Abnormal Bleeding and Pain
At PFRANKMD, we understand how disruptive abnormal bleeding and pelvic pain can be to your quality of life. These symptoms are never something to ignore—they’re your body’s way of signaling that something deeper may be going on. Whether it’s heavy, irregular periods or persistent discomfort, our team takes a comprehensive approach to uncover the cause and create a personalized treatment plan that restores balance and comfort.
What Causes Abnormal Bleeding and Pelvic Pain?
There are many potential reasons for abnormal bleeding or pelvic pain. Identifying the root cause is essential to finding real relief. Common conditions include:
– Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
– Perimenopause or Menopause Transition
– Uterine Fibroids or Polyps
– Hormonal Imbalances
– Endometrial Hyperplasia
– Adenomyosis or Endometriosis
– Complications with Birth Control Devices
Why It’s Important to Seek Care
When left untreated, abnormal bleeding and pain can lead to serious complications:
– Anemia due to excessive blood loss
– Ruptured ovarian cysts causing acute pain or emergency situations
– Endometriosis progression, which can worsen over time and affect fertility
– Increased risk of uterine or endometrial cancer, especially with prolonged hormonal imbalances
Prompt evaluation and treatment can help avoid these risks and improve your long-term reproductive and general health.
Our Approach: Comprehensive Evaluation
Getting to the bottom of your symptoms starts with a full diagnostic workup. At your consultation, we may recommend:
Pelvic Ultrasound – to assess the uterus, ovaries, and surrounding structures
Bloodwork – to evaluate hormone levels, thyroid function, and detect anemia
In-office Exam – including a detailed health history and physical evaluation
Each step is performed with compassion, discretion, and your individual needs in mind.
Personalized Treatment Options
Our goal is to get you feeling like yourself again, with a treatment plan that fits your life and health goals. Depending on your diagnosis, options may include:
Hormonal Management (oral contraceptives, hormonal therapy, or menopausal care)
IUD Insertion – hormonal or non-hormonal, depending on your needs
Hysteroscopy with D&C – a minimally invasive procedure for both diagnosis and treatment
Lifestyle & Nutritional Support – especially important in PCOS management
