At Womens Health Group Chicago, we emphasize the importance of routine cervical screenings as a critical element in preventive women’s care. Regular Pap smears allow us to detect any abnormal changes in your cervix early when treatment is most effective. Our skilled and empathetic team performs these tests with minimal discomfort to ensure your wellbeing while taking every measure possible towards maintaining excellent reproductive health.
Alongside our effective cervical screening process, we offer HPV testing and vaccination – crucial steps to minimize risks associated with the Human Papillomavirus. We provide highly accurate diagnostic tests for detecting high-risk strains of HPV that are major culprits behind cervical cancer. In cases where prevention is the best approach, our clinic also offers vaccinations against common types of HPV, contributing significantly to protecting you from future infections.
Our health practitioners at Womens Health Group Chicago are proficient in performing colposcopies—another vital procedure carried out after an irregular Pap smear outcome or positive HPV test. This simple but pivotal examination facilitates the identification of problem areas on your cervix using a device called a colposcope that magnifies the view by several degrees. The goal is clear: Identify issues before they become severe problems, keeping you healthy.
For instances where precancerous cells are detected during screenings or colposcopy procedures, cryotherapy becomes an invaluable option. Cryotherapy involves freezing off selected tissues on your cervix which have potential abnormalities; thus avoiding their transformation into malignant cells down the line. WKHGC employs safe valued instruments during this procedure for optimal results delivered with dexterity rare even amongst top-tier clinics such as ours.
Occasionally after a series of examinations revealing unusual cell growth, your healthcare provider may recommend a Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP). This minor procedure is efficient in removing abnormal cells for further inspection, using a thin electrified wire loop. The approach from Womens Health Group Chicago ensures minimal tissue scarring and guarantees accurate diagnosis.
In cases where results require more attention or treatment, we’re committed to providing comprehensive follow-up consultations. Whether you’ve had routine cervical screening tests with irregular outcomes or have undergone procedures like cryotherapy, HPV vaccination or LEEP – our medical team will guide you every step of the way towards recovery and health maintenance, explaining any treatments recommended clearly and patiently. We understand that these services might delve into very sensitive and emotionally-charged territory; thus making it important for us to maintain an environment where patients from Bellwood can feel reassured about their progress post-procedure.
