Gynecology

Staying healthy starts with an annual well-woman exam. These exams help women of all ages stay healthy and prevent illness and disease. The American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that girls begin annual exams at around thirteen years of age, although these exams won’t usually include a pelvic exam or Pap smear until age 21.
An annual well-woman exam ensures that you are in good health. The staff at Women’s Premier OB/GYN will review your health history, take your measurements and vitals, and examine your body to see that everything is in working order. In addition, this exam is a time for you to voice questions and concerns. Our staff are committed to providing informative discussions regarding your health that are personalized to your needs and values.
Ultrasounds are a diagnostic method used to assess the health of organs and internal structures. Pelvic ultrasounds are commonly performed to diagnose and assist in the treatment of conditions such as endometriosis, cysts, tumors, anatomic abnormalities, inflammation, and infection. In addition, ultrasounds are commonly used to monitor the health of a baby throughout pregnancy and to assist with other procedures, such as the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD). If you require an ultrasound, Women’s Premier OB/GYN will ensure that you are comfortable and informed throughout the visit. Our staff will provide detailed instructions to help you prepare for your ultrasound and will walk you through the procedure before and while it is being performed.
Balancing our hormones is a vital aspect of our overall health. As women approach menopause, our natural hormone levels can decrease, causing uncomfortable symptoms such as night sweats, hot flashes, vaginal dryness, trouble sleeping, and mood swings. In addition, changes in our hormonal balance can impact our skin and bone density. If you are experiencing severe menopausal symptoms, hormone replacement therapy can reestablish your natural hormone levels, which will curtail the negative side-effects. This personalized treatment can be adjusted to fit your needs and is available in the form of patches, pills, and gels. Rid yourself of the symptoms of menopause and restore your quality of life by talking to our staff at Women’s Premier OB/GYN today.
