Don’t ignore what your body is telling you. Follow us for more women’s health guidance, and call us at (985) 249-7022 to book an appointment. 💙

💗 Happy Valentine’s Day from the Center for Women's Health!

There are a lot of myths around women’s bodies and s*xual health. Pain and low libido aren’t things you have to live with, and aging doesn’t mean losing connection or pleasure.

Your body deserves the love you show others. Our team is here to listen, answer questions, and support you at every stage of life.

Let's clear the confusion about breast cancer and estrogen replacement therapy.

Low-dose estrogen does not cause breast cancer, but once a diagnosis occurs, it can feed it—because breast tissue has estrogen receptors.

That’s why it is best to use an easily removable form of therapy such as a patch, spray, gel, or a vaginal ring so it can be stopped immediately if breast cancer is diagnosed.

📲 Reach out to us at (985) 249-7022. Our team is ready to answer your questions, guide your care, and help you make confident decisions about your health.

If your pain keeps getting dismissed, this test matters.

A diagnostic laparoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows us to look directly at the pelvic organs—and sometimes treat endometriosis at the same time.

Think endometriosis could be affecting you? Call our office to schedule a visit at (985) 249-7022. 💙
