At U | 180, we offer women’s health treatments and services to meet the needs of our patients in all life stages. Whether you need treatment for a health condition or disorder, want to balance your hormones, need a wellness exam, or have a more advanced concern, we can provide a treatment plan that helps you achieve and maintain optimal reproductive health.
Women’s health treatments are designed to meet the needs of those in every life stage who want to take preventative or proactive steps to address their reproductive health, treat reproductive health conditions, or address their concerns. Our treatments center around the female hormone and reproductive system and can also meet the needs of women who want to begin a family or prevent pregnancy.
Our goal is to provide women with the education and quality care they need and deserve so they can make informed decisions about their health and feel confident in all their women’s health treatments.
Hormone replacement therapy is an anti-aging treatment that we can implement to help women achieve balanced hormones. Aging, pregnancy, illness, stress, medication side effects, genetics, and other factors can all cause a hormone deficiency.
This deficiency, in turn, leads to negative symptoms that interfere with quality of life. A hormonal imbalance can impact overall wellness and physical, mental, emotional, and sexual health, but we can resolve it with a bioidentical hormone replacement therapy treatment plan.
Our women’s wellness exams are designed to help women stay up-to-date with routine testing and protect their reproductive health. During this exam, we focus on vaginal, uterine, breast, and cervix health. During the appointment, women will typically undergo pelvic exams, breast exams, and pap smears.
These appointments also provide women with the space to ask any questions or discuss concerns so that they can get answers and become more informed about their health. We recommend that women schedule these exams yearly or more often if they’re dealing with a specific issue requiring more consistent care.
A low-risk pregnancy is free of any complications relating to the mother or the baby. It’s a pregnancy without serious potential risks as opposed to the opposite, that being a high-risk pregnancy. We offer low-risk obstetric care for pregnant women and will walk with them through their nine-month pregnancy journey and help them feel confident with their care and their health during this time.
We also offer STD testing and treatment to provide women with the information and care they need regarding STDs. During the appointment, we’ll perform the right test based on your symptoms, lifestyle, and primary concerns.
There are several different types of STD tests, including physical exams, blood tests, oral tests, urine tests, blister swabs, and genital swabs. If you do have an STD, we can provide you with a treatment plan that helps you promote the best possible reproductive and sexual health.
Conception management is a treatment process that includes different interventions for women during their reproductive years. Those who aren’t ready to start a family and want to avoid pregnancy can begin a conception management plan and take safe and effective steps to ensure optimal sexual health and successfully avoid pregnancy. We can give you more details about the different options you have, explain each, and help determine which is right for you.
Volvovaginal disorders are any health conditions or infections that affect the vulva or vagina. From mild to moderate to more severe conditions, we can design treatment plans to alleviate symptoms and promote optimal vaginal health.
We also treat abnormal uterine bleeding, a condition in which women experience vaginal bleeding from the uterus outside of the menstrual cycle. It can affect menstrual cycle volume, flow, duration, frequency, and regularity. We can discuss all your symptoms and design the right treatment plan after diagnosing the primary issues so that you can enjoy an improved quality of life and better reproductive health.
We also offer various women’s health procedures to meet the needs of women suffering from specific conditions and symptoms. Our goal is to provide comprehensive care for women with minor and more complex women’s health needs.
We perform vulvar biopsies, which are procedures in which we remove a sample of tissue from the vaginal region or the vulva. We can use the sample to evaluate it to check for skin diseases or cancer.
I&D stands for incision and drainage and will remove or drain a cyst or abscess. Women with cysts or abscesses interfering with their health or causing symptoms can schedule this procedure as needed and expect excellent care.
An endometrial biopsy is a procedure in which we will remove a small piece of tissue from the uterine lining. After removing the tissue, we will have it biopsied to check for irregularities or cancer.
A cervical polypectomy is a procedure in which we remove a cervical polyp, and it typically takes place during a pelvic exam. The cervical polyp is a growth of tissue on the cervix that is typically non-cancerous but can cause symptoms, including bleeding after intercourse, abnormal vaginal discharge, heavy menstrual periods, and irregular vaginal bleeding.
Women with a Bartholin cyst can schedule a drainage procedure to address this condition and restore normal reproductive health.
We also offer a treatment for Condyloma, the technical term for general warts. We can use different treatment methods to remove these warts and evaluate them to see if they indicate a more serious health concern.
Nexplanon is a type of birth control that is inserted into the inner non-dominant upper arm and will deliver hormones to prevent the ovary from releasing an egg while also thickening the cervical mucus to prevent conception. We can insert Nexplanon and remove it as needed based on each woman’s needs.
We also offer the IUD, which is another type of birth control that is inserted into the uterus to prevent pregnancy. We can schedule appointments to insert an IUD for women who choose this type of birth control and remove it when needed.
We also offer pessary maintenance treatments. A pessary is a removable device that supports the organs after uterine prolapse. We can schedule follow-up visits every few months to evaluate your pessary and make any adjustments as needed.
You can expect the highest quality healthcare when you visit our office for all your women’s health needs. Our goal is to ensure that you are completely satisfied with the care you receive and walk away feeling more empowered and informed about your health than you did walking in. If you have a minor or more complex condition or concern, we’ll take every step to ensure you receive the quality care you need and deserve.
If you need women’s health experts you can trust, our team is ready to exceed your expectations. We can schedule a consultation to give you more details about all of our treatments and move forward with the right appointment type or procedure that can help you take steps toward promoting optimal reproductive health and wellness.
