Obstetrics & Gynecology

Puberty and young adulthood are full of changes, both physical and emotional. We are here to help you navigate them in the best possible health. Our services for adolescents and young adults include:

Annual Gynecological Exams

Annual pelvic exams from your OB/GYN are important at this stage. They are your number one prevention tool for the early detection of gynecological diseases and conditions. Exams allow you to become actively involved in your healthcare. You are welcome to ask your physician about any changes your body is going through during puberty or to discuss any private issues.

Vaccinations & Prevention

Adolescence is a key time for young women to receive vital vaccines. These vaccines prevent sexual diseases and other gynecological issues that may occur later in life. Screening and tests can also potentially identify a health issue in its early stages.

Annual Gynecological Exams

At IU Health, we believe in the importance of annual exams from your OB/GYN provider. These exams check for cancer and other abnormalities. Depending on your health history, they may include a pap test every three to five years.

Women should also increase vitamin uptake as necessary (such as prenatal vitamins) and seek counseling or education for optimum health (such as weight control, exercise, and smoking cessation).

Fertility Services

Our fertility and endocrinology specialists can help determine what factors may be causing fertility issues.

The causes of infertility or secondary infertility can often be determined through diagnostic testing. These could include blood tests, imaging tests, or laparoscopic procedures. Other times, it is much more difficult to find the cause of infertility.

Regardless of your situation, our fertility specialists and reproductive endocrinologists will be with you through the entire process. At IU Health, we create a personalized approach for your reproductive needs.

From menopause through your golden years, you need regular feminine healthcare, including:

Annual Gynecological Exams

During and after menopause, it is vital to maintain regular annual exams to maintain overall health. Annual exams help diagnose and treat conditions including heart disease and certain cancers that occur more often with advanced age.

IU Health continues to offer comprehensive OB/GYN services and treatments in your aging years.

Urogynecology

Changes over time, related to events such as childbirth and menopause, can cause issues known as pelvic floor disorders. These common disorders affect many women. It is important to know they should be treated and not just tolerated.

At IU Health, our fellowship-trained urogynecologists offer comprehensive urogynecology services. These include surgical and non-surgical treatments for pelvic floor relaxation and urinary issues. We also have physicians who are board-certified in pelvic floor reconstruction.
