Going to schedule pre-conception Appointment

unfortunatly i'm not sure of medical terms and i feel really stupid for asking.. i've done a lot of research and i was wonder what is the difference between an obstetrical practitioner and gynecologist?can i go to my gyno for a pre-conception exam or should i find an obstetrical practitioner?

Dont take my word on this, but I imagine that a obstetrical practitioner specialises in issues to do with pregnancy and fertility, while a gynecologist is more about general vaginal and sexual health. I'd recommend you find an OP.
