Treatment for Endometriosis, Fibroids, and Others
Dr. Lipika Das Mukhopadhyay offers specialized care for a variety of reproductive health conditions, including endometriosis, fibroids, and other related disorders. Her approach combines thorough diagnostic evaluations with personalized treatment plans to effectively manage these conditions and improve patients’ quality of life.
Treatment for Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a chronic condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus, causing pain and potential fertility issues. Dr. Mukhopadhyay's comprehensive management plan includes medical treatments such as NSAIDs and hormonal therapies to manage pain and suppress endometrial tissue growth. For more severe cases, laparoscopic surgery is offered to excise or cauterize endometrial lesions. This minimally invasive procedure helps alleviate symptoms and improve fertility outcomes. Additionally, chronic pain management strategies and fertility preservation options are provided to address the specific needs of each patient.
Treatment for Fibroids
Uterine fibroids are benign tumors that can cause symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, pelvic pain, and reproductive issues. Dr. Mukhopadhyay offers a range of treatments based on the size, location, and severity of the fibroids. Medications such as hormonal therapies and GnRH agonists are used to manage symptoms and shrink fibroids. Minimally invasive procedures like uterine artery embolization and endometrial ablation are available for significant symptoms. In cases where fibroids cause severe complications, surgical options such as myomectomy or hysterectomy are recommended. Dr. Mukhopadhyay also provides fertility-focused treatments for women looking to conceive.
Treatment for Other Reproductive Health Conditions
Dr. Mukhopadhyay addresses various reproductive health conditions with personalized care. Chronic pelvic pain, resulting from conditions like pelvic inflammatory disease or ovarian cysts, is managed through thorough evaluations and targeted treatments. Functional ovarian cysts are monitored and treated with hormonal therapies or surgical intervention if necessary. Recurrent vaginal infections are managed with appropriate antimicrobial or antifungal treatments, along with preventive guidance. For pre-cancerous conditions like abnormal Pap smears, Dr. Mukhopadhyay offers diagnostic evaluations and treatments such as colposcopy and biopsy to prevent the progression to cervical cancer.
