Osteoporosis
Constipation
Infectious Diseases
Prenatal Panel: This includes a blood count to check for anemia, blood type and antibody screen, tests for infectious diseases such as Hepatitis B, syphilis, HIV, a urine test and culture. This is usually done prior to your first visit with your doctor.
Urinary Incontinence
Many women leak small amounts of urine from time to time. Often women are hesitant to discuss this symptom with their doctor. They may believe that it is a normal part of aging and that there is no treatment. Any uncontrollable leakage of urine should be discussed with your doctor. Your doctor will perform a pelvic examination to determine if any pelvic support problems exist, a urinalysis will be done to rule out infection, and your hormone status and side effects of any medications will be evaluated. Your doctor may recommend that you undergo urodynamic testing. This testing is available at Women’s Healthcare Associates. This involves placing small catheters into the urethra and vagina and measuring the bladder pressure, bladder capacity and bladder sensation. You will be given a “bladder diary” to record how often you are emptying your bladder and how much urine it contains each time you void. In most cases, you do not have to be referred to another facility for this testing. We offer this testing through our office. Please let your doctor know if urinary incontinence is a problem for you. There are many treatments your doctor can advise, depending on the exact cause of your problem.

Endometriosis
There are many causes of pelvic pain. Pain can be caused by infection, ovarian cysts, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, bladder problems, adhesions from previous surgeries, previous trauma or abuse, even intestinal problems. Your doctor will perform a pelvic examination and probably order tests to screen for infection. A pelvic ultrasound may be performed as well. The specific treatment for the pain will depend on the cause. This may include medications or in some cases a minimally invasive procedure, or laparoscopy. Please visit with your physician if you suffer from pelvic pain.
Pelvic Pain
Pregnancy
High-risk pregnancies are those that include increased health risks for babies and mothers. There are many situations that can cause a pregnancy to be considered high-risk. Whether you have been pregnant before or are planning to become pregnant in the future, it’s important to know what a high-risk pregnancy is and how your OB/GYN can help you through it.

Hysterectomy
A hysterectomy may be considered as well. This is the surgical removal of the uterus. It is done either through a vaginal incision, abdominal incision or through a laparoscope which uses tiny incisions in the abdomen.
Laparoscopy
There are many ways to perform a hysterectomy. A hysterectomy is the removal of the uterus through an incision in the abdomen, vagina or through small incisions in the abdomen (laparoscopy). Some patients are candidates for a minimally invasive type of hysterectomy utilizing the laparoscope or the DaVinci robotic system. The type of hysterectomy performed depends on many factors. All of our physicians are trained to perform hysterectomies and will be glad to discuss the different methods.
