- Ovarian cysts
- Pelvic infections or pelvic inflammatory disease (PID)
- Pelvic prolapse
- Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)

Birth control and sexual health
There are many different kinds of birth control. No one method is best for every woman, so we work with you to decide which is right for you.
Remember, as time goes by, your birth control needs may change. What was best for you in the past may not be the optimal method for you now. Talk with us to get the up-to-date protection you need. And tell us if you’re experiencing a loss of interest in sex or if sex is becoming painful.
Breast concerns
Are you feeling pain or discomfort in your breasts? Have you felt a lump, hardening, or other change in your breast or nipple? Let us know. We will examine your breasts and talk with you about whether it’s time for a mammogram.
Bleeding and menstrual concerns
Don’t assume that heavy bleeding, long periods, irregular periods, or menstrual pain are just something you have to put up with. In many cases, these symptoms are caused by issues that respond well to medical treatment.
Incontinence
Incontinence is an embarrassing condition that can interfere with your quality of life. If you’re experiencing any kind of incontinence, including leaking urine, sudden urges to urinate, an inability to empty your bladder, or fecal incontinence, speak up. We can help.
Changes in your vaginal health
Tell us if you have vaginal discharge, vaginal dryness, pain during sex, or other changes in your vagina.
Menopausal issues
Perimenopause (the years before menopause) and menopause can bring on a variety of symptoms, including hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, decreased interest in sex, vaginal dryness, and brain fog.
Treatment, including hormone replacement therapy, can help relieve these symptoms.
At Virtuosa GYN, we use bioidentical hormone replacement rather than synthetic hormones. With bioidentical hormone therapy, you receive a hormone mix that is custom-compounded at our trusted pharmacy based on your individual testing results.
