Adenomyosis​

Adenomyosis occurs when cells from the uterine lining grow into the muscle wall of the uterus, causing painful, heavy, or abnormal periods.

Learn more
Adnexal masses & ovarian cysts

An adnexal mass is a growth found in the region of the ovaries, fallopian tubes, or surrounding structures that can affect women of any age. Evaluation is required to determine if a mass is benign or malignant.

Learn more
Chronic pelvic pain​

Chronic pelvic pain is defined as pain below the navel lasting at least six months that disrupts daily functioning and may require treatment.

Learn more
Endometriosis

Endometriosis occurs when endometrial cells implant outside the uterus in the pelvic or abdominal cavity, where estrogen stimulates their growth. This inflammatory condition can distort pelvic anatomy through implants and adhesions.

Learn more
Ovarian remnant syndrome or residual ovarian syndrome

This condition occurs when ovarian tissue left behind from a prior surgery continues to function, potentially becoming a source of ongoing pain.

Learn more
Pelvic adhesions

Pelvic adhesions are scar tissue that forms from inflammatory processes such as endometriosis, infection, bowel disease, or prior surgery, distorting normal pelvic anatomy and mobility.

Learn more
Pelvic congestion

Pelvic congestion occurs when blood pools in the veins of the uterus and ovaries, causing pain that is often worsened by prolonged standing or intercourse and relieved by lying down.

Learn more
Uterine fibroids

Uterine fibroids, also known as leiomyomas, are typically non-cancerous tumors that grow from the uterine wall and vary in size, location, and number. Fibroids may affect up to 80% of women, with symptoms ranging from none at all to severe.

Heavy menstrual bleeding​

Heavy menstrual bleeding, also known as menorrhagia, is a common condition that ranges from mildly inconvenient to severe enough to interfere with daily activities and cause pain.

Interstitial cystitis or painful bladder syndrome

Interstitial cystitis is chronic bladder inflammation that causes pelvic pain, urgency, and urinary frequency.

Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)

PID is an infection caused by sexually transmitted bacteria that spreads to the uterus, fallopian tubes, or ovaries, leading to inflammation and potentially permanent scar tissue.

Pelvic myofascial pain

Pelvic myofascial pain results from involuntary spasms of the pelvic floor muscles, commonly experienced during intercourse or prolonged sitting.

Treatment

Schedule an appointment
Hysterectomy

A hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus, with options that include retaining or removing the cervix depending on a patient's history and anatomy. Removal of the ovaries and fallopian tubes (salpingo-oophorectomy) is a separate decision that should be discussed with your surgeon.

Learn more
Hysteroscopy

Hysteroscopy is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure using a thin telescope inserted through the vagina and cervix to visualize, diagnose, and treat conditions within the uterine cavity.

Learn more
Laparoscopy

Laparoscopy is minimally invasive abdominal surgery performed through small incisions of a half-inch or less.

Surgical risks

The pelvic organs are surrounded by the bladder, ureters, bowel, major vessels and nerves. Injury to any of these organs can occur.
