  • Vaginal infections: three types of vaginal infections are the most common and treated in our office are:

​

Bacterial Vaginosis: also known as nonspecific vaginitis. It results from an imbalance or overgrowth of bacteria normally present in the vagina, in contrast to an infection with foreign bacteria.

​

Vaginal Yeast Infection: also known as vaginal candidiasis, or vulvovaginal candidiasis, is an infection involving a type of fungus, or yeast.

 

Vaginal discharges:  can be normal secretions from the vagina during different stages of the menstrual cycle. The consistency of the discharge can vary as your cycle progresses and is considered normal for most women of childbearing age. Normal discharge is usually clear nor white and odorless, without any other symptoms.

Increase in the amount of discharge

Different color or smell

Irritation, itchiness or burning around the vagina

​

  • Irregular bleeding

​

  • Urinary tract infections

​

  •  Menopausal Evaluation and treatment:  

Menopause is defined as the time of life when estrogen production from the ovaries stops completely. For most women this occurs around age 50, but may occur earlier or later. The menopause process (Peri menopause) can take several years, beginning when ovarian hormone production declines and fluctuates.

Many women can have no associated symptoms, while others experience moderate to severe quality of life ”issues,” including:

- Hot flashes

-Worsening insomnia

-Depression / mood changes

-Irregular uterine bleeding

-Vaginal dryness / itching

-Painful intercourse
