Causes of Painful Periods

- Uterine fibroids
- Pelvic inflammatory disease

What our patient say about us ?
I was accidentally diagnosed with dermoid cyst ovary at the age of 21.
I am lucky to get operated by Dr Aruna. She treated me as a mother. Her operative skills are
to be admired. Cyst was removed, ovary sutured and follow up ultrasound was perfectly clear.
I could join back after a week with no residual pain. I am really thankful to Dr Aruna.
Doctor did my aunt’s surgery for endometriotic cyst. It was 7.5 *8 cm chocolate
cyst. She was unable to conceive. After removing cyst laparoscopically, Dr Aruna rightly
advised her next steps for conception. Very patient and humble. Always answered her endless
queries. Recovery was also very easy from the surgery. I would recommend her to everyone.
Dr. Aruna Kalra is highly experienced Obstetrics & Gynaecology Surgeon. Her
treatment and laparoscopic surgery procedures for complicated and critical gynaecological
cases is of world class standard and highly recommended. She is very much friendly to deal
with patients and make them smile. She is no doubt an angel with blessing of God to serve
the human beings. We are highly thankful to Dr. Kalra.
I was bleeding heavily every month with excruciating pain starting many days
before periods. I was mistreated and misguided, given repeated courses of hormones. When I
met Dr Aruna, she explained the disease is adenomyosis and spread of endometriosis. After my
laparoscopy, we discussed how to prevent recurrence and followed her treatment. I believe,
once knew the reason of my disease, it felt better to understand the management, Dr Aruna
explains at length. She makes you comfortable before surgery with thorough counselling. Best
gynaecologist.
I am having wonderful experience with Aruna ma'am. Her experience can be seen
in her consultation. She is friendly as I feel free to ask any question to her. She answered
all of my queries with patience. Best part is she always prefer normal delivery over c
section. I experienced painless delivery. I can never forget her support and the way she
keep smile like she expertise in her work. I surely suggest dr. Aruna kalra and I am happy
with my decision.
I am thanking doctor Aruna on this platform to acknowledge her expertise. My
sister was not able to conceive because of a fibroid inside to uterus. We seeked her
opinion, got her reference through distant relative. We came from Kolkata got operated
laparoscopic myomectomy and after 6 months of monthly treatment under ma’am’s guidance, she
is blessed with 6 months pregnancy now. I wish we knew about Dr Kalra before. Best
laparoscopic surgeon, very best human being.
I met Dr. Aruna when i was planning fr a baby. Had met 2-3 gynaecologists
before her but my experience was very bad. Me and my husband were very happy with her during
our first consultation itself. She exudes so much positivity and confidence that its
infectious. She is a very easy going and humble person. Can discuss even the silliest
concerns with her and she would resolve it. I feel very fortunate to have found such a
doctor. She made my pregnancy journey very smooth. Would highly recommend her.
I feel very fortunate to have Best Gynae Oncho Surgeon in Gurgaon. She made my
pregnancy journey very smooth with normal painless delivery. No doubt She is the Best
Gynaecologist in Gurgaon.
