Ovarian cysts are fluid-filled sacs that develop on or inside an o***y. In most cases, they are harmless and temporary, often resolving on their own.

Many women will experience a cyst during their reproductive years—sometimes without any symptoms or even knowing it.

Types of ovarian cysts include:

Functional cysts – the most common type, usually linked to normal ovulation

Dermoid cysts – growths that may contain tissue such as hair or skin

Endometriomas – cysts caused by endometriosis

Cystadenomas – cysts that form on the o***y’s surface

While most cysts are not dangerous, it is important to seek medical attention if you experience persistent pelvic pain, heavy or irregular bleeding, or sudden sharp pain, as these may signal complications.

Being informed helps you recognize symptoms early and take proactive steps for your reproductive health.

Is your birth control making you feel unlike yourself?

It is more common than you think for certain birth control methods to trigger mood swings, low energy, or even worsen period pain if they are not the right fit for your body. Many people dismiss these symptoms or assume they are unrelated, but your body is telling you something.

If you feel persistently irritable, emotionally exhausted, or just “off,” it may be time to explore other options.

Birth control should work with your hormones and lifestyle—not make you feel worse.

Please talk to us about your symptoms so we can find the best way to support you! We want to help you feel like yourself again.

Your first appointment with Dr. Danny Niku typically takes place around eight weeks after the first day of your last menstrual period, once your pregnancy has been confirmed.

This initial visit is an important milestone where we review your complete health history and discuss any concerns or risk factors that may impact your pregnancy.

We will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and provide guidance on maintaining a healthy pregnancy.

Following this appointment, routine check-ups, screenings, and tests are scheduled monthly to closely monitor both your health and the baby’s development.

As you approach your due date, these visits become more frequent to ensure everything is progressing smoothly.

In addition to routine prenatal care, our team is fully equipped to manage pregnancy complications such as preeclampsia, placental or uterine abruption, ectopic pregnancy, and fetal distress.

We are committed to providing comprehensive, compassionate care throughout your pregnancy journey—drawing on our medical expertise, midwifery wisdom, and doula support to offer a holistic approach that supports the best possible outcomes for you and your baby.

Exercising during pregnancy offers a range of benefits—it reduces the risk of complications, supports a smoother postpartum recovery, improves mood and energy levels, and boosts blood flow to the baby.

It can also ease common discomforts like back pain, help maintain a healthy weight, and even make labor and delivery easier!

A well-woman exam is a yearly appointment that plays a key role in maintaining your overall health, with a specific focus on your sexual and reproductive wellbeing.

This exam provides the opportunity to address a wide range of topics, including contraceptive options, screening for sexually transmitted infections, and evaluating symptoms that may point to hormonal imbalances or other underlying conditions.

During the visit, we may also perform preventive screenings for cervical, endometrial, breast, and colorectal cancers to ensure early detection and timely intervention if needed.

These exams are not just about identifying issues—they’re also about creating a space to ask questions, discuss concerns, and build a personalized care plan that aligns with your needs and lifestyle.

Regular well-woman visits are essential for long-term health and are a proactive step in staying informed and empowered about your body.

Eating for two doesn’t mean doubling your calories... it means being intentional about what’s on your plate.

During pregnancy, your body needs more support, not more servings. The focus is on nutrient-dense foods that fuel you and help your baby grow and develop.

Key nutrients like folate, calcium, iron, DHA, and omega-3s all play a vital role in your baby’s development and your overall health.

Think whole grains, fresh fruit, protein-rich foods, and plenty of water. And if large meals feel overwhelming, mini meals can be a simple way to keep your energy steady and your stomach settled.

Looking after your sexual health means more than just avoiding STIs. It’s also about protecting yourself and your partners. Using protection, getting the HPV vaccine, staying on top of regular testing, and having honest conversations all make a difference. Your health is worth it!

Why You Should Never Do**he:

1. Disrupts Natural Balance: The va**na is self-cleaning, and douching can upset its natural pH balance, leading to an overgrowth of harmful bacteria.
2. Increases Risk of Infections: Douching is linked to a higher risk of va**nal infections like bacterial vaginosis (BV) and yeast infections.
3. Potential Long-Term Health Risks: Regular douching has been associated with an increased risk of pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), which can lead to infertility if untreated.
4. Masks Underlying Issues: Vaginal odor or unusual discharge could signal an infection or other medical condition. Douching might temporarily reduce odor but won’t treat the root cause.

What to Do Instead:

- Wash the external ge***al area (v***a) with warm water and mild, unscented soap.
- Avoid scented products like sprays or wipes in the va**nal area.
- See your OB/GYN for any unusual symptoms, such as odor, itching, or discharge.

Selecting the right prenatal vitamins is key for both men and women when preparing for pregnancy.

Here’s 5 things to prioritize when selecting your prenatal:

1. Active forms of B12 and folate – essential for those who can’t absorb folic acid well.

2. Choline – supports healthy brain development.

3. Vitamin D – important for bone health and immunity.

4. Iron – helps prevent anemia and supports healthy blood flow.

5. No unnecessary additives or preservatives – choose clean ingredients!

Always consult your doctor or midwife for guidance tailored to your needs.

Thinking about changing your birth control? Here are some signs it might be time:

1- Expiration: IUDs and Nexplanon have a lifespan—Nexplanon lasts 3-4 years, and IUDs can range from 3 to 10 years.

2- Breakthrough Bleeding: If you’re spotting between cycles or experiencing intense bleeding, it may be time to adjust your dosage.

3- Health Concerns: Issues like endometriosis, acne, or fibroids could require a different type or strength of birth control.

Everyone’s body is different, so it’s important to talk to your provider if something feels off. And don’t worry—there’s no evidence linking birth control to infertility!
