Heavy menstrual bleeding is a common experience, particularly among women at the beginning and end of their menstrual cycling years. But it doesn’t have to be this way. There are often hormonal or structural causes that can be identified and treated effectively.

It is also important for women to know that it is not normal to skip periods on a regular basis. This can be a sign of more serious health conditions and should be evaluated by an experienced gynecology provider.

At Selah, our providers are trained in advanced ultrasound and will often incorporate this into your visit in order to most fully evaluate your condition. We aim to provide you with a full range of treatment options, including natural care options that may provide relief without as many side effects. We also offer a full range of surgical options for treatment when that is appropriate to the cause, but surgery is generally not our first-line recommendation.
