Primary Care
It’s often that the duties of a physician assistant (PA) are oversimplified into merely assisting doctors, when in reality, they are primary care providers in their own right, practicing under the guidance of a licensed physician. PAs are specially trained and qualified to examine, diagnose, order lab tests, and prescribe medications without a doctor on-premises. Licensed to practice in every state, they continue to improve healthcare across all settings and specialties.

Endometriosis
Are you experiencing significant pelvic pain and think you might have endometriosis ? You are not alone. Endometriosis is a common medical condition that affects up to 10% of women of childbearing age in the U.S. Not only is endometriosis painful, but it can make it difficult to become pregnant or carry a child to term.
Pelvic Pain
The pain you experience may come and go suddenly and intensely ( acute pelvic pain ) – or it may develop gradually and become more persistent over time ( chronic pelvic pain ). Pelvic pain may be sharp, dull, or felt as a sensation of pressure, heaviness, aching, or discomfort in your lower abdomen. It can occur occasionally or constantly. Sometimes, pelvic pain only occurs with certain activities, such as during sexual intercourse, urination, bowel movements, or menstruation.
Pregnancy
Whether you're a first-time mom or on your second set of twins, learning that you may be at high-risk for complications during pregnancy isn’t something that’s easy to hear. A high-risk pregnancy means the health of the mother or her baby may be at an increased risk before, during, or after delivery. This can result from chronic illness or pre-existing health conditions and can even develop in the middle of a pregnancy that started off under normal conditions.
Labor and Delivery
For most women, planned or even unplanned pregnancies can make you feel wonderfully excited to bring a new life into this world. Even with twinges of anxiety or concerns that you may not be fully prepared, it typically dulls in comparison to the happiness a new baby can bring. After waiting a long time to meet your new little person, you can be thrown for a loop in the form of postpartum depression (PPD). Postpartum refers to the period of time directly following childbirth.

Ovarian Cancer
Lowered risks – Breastfeeding provides protection against depression, breast cancer, ovarian cancer, type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and other long-term issues.
Cervical Cancer
Cervical cancer used to be the No. 1 cause of cancer deaths among women – until regular Pap smears testing became a central component of women’s annual well-woman exams. Pap smears can identify precancerous cells in the cervix, so that these cells can be removed before it turns into cancer.
Colon Cancer
Hormone replacement therapy may also help reduce the risk of osteoporosis, uterine cancer, colon cancer, and heart disease – rates of which increase after menopause.
Urinary Tract Infection
Pelvic pain, pain while urinating, and cloudy-looking urine are among the common signs and symptoms of a urinary tract infection (UTI), also sometimes called a bladder infection.

Depression
Mental Health
Depression – Your mental health is always important to your overall wellbeing and a pregnancy in itself can exacerbate symptoms of depression and anxiety.
Anxiety

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Hypothyroidism
Thyroid
Certain medical conditions – such as chronic fatigue syndrome and thyroid disorders – may mimic PMS and PMDD symptoms, so your provider may want to rule out other causes of your symptoms, as well.

Ultrasound
The ultrasound technicians at Women’s HealthFirst perform imaging scans using the latest and most advanced ultrasound equipment.
MRI
If your provider notices anything suspicious, additional diagnostic testing may be recommended, such as a mammogram, ultrasound, or MRI. If findings continue to indicate possible breast cancer, a biopsy is usually needed to confirm or rule out a diagnosis of breast cancer. This type of biopsy is typically performed using a needle.
Computed Tomography
Gynecological ultrasound can confirm the presence of ovarian cysts. For more details about cyst location, number, and size, your provider may order additional diagnostic testing such as a CT scan or MRI. Your doctor may also order blood tests to check your hormone levels and to screen for ovarian cancer, depending on your risk for the disease.
Chemotherapy

Vasectomy
It is important to note that most birth control methods do not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). So, if you are having sex with multiple partners, or do not trust your partner, you may want to consider using a condom in addition to whatever birth control method you prefer.
Hysterectomy
If the cysts are large, a more traditional type of surgery, called a laparotomy, may be performed. In the event ovarian cysts are cancerous, treatment may include a hysterectomy that also removes the ovaries and fallopian tubes.
Endometrial Ablation
Myomectomy, the surgical removal of fibroids, is often the treatment of choice when surgery is recommended. That is because this procedure can pinpoint and remove the bothersome fibroids while preserving healthy surrounding tissue in the uterus, which may allow a woman to become pregnant in the future. In severe cases, your doctor may suggest endometrial ablation or a hysterectomy when a future pregnancy isn’t desired.
Laparoscopy
Surgery may be needed to reposition the prolapsed organ. There are numerous ways to approach a pelvic organ prolapse surgery, including minimally invasive methods such as vaginal entry, via laparoscopy, or using robotic assistance. What type of surgery is right for you will depend on the organ involved, and the extent of the prolapse and your symptoms, if any.

Skin Cancer
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women worldwide. In the U.S., it is second only to skin cancer. When discovered early enough, the prognosis is usually pretty good for women diagnosed with breast cancer. However, when not discovered until its later stages, breast cancer can be deadly. Nearly 50,000 women are expected to die from it each year.
Cyst
Eczema
Lowered risks – Exclusive breastfeeding protects against diseases like diabetes, cancer & lowers risk of asthma, leukemia, sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), eczema, respiratory infections, and diarrhea.
Fungus
Yeast infections are perhaps the most well-known type of vaginal infection. Yeast infections affect more than 75% of women at least once in their life. This type of infection occurs at the opening of the vagina and is caused by a fungus called Candida albicans, or C. albicans. While this type of fungus exists naturally in the vagina, too much of it can lead to a vaginal infection. Yeast can multiply due to stress, pregnancy, and the use of antibiotics or birth control pills.
Lesions
Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) may cause lesions to develop on the vulva. The STIs that can cause rashes, sores, or warts to appear in the genital region include...
Rashes

Physical Therapists

Physical Therapy
The most-often recommended therapy for women diagnosed with pelvic organ prolapse is pelvic floor exercises, including biofeedback and Kegel exercises, which involve contracting and relaxing the muscles. Physical therapy to strengthen your core may also be recommended.
