This is done in the office and can be reviewed with you by your doctor prior to the procedure. Currently a secondary procedure is carried out in the laboratory on abnormal pap smears. It is a test for Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) high risk types. This test will determine if you are harboring this virus and, if so, which one it is. Depending on the results of your colposcopy, your provider may recommend a procedure to remove a small portion of the cervix called a LEEP procedure.
The thought that your body can heal itself remains one of the focal philosophies of Osteopathic Manipulative Treatment. Osteopathic Manipulation Treatment, or OMT, is a form of treatment that uses physical diagnosis and hands-on therapy to help the body restore its normal structure and function. OMT incorporates various techniques applied to the musculoskeletal system (the joints and surrounding soft tissues, muscles, their surrounding fascia, and bones) intended to relieve stress and tension in these tissues and restore the body’s normal homeostasis.
3D/4D ultrasound is a fun and exciting way to see your baby before her or she is born.

NovaSure endometrial ablation is a one-time, 5-minute procedure that gently removes the lining of the uterus—the part that causes the bleeding. The NovaSure procedure can reduce or stop bleeding altogether. Women with heavy or long-lasting periods who do not wish to have children in the future may be candidates for the NovaSure procedure. Your doctor can decide if the NovaSure procedure is right for you. If you’re sure you don’t want any children in the future, and your doctor rules out more serious causes of heavy bleeding, you may be a good candidate for the NovaSure procedure. Please see novasure.com for more information.
Hysteroscopy is a powerful way of looking into and evaluating the uterine cavity. This is particularly important since abnormalities of the cavity may prevent implantation and therefore fertility, or may interfere with the normal growth and progression of pregnancy.
Laparoscopy is an outpatient surgical procedure usually performed under general anesthesia. The procedure consists of inserting a camera like instrument through a small incision at the belly button (umbilicus) into the abdomen. Carbon dioxide is used to inflate the abdomen pushing the abdominal organs and bowel aside to allow full visualization of the pelvic organs. Small incisions are made along the lower abdomen where graspers and other fine instruments may be inserted to visualize the entire pelvic (or abdominal) cavity for diagnostic purposes.
The fallopian tubes may be inspected and dye passed through the cervix and uterus to evaluate tubal function and patency. Evidence of tubal disease, and blockage, endometriosis, pelvic adhesions and ovarian cysts are a few of the fertility related diagnoses that can be made and, under most circumstances, repaired. Photo-documentation allows for a permanent record of the findings and procedures for the patients edification and the possibility of additional consultation. At the end of the procedure, the carbon dioxide is released, deflating the abdomen, and the incisions are closed. Recovery time is usually around one hour in the recovery room and patients are discharged once they are able to urinate, tolerate fluid intake, and walk with assistance.
Hysterectomy is the surgical removal of the uterus, or womb.
Remember, no two women undergoing a hysterectomy are alike. The reasons for and the outcome of any surgical procedure depend on your age, the severity of your problem, and your general health. This article is not intended to take the place of your surgeon’s professional opinion. Rather, it is intended to help you understand the basic elements of this surgical procedure. Read this information carefully. If you have questions after reading this material, discuss them openly and honestly with your surgeon.
The ON-Q PainBuster Post-Op Pain Relief System provides continuous infusion of a local anesthetic directly into the patient’s surgical site for effective, non-narcotic post-operative pain relief for up to 5 days. The ON-Q System, a market leading post-op pain relief system, uses a small balloon-like pump that is filled with a local anesthetic medicine. The pump is attached to a catheter (tiny tube) that the doctor places near your incision site. The system is very easy to use. The pump automatically delivers the medicine at a slow flow rate. The pump may last anywhere from two to five days. The pump is completely portable, lightweight and can be attached to your gown or clothing or placed in a carrying pouch. When the infusion is complete, the catheter is removed and the pump is thrown away. Depending on your surgery, you may go home with one of these pain relief systems.
A vaccine is available to prevent the human papillomavirus (HPV) types that cause most cervical cancers as well as some cancers of the anus, vulva (area around the opening of the vagina), vagina, and oropharynx (back of throat including base of tongue and tonsils). The vaccine also prevents HPV types that cause most genital warts.
