INFERTILITY

Infertility affects about 15% of couples due to a variety of reasons. If you have been trying to conceive for 6-12 months without becoming pregnant, an evaluation with an OB/GYN can be helpful in figuring out the cause.

MENOPAUSE

Defined as a full year without a period, menopause marks a major change that can often bring unwanted symptoms. Gynecological care can help guide women through this stage of life.

PRECONCEPTION COUNSELING

Even before a positive pregnancy test, is important for patients to speak with a gynecologist to identify any factors that may affect their pregnancy. Carnegie Women’s Health’s gynecologists offer testing and health assessments to help prepare for a healthy and successful pregnancy.

SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS (STIS)

Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) are infections passed from one person to another during sex. Carnegie Women’s Health offers testing and treatment for STIs.

VAGINAL DISCHARGE

Most vaginal discharge is healthy and normal, but if patient’s notice something outside of what’s typical for them, they may seek answers and treatment from their gynecologist.

Preventative Care

Maintaining your gynecological health is important, and preventative care is crucial for addressing conditions before they occur. Our team of doctors offers several modern testing techniques to detect and screen for health concerns to keep you healthy. Our preventative care options include:

ABNORMAL PAP RESULT

Pap smear tests are a vital part of preventative care. Our team will develop a plan for next steps in the case of finding abnormal cells in the cervix tissue following a pap test.

CANCER SCREENING

Several types of cancer, including breast, gynecological, and colorectal, have inherited genetic risk factors. Testing is available for malignant tumors in the breasts, cervix, or ovaries, as well as genetic cancer screening to determine whether you carry genetic risk factors for developing certain types of cancer.

COLPOSCOPY

Usually performed after an abnormal pap result, a colposcopy offers a closer examination of the cells of the cervix, vagina, and vulva for signs of cancer. We offer colposcopy to ensure the health of our patients.

PREVENTIVE CARE

An effective way to keep healthy is to prevent many conditions from developing in the first place. Carnegie Women’s Health offers testing and counseling for a variety of conditions and risk factors, including HPV, HIV, gestational diabetes, and domestic violence.

ULTRASOUND

Ultrasound imaging technology has a wide range of uses in gynecological care, offering a closer look at the organs of the pelvic area. Ultrasound testing is  used for more than just pregnancy and is helpful when addressing various medical conditions.

Pelvic Health

The pelvic area represents a complex system consisting of many organs and supportive tissues with a variety of purposes. Problems in the pelvic area can negatively impact your overall health in a multitude of ways, so it’s important to receive quality care to ensure these issues don’t interfere with your overall quality of life. The gynecological team at Carnegie Women’s Health offers care in:

PROLAPSE

Prolapse is defined as laxity in the muscles that support the pelvic organs, causing them to press on or out of the vagina.
