Can a gynecologist perform a colonoscopy?

While gynecologists primarily focus on women's reproductive health, they are not typically trained to perform colonoscopies, which are usually conducted by gastroenterologists or colorectal surgeons. However, some gynecologists may receive additional training in gastrointestinal procedures and could perform a colonoscopy, but this is not common practice. Generally, it's best to consult a specialist in gastrointestinal health for colonoscopy procedures.
