What is the opinion on the issue of women and doctors, and what is your advice to Muslim sisters and guardians regarding this matter?

The issue of a woman being alone with a male doctor is a difficult and important one. A woman must be cautious and not be in seclusion with a doctor, nor should a doctor be in seclusion with her. A woman should seek out sufficient female doctors, and if they are available, there is no need for a male doctor. However, if there is a need for a male doctor due to the unavailability of female doctors, there is no objection, out of necessity, to examination and treatment, but without seclusion. Her mahram or her husband should be with her if the examination pertains to an apparent matter. If it pertains to private parts, then her husband or another woman (like a nurse) should be with her.
