Skip to content At Womens Health Group Chicago, we fully understand that endometriosis can cause severe pain and discomfort. This is why our pain management services are designed to address all the painful symptoms of this condition – menstrual pain, pelvic pain, lower back and abdominal pain, or painful intercourse. Our team of dedicated specialists employs a holistic approach towards treatment; combining medication with innovative therapies like nerve stimulation techniques and complementary alternative remedies tailored just for you.
Hormonal therapy plays an essential role in combating endometriosis. These treatments aim at preventing ovulation thus reducing or even eliminating the progression of endometrial tissues outside of your uterus. At Womens Health Group Chicago, our broad range of hormonal therapies includes birth control pills, progesterone therapy, Gn-RH agonists & antagonists amongst others depending on each patient’s unique health needs.
When medication and hormonal therapy fail to provide relief from endometriosis symptoms, minimally invasive surgery may be recommended by our professional staff at Womens Health Group Chicago. Procedures such as laparoscopy not only confirm a diagnosis but can remove abnormally growing tissue reducing the intensity of your symptoms dramatically while improving fertility prospects among other benefits.
Endometriosis often impacts fertility but it doesn’t mean you need to abandon your dream of becoming a mother. Here at Women’s Health Group Chicago, we offer cutting-edge fertility preservation methods ensuring higher chances not only for conception but also successful pregnancy and childbirth even after battling with this disease.
Targeting one underlying factor contributing enormously to chronic pelvic pains associated with Endometrioses—disrupted muscles located around the base of your pelvis, is our special Pelvic Floor Therapy. Frequent tightening and releasing exercises under a trained Women’s Health Group Chicago physiotherapist can help you regain control over these muscles—relieving pain symptoms remarkably.
Optimizing nutrition is imperative for managing any health condition including endometriosis. This is why we offer nutritional counseling delivered by our team of qualified dieticians at Womens Health Group Chicago. We provide personalized eating plans that not only alleviate your symptoms but also improve overall well-being besides reinforcing other treatments working to eradicate this ailment from your life completely.
