Mammograms are an important tool for the early diagnosis of breast cancer, which is key to successful treatment. At Craig Ranch OB/GYN, we perform mammograms in our offices, so our patients don’t have to make a second appointment elsewhere.

Laparoscopic surgery is a type of minimally-invasive surgical technique. It is characterized by multiple small incisions rather than the larger incision made for open surgeries. Laparoscopic procedures can be conducted through these tiny incisions because they involve closed observation of the surgical field. This is achieved with a small camera on the end of a thin tube.

Endometrial ablation is a surgical procedure used to treat women suffering from excessive or prolonged menstrual bleeding and who have not responded to other treatments such as medication.

Menopause is the time in a woman’s life when her menstrual period has stopped. Menopause is caused by a decrease in the ovaries’ production of the hormones estrogen and progesterone, which eventually results in the ovaries’ ceasing to produce eggs, and the end of menstruation.

FAQ

How Do You Prepare For a Gynecology Appointment?

Before your gynecology appointment, there are a few things you need to do to prepare. First, it is best not to use tampons for your appointment as you will have to remove them. Wear a pad instead, and be sure to bring an extra one. During your appointment, you will be asked various questions, such as how bad your menstrual cramps are and if you are having sex. Be honest and forthcoming with the details.

What Conditions Does Craig Ranch OB/GYN Treat?

At Craig Ranch OB/GYN, we treat a wide variety of conditions in the abdomen and pelvis, such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and rectal prolapse. We treat these conditions through laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery is a surgical procedure where small incisions are made near the abdomen, and a small camera is inserted to give the gynecologist an in-depth look at the problem.

If a woman is suffering from excessive bleeding through her menstrual cycle, we can treat it with endometrial ablation.
