Skip to content Living with endometriosis can be painful, which is why here at Womens Health Group Chicago, we prioritize pain management as a crucial part of our service. Our team of dedicated healthcare professionals have extensive experience in managing and alleviating the pain associated with endometriosis by developing personalized treatment plans for each woman. We provide both pharmacological treatments and innovative non-drug therapies designed to address chronic pelvic pain and improve overall quality of life.
Endometriosis often involves hormonal imbalances that require specialized care. With this in mind, our clinic offers effective hormonal therapeutic solutions aimed at regulating hormones and slowing the progression of the disease. Guided by cutting-edge research, these therapies are customized based on individual needs to ensure optimal outcomes while minimizing potential side effects.
At Women’s Health Group Chicago, we pride ourselves on utilizing advanced surgical methods such as minimally invasive surgery for treating endometriosis when necessary. Our highly skilled surgeons aim to offer relief from symptoms while preserving fertility using state-of-the-art technology. These surgeries not only minimize physical trauma but also reduce hospital stays and recovery times compared to traditional surgical procedures.
Understanding how pivotal fertility preservation is for women living with endometriosis, our experts work diligently toward maintaining and promoting reproductive wellbeing despite the challenges posed by this condition. From initial assessments to discuss available options, through implementing evidence-based interventions like IVF or IUI if required – we’re committed every step of the way in helping you preserve your ability to conceive.
In addition to restorative treatments, Womens Health Group Chicago provides therapeutic services such as Pelvic Floor Therapy geared towards resolving discomfort caused by tightness or weakness in pelvic floor muscles. Our physiotherapists specialize in this non-surgical approach to decrease pain, improve bladder and bowel function, and enhance sexual health.
Lastly, our approach includes nutritional counseling aimed at promoting wellness not only physically but also internally. Our dieticians understand the impact of endometriosis on overall well-being and aim to counteract these effects through personalized diet plans focusing on anti-inflammatory foods that can help manage symptoms whilst supporting general health. Partnering with us in Elk Grove Village allows you access to an unrivaled combination of care for your physical and psychological wellbeing as we effectively battle endometriosis together.
