Hot flashes, mood swings, and night sweats can make even the strongest of women feel down and out due to the symptoms of menopause. At Rodeo Drive Women’s Health Center, Dr. Rebecca Brown, Dr. Jennifer Chen, Dr. Lily Lee, Dr. Rahil Patel, Dr. Henrietta Stancz-Szeder, Dr. Karen Toubi, Dr. Kathleen Valenton, Dr. Wendy Kim Waldman, and Dr. Peter Weiss understand. And that’s why they offer a range of services that help with menopausal and perimenopausal symptom relief.
Menopause is a natural part of the aging process for women, yet its symptoms can cause a wide range of problems. While the cessation of your menstrual cycle is a normal life occurrence, your body can experience a hormone imbalance that causes more severe symptoms, including:
For some women, menopausal symptoms occur but aren’t severe enough to require intervention, yet for others, the symptoms can interfere with daily functioning. And for these women, the doctors at Rodeo Drive Women’s Health Center may have a solution.
For some women, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) may be the answer to their menopause symptoms. HRT treats women with specific hormones, mainly estrogen or progesterone, and helps to ease the symptoms they’re experiencing. The doctors at RDWHC will provide a specific treatment plan for you. This may include non-hormonal therapies as well.
Menopause can impact all sort of areas of your health, including how your bladder functions. That means certain bladder issues may be a symptom of menopause or perimenopause, including:
The team at Rodeo Drive Women’s Health Center treats bladder issues that are the results of menopause with advanced laser therapies. With the Mona Lisa Touch®, your doctor uses a minimally invasive laser treatment that stimulates your body’s natural production of collagen, boosting the health and elasticity of the vaginal area. This can help improve bladder issues by adding more support around the urethra and improving the overall health of the vulva. The doctors at RDWHC have the leading physicians in the country in use of the Mona Lisa Touch Laser. We have performed more Mona Lisa touch Lasers than anyone west of the Mississippi. We have one of the only 3 national physician trainers for this procedure.
