- ArthritisPlatelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a platelet concentrate that may help to speed up tissue healing, without serious side effects, in some medical conditions. It has been tried as treatment for diabetic foot ulcers, muscle injury, tendon injury, and in a variety of cosmetic procedures. The only condition for which there are high-quality data and clear demonstration of effectiveness is arthritis of the knee. It is also apparent from the majority of published studies that PRP therapy has minimal risk of scar tissue formation or significant bad side effects.
- Medical Weight LossAdditionally, sagging labia tissue that causes the lips to droop can also create an exaggerated outline through clothing. This can be triggered by everything from genetics to physical changes that occur over time. It’s also very common for women who never noticed camel toe before to become bothered by a visible labia outline after pregnancy. Camel toe sometimes happens when the skin in the genital area loses elasticity following significant weight loss. The cause of camel toe is less important than the fact that there is something you can do about it if it bothers you.
- Sleep DisordersWhen it stops as in menopause, it results in rapid decay of our bodies. It results in weight gain and decreased metabolism, bone loss, decrease libido and sexual function, vaginal dryness, contributes to urinary dysfunction, increase risk of heart attacks, mental fogginess, mood changes, sleep disorders, skin changes, shrinkage of the sexual organs, weakness of the muscle, and lack of energy and vigor. In short, by altering and reducing our hormone production, nature tries to get rid of us and make room for a new generation. It’s a signal that our time has run out and the end is near. In most cases, if we sit idly by we will spend the remaining portion of our lives, which can be substantial, in poor health and lack of quality.
- Constipation
- Irritable Bowel SyndromeThese pains may initially present as intermittent and with time become continuous. Advanced endometriosis, fibroids, irritable bowel syndrome, and interstitial cystitis may be some of these pains.
- Urinary Incontinence“In my practice, I treat women with urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, in which pelvic organs shift out of position. My particular area of expertise is vaginal approach and minimally invasive repair of pelvic organ prolapse, and I emphasize treatments that meet each woman’s needs. I emphasise uterine-sparing techniques for women who want to avoid having their uterus removed.

- Pelvic Pain
- PregnancyAcute pain is defined as pain that appears over a short period of time and usually presents as a warning sign that something is medically wrong and needs immediate attention. Example of such a problem is a ruptured tubal pregnancy or ovarian cyst, appendicitis, torn muscle or ligament. These problems are usually best evaluated in the emergency rooms of a hospital due to the immediate nature and possibility of an immediate requirement for treatment.
- Labor and DeliveryThe length and the shape of the labia may be due to aging, genetic, hormonal, trauma, childbirth or other external causes. The color may be also hormonal, genetic, or as a result of skin disorders.
- Bladder CancerOveractive bladder presents with symptoms of urinary urgency and frequency, sensation of incomplete bladder emptying, and multiple night time voids. These symptoms usually represent bladder muscle irritability and could be as a result of nervous system problems, kidney stones, bladder cancer, and many of other possible etiologies.

- Cervical CancerA hysterectomy is a surgical solution to many of the health problems faced by women. This surgical procedure removes a woman’s uterus in order to treat abnormal vaginal bleeding, pelvic pain, prolapse, cervical cancer, endometriosis and fibroids
- Interstitial Cystitis
- Depression
- Anxiety
- UltrasoundThe latest in ultrasound technology is at our disposal to evaluate pelvic pain, fibroids, ovarian cysts, fertility, and irregular vaginal bleeding. 3D and 4D sonography with Doppler studies can identify the location of fibroids and polyps and their viability. Also, hystero-sonography and hysterosalpingogram can be performed using 3D ultrasound and fluoroscopy, to evaluate the endometrial lining for fibroids, polyps, scar tissue, or tubal issues in fertility evaluations. We offer minimally invasive solutions to fibroid treatment such as laparoscopic myomectomy, and fibroid embolization. These techniques allow faster recovery over traditional techniques and effective resolution of the symptoms resulting from fibroids.
- MRIYour OB/GYN or healthcare provider will assess your symptoms and then carry out a pelvic exam in order to diagnose the pelvic pain. Sometimes depending on the symptoms or complexity of your pelvic pain, you might have to take additional tests such as MRI, X-rays, ultrasound, diagnostic Laparoscopy, hysteroscopy and CT scan.
- X-Rays
- Computed Tomography
- Minimally Invasive SurgeryMinimally Invasive surgery refers to a number of techniques that enable doctors to perform surgery without causing a lot of damage to the patient’s body. Minimally invasive surgery makes small incisions through which surgery is performed by hand or by using special equipment, while as traditional surgery will leave a very noticeable incision on the body of a patient. Quick recovery and less scaring are the main advantages to having minimally invasive surgery as it allows the patient to get back to their regular schedule without much inconvenience.
- HysterectomyMore that 200,000 hysterectomies are performed each year to relieve symptoms of fibroids. The majority of these women can avoid a hysterectomy in our centers. We proudly have the lowest hysterectomy rates for treatment of fibroid tumors. Every day we offer women that have been told they need hysterectomy minimally invasive options to spare their organs.
- Endometrial AblationEndometrial Ablation helps women with heavy or prolonged bleeding during periods. This procedure is usually recommended when the prescribed medicine does not work. The Endometrial Ablation procedure removes the lining of the uterus which is also called the endometrium.
- LaparoscopyOther procedures include myomectomy via laparoscopy or hysteroscopy. The former requires surgeons to cut and remove fibroids through a small incision near the public line. Meanwhile, the latter involves inserting a telescopic instrument through the cervix. The right technique for your case will depend on the size and location of the fibroids.

- Cyst
- LesionsIt’s not necessary to experience all symptoms to be diagnosed with vaginal atrophy. In many cases, women only experience the symptoms of burning, dryness, and itching. A pelvic exam is generally needed to confirm a diagnosis of vaginal atrophy. During your examination, your healthcare provider will be looking for signs of swelling, redness, vulvar lesions, lacerations near the vaginal opening, sparse pubic hair, narrowing of the vagina, and other telltale signs that you’re in a state of decreasing estrogen levels. Urine and fluid analysis may also be used.
- Rashes
- Physical TherapyTreatment for pelvic pain will be determined by what is causing it after careful evaluation. There are various treatment options available depending on the cause of the pelvic pain and these treatments include pain relievers, surgical procedures, hormone therapies, nutritional and physical therapy.
