Women’s Health & Wellness

Care Designed Around You For Every Stage of Life

Women’s health is about so much more than pregnancy and birth.

From your menstrual years and childbearing years to perimenopause, menopause, and beyond, your body continues to change, and your healthcare should change with you.

At New Beginnings Birth Center, we believe women deserve time to talk about what is happening in their bodies, ask questions, and be actively involved in their healthcare decisions.

Our Women’s Health visits are personalized to your concerns, your needs, and your stage of life.

30-minute personalized appointment

Your appointment is designed around what YOU want to address. You do not have to have a Pap smear or breast exam unless you want or need one.

Depending on your age, health history, symptoms, and goals, your visit may include:

• Menstrual cycle concerns
• Hormone changes
• Perimenopause and menopause
• Thyroid health
• Weight and metabolic health
• Nutrition and digestive health
• Diabetes and insulin-resistance risk
• Sleep, energy and mood changes
• Sexual health and libido
• Preconception and reproductive health
• Bone, brain and cardiovascular health as you age
• Preventive health and recommended screenings
• Clinical breast exam, if desired
• Pap/cervical cancer screening, if desired or due
• Discussion of laboratory testing that may help us better understand your health

You Choose What Your Visit Looks Like

Not every woman needs the same appointment.

You may want a traditional wellness exam that includes a breast exam and Pap screening.

Or maybe you simply want 30 minutes to sit down with a provider and talk about fatigue, changing periods, unexpected weight gain, sleep problems, thyroid concerns, hormones, perimenopause, menopause or how to stay healthy as you get older.

Both are completely appropriate.

Your visit is centered around what matters to you.

Young Women

Feeling healthy today doesn’t mean preventive health isn’t important. This is a great time to understand your menstrual cycle, nutrition, metabolic health, reproductive health and the habits that can influence your health later in life.

Preconception & Childbearing Years

Pregnancy places significant demands on a woman’s body. We can help you evaluate your health before pregnancy and discuss nutrition, thyroid health, reproductive wellness and other factors that may help you prepare for the childbearing years.

Perimenopause

Periods changing? Suddenly gaining weight? Not sleeping like you used to? Feeling more irritable, anxious or simply not quite like yourself?

Perimenopause can begin years before your periods stop completely.

Hormonal changes during this stage of life can affect your cycle, sleep, energy, body composition, mood, sexual health and overall sense of well-being. You deserve more than being told that it’s simply something you have to live with.

We can talk about what you’re experiencing, evaluate your overall health and discuss whether additional testing or treatment options should be considered.

Menopause & Healthy Aging

Women’s health doesn’t stop when periods do.

As we age, protecting bone health, cardiovascular health, metabolic health and cognitive health becomes increasingly important.

Understanding your individual risk factors gives you the opportunity to be proactive rather than simply accepting changes as inevitable.

Women are unique, and so are their healthcare needs.

Hormones interact with virtually every system in the body, and those needs can change dramatically throughout a woman’s lifetime.

Our approach is centered on listening first.

We want to know:

What are you experiencing?

What are you concerned about?

What would you like to improve?

Then we work with you to determine what makes sense for your health.

Women’s wellness care isn’t only for illness.

It’s an opportunity to understand your body, identify potential concerns early, ask the questions you’ve been wanting to ask, and make informed decisions about your health.

Whether you’re 25, 35, 45, 55 or beyond, there is value in being proactive about your health.
