Adolescent women can establish a health care routine and learn the basics about their bodies, be educated on contraception and safe sex practices, and learn about possible menstrual problems. The practice also provides care for the concerns of women in their 20s and 30s and performs services, such as STD screenings, breast exams, and preconception counseling. As you ease into perimenopause, the years prior to the cessation of your menstrual cycle, the doctors can help you manage symptoms, such as hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness.

When you’ve gone a full year without a period, you’re in menopause, which increases your risk of certain health complications, including osteoporosis and heart disease. The doctors educate you about ways to prevent these chronic issues, and they continue to monitor your gynecologic health throughout your lifespan.
