ginecóloga

gynaecologist

noun hee-neh-KOH-loh-gah Rare
Body & Health Medicine

Origin: From Greek gynē (woman) + logos (study).

Usage Note

Ginecóloga is the feminine form; the masculine is ginecólogo. Spanish medicine uses these gendered forms alongside the gender-neutral alternative la/el especialista en ginecología. The field itself is ginecología, and learners should not confuse the stress pattern: the ó in ginecóloga carries the written accent.

Examples

"Mi ginecóloga me recomendó una revisión anual."

Natural Translation

My gynaecologist recommended an annual check-up.
