gynecology and oncology. They are experts in providing treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy tailored to these specific cancers.
Why am I being referred to a gynecologic oncologist?
A person might be referred to a gynecologic oncologist if their primary care doctor finds something unusual in the reproductive organs, like a growth or abnormal cells. This can happen after an abnormal Pap smear, or due to symptoms like unusual vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain, bloating, or changes in bladder or bowel habits. A gynecologic oncologist can help figure out the cause of these symptoms by using special tests and procedures to diagnose the issue.
What are common gynecological cancers?
Common gynecological cancers include:
- Ovarian cancer affects the ovaries and is often diagnosed at a later stage due to subtle symptoms.
- Uterine (endometrial) cancer affects the lining of the uterus and is the most common gynecologic cancer.
- Cervical cancer is often caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infections and can be detected early with regular Pap smears.
- Vaginal cancer begins in the vagina, which is the hollow tube-like channel between the bottom of the uterus and the outside of the body.
- Vulvar cancer is a rare cancer that begins in the vulva, the outer part of the female genitalia.
What tests does a gynecologic oncologist perform?
A gynecologic oncologist may perform several diagnostic tests, depending on the type of cancer suspected. Common tests include:
- Pelvic exams: A physical examination of the female reproductive organs to check for abnormalities.
- Pap smears: A screening test for cervical cancer that involves collecting cells from the cervix to detect changes or signs of cancer.
- Biopsies: A procedure where a small tissue sample is taken from the affected area (like the cervix or uterus) for examination under a microscope.
- Imaging tests: Ultrasounds, computed tomography (CT) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET) scans can be used to visualize tumors and see if the cancer has spread.
- Blood tests: Some cancers produce substances called tumor markers, which can be detected in the blood. These tests help in both diagnosis and monitoring during treatment.
When should I see a Gynecologic Oncologist in California, US?

Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Gynecologic Oncologist?
Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.

- Family history of disease
- List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses
- Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.
- List of questions and concerns
- Your insurance card
You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit.
