Another day in the OR providing minimally invasive gynecologic surgery focused on patient comfort, safety, and recovery.

Today’s procedure included a Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy (TLH) for abnormal uterine bleeding, along with uterosacral ligament suspension to support the vaginal apex and cystoscopy to confirm bladder and ureteral safety at the end of surgery.

Minimally invasive surgery uses small incisions and advanced techniques that typically result in less pain, shorter hospital stays, and faster recovery compared to open surgery.

Endometriosis affects about 10% of reproductive-age women—around 190 million people worldwide.
It can cause severe pelvic pain, painful periods, pain with s*x, and difficulty getting pregnant. Many people wait 5–12 years for a diagnosis.

There’s no cure yet, but symptoms can be managed with hormonal treatments or surgery when needed. Endometriosis can also impact daily life, energy levels, and overall well-being.

If you’re experiencing severe menstrual pain, chronic pelvic pain, or trouble conceiving, talk with your healthcare provider—early recognition matters.

La salud s*xual y ginecológica es mucho más que “no tener dolor”.
Es poder vivir tu vida con comodidad, energía y confianza. En nuestra práctica, trabajamos con muchas pacientes que viven con síntomas que se han normalizado durante años—dolor menstrual severo, molestias al tener relaciones s*xuales, sangrado abundante o problemas para concebir—y que terminan descubriendo que la causa es endometriosis.

La endometriosis es una condición crónica que ocurre cuando tejido similar al del endometrio crece fuera del útero.
Afecta aproximadamente al 10% de las mujeres en edad reproductiva, y sin embargo, sigue siendo una de las enfermedades más subdiagnosticadas: muchas pacientes pasan entre 7 y 10 años buscando respuestas.

Los síntomas pueden incluir:
• Dolor pélvico crónico
• Menstruaciones incapacitantes
• Dolor con las relaciones s*xuales
• Problemas de fertilidad
• Fatiga y cambios en la calidad de vida

Aunque no existe una cura, sí existen tratamientos eficaces. El manejo puede incluir medicamentos hormonales, estrategias para el control del dolor o cirugía especializada cuando es necesario. El objetivo es mejorar tu bienestar, tu función diaria y, sobre todo, tu calidad de vida.

Si algo “no se siente normal”, no ignores tu cuerpo. El dolor no es parte obligatoria de ser mujer. Estamos aquí para escucharte, apoyarte y ayudarte a encontrar respuestas.
