Even though uterine cancer isn’t common, it’s crucial to diagnose and treat it as soon as possible. Because this type of cancer presents with very clear signs and symptoms, it’s possible to detect it early, and early detection supports more positive treatment outcomes. Abnormal vaginal bleeding is an early sign of uterine cancer. This includes prolonged or heavy periods, bleeding after menopause, or bleeding in between your periods.

Many women who develop uterine polyps have no idea they have this condition, yet these abnormal growths are very common.

While this condition is often asymptomatic, you could also experience heavy bleeding, bleeding between periods, and infertility. So, what’s the difference between fibroids and uterine polyps?

Uterine fibroids are benign tumors, and they are a very common uterine disease. Fibroids may also be called nodules or cysts, and may vary in size and appearance. However, they are always solid because they are made of fibromuscular tissue, and they can cause a host of symptoms. Fibroids can develop inside the uterus or even outside the uterus into the abdomen. So what makes fibroids develop in the first place?

Hormone replacement therapy can promote vaginal bleeding after menopause. So, is progesterone necessary as a part of HRT? It is essential to take progesterone to balance levels of estrogen, much like the way our bodies naturally would. So how often and how long is progesterone required? For some patients, they will need to take it every day—especially those with a medical reason to avoid getting their period. Studies have shown that it is safe to use daily.

As you approach menopause, you may be considering hormone replacement therapy. Knowing what to expect can help you make the most informed decision possible. For example, if you are on HRT and are taking progesterone, you may experience vaginal bleeding. Generally, there is a lack of options for exactly how you can take progesterone as a patient.

Why do doctors recommend birth control pills for hormonal imbalance in women? This is one of the many questions I hear from my female patients over and over again. To answer this question, it helps to understand why women bleed monthly. The answer comes down to estrogen and progesterone. Estrogen promotes growth of the uterine lining. Then, around day 14, you ovulate, and progesterone fortifies this lining. Without estrogen, your period would be light. With a little bit of estrogen, you may have

Our current healthcare system in America is leading to serious burnout among physicians. Why? Because demand is high and the pay is very little. Respect and satisfaction among doctors is low—even for those who perform crucial surgeries. As a patient, you will pay more to replace your car transmission than what your doctor gets paid for a bypass surgery. This is an indicator of where the values in our society lie.

We’re continuing our conversation about the American healthcare system in this week’s episode. It’s important to recognize that the Affordable Healthcare Act advertised simplicity in our system, but in reality, the changes made fueled a huge rise in premium costs.

Have you ever thought about how the healthcare system in the USA operates? The American healthcare system isn’t designed to cover you or support you. At the end of the day, these healthcare entities are a business, and therefore they exist to be profitable, not to put your best interests first. When you buy insurance, you’re signing a contract that will only cover certain aspects of your care.

How important is it to have wellness doctors, and what does that even really mean? One way to think of this is a doctor who focuses on being well as opposed to combating symptoms and illness. This is really the art of keeping someone healthy versus the art of fighting disease, which are actually quite distinct. A wealth of knowledge is required to help one maintain harmony in a patient's health. That’s why it would be difficult to be both a doctor who treats illnesses as well as an expert in
