Menstrual & Hormonal Issues
Abnormal Bleeding
Abnormal Bleeding refers to any unusual bleeding from the uterus that differs from a normal menstrual period. This can include very heavy periods, bleeding between periods, bleeding after sex, or bleeding after menopause. It can be caused by a variety of factors, such as hormonal imbalances, infections, fibroids, or more serious conditions like cancer. It’s important to see a healthcare provider to find the cause and get appropriate treatment.
Pain Management
Pain Management is the process of relieving or controlling pain to improve a person’s quality of life. It involves various treatments depending on the cause and severity of the pain, such as medications, physical therapy, nerve blocks, psychological support, or alternative therapies like acupuncture. Pain management can be used for short-term (acute) pain or long-term (chronic) conditions and is tailored to each person’s needs.
Menopause & Hormone Therapy
Menopause is the natural stage in a woman’s life when menstrual periods stop permanently, usually occurring between ages 45 and 55. It marks the end of fertility and is caused by a drop in hormone levels, especially estrogen and progesterone. Common symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and vaginal dryness.
Hormone therapy (also called hormone replacement therapy or HRT) is a treatment used to relieve menopause symptoms by replacing the hormones the body no longer produces. It can help improve quality of life but may not be suitable for everyone, so it should be discussed with a healthcare provider.
