The Fibroids Project was founded in 2010 to create a one stop shop for women looking for information and support on fibroids. The founder Renee Brown Small shares her vision for the organization and the upcoming speaker series. Dr. Natalya Danilyants, MD is a featured speaker on November 3, 2015, discussing LAAM, minimally invasive fibroid removal.

When a woman is diagnosed with ovarian cancer, it affects more than just her health. The long-term implications for the health of her children and grandchildren, both women and men, are equally as important to understand. Testing positive for any of the genetic mutations can put an individual at higher risk for developing cancer, but the progression of genetic testing is important to provide a complete picture.

Every woman who suffers from endometriosis experiences it differently. Extent of endometriosis doesn’t always correlate to pain. Some women with severe pain and bleeding have very little endometriosis while some women with extensive lesions may not experience much pain at all, and only discover it when trying to get pregnant. This is not true across the board, but it explains why the condition is so hard to diagnose and treat.

As women age, the changes that can happen to her body are too vast to count. Just when you think you are past the point of bleeding and pain each month, you realize you aren’t done with gynecological challenges just yet. Aging brings menopause, increased risks of GYN cancers, and the possibility that your uterus, bladder or rectum will start to sag into your vagina.

Women with large fibroids or other complex GYN conditions looking for a skilled GYN specialist in their hometown consistently hear that their only options are either an invasive open procedure or robotic procedure, requiring 6 weeks off of work to recover. LAAM at The Center for Innovative GYN Care is a hybrid uterine sparing fibroid removal surgery that takes the best of laparoscopic (faster recovery, minimal pain) & open procedures (thorough removal).

Endometriosis can affect fertility in multiple ways. Endometriosis treatment is either managed medically, surgically, or a combination of both. Since endometriosis can vary widely from patient to patient, treatment must be tailored to each individual, depending on her specific conditions and goals.

When you are confident that your treatment and recovery are managed well, you can focus on healing. Specialists in GYN oncology have extensive training in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers of the female reproductive system, including ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, and cervical cancer.
