We aim not just to alleviate your symptoms but also enhance your overall quality of life. Our diverse range of strategies may include prescription medication, physical therapy or even alternative methods like acupuncture depending on your unique situation and needs.
The hormone imbalances triggered by endometriosis often require specialized intervention. At our clinic, hormonal therapies play a pivotal role in mitigating the effects of the disease while preserving your feminine wellness. Experts at Womens Health Group Chicago are finely attuned to each patient’s specific requirements; be it oral contraceptives, progesterone therapy or GnRH agonists – we ensure all medications align perfectly with your dynamic health journey.
When conservative approaches don’t achieve adequate symptom relief, our talented surgeons step in armed with advanced minimally invasive surgical procedures designed specifically around individual patient profiles. Our mission is to help you regain control over your body without subjecting you to undue risk or prolonged recovery timeframes. Trust us to tackle both: diagnosis and treatment via laparoscopic excision surgery or laparoscopy with robotic assistance when required.

By focusing on the muscles, ligaments and tissues supporting your pelvic organs, we can help alleviate often-overlooked ramifications like discomfort during intercourse or urinary problems. Our professional therapists deploy a wide spectrum of individualized programs that are aimed to improve both functional aspects and symptoms related specifically to endometriosis.
