[Endometrial Adhesions] If Your Menstrual Flow Has Decreased and You’re Having Trouble Getting Pregnant, Here’s What to Check First
- Endometrial adhesions refer to a condition in which the inner walls of the uterus stick together, which can affect the shape of the uterine cavity or the flow of menstrual blood.
- If your menstrual flow has noticeably decreased or stopped following a D&C after a miscarriage, uterine surgery, or an intrauterine infection, or if you are experiencing recurrent miscarriages or difficulty conceiving, you should consult an OB/GYN to determine whether an evaluation of the uterine cavity is necessary.
- It can be concerning if your menstrual flow decreases significantly compared to before after a miscarriage or childbirth, or if you experience lower abdominal pain around your expected period but have almost no bleeding.

[Cervicitis] If You Experience Recurring Vaginal Discharge and Pain During Intercourse, Here’s What to Check First
- When seeking consultation for cervical inflammation in Ulsan, the first step is to avoid assuming that all cases of itching or discharge are caused by the same type of vaginitis.
- Recurring vulvar itching, burning, odor, and discharge can have various causes, including candidal vaginitis, bacterial vaginosis, sexually transmitted infections, skin conditions, and dryness associated with perimenopause.
- Just because you’ve experienced symptoms of vaginitis once doesn’t mean it was caused by poor lifestyle habits.

[HPV Positive] HPV Positive Finding, What to Check First in Cervical Screening
- An HPV-positive result does not mean you have cervical cancer.
- However, you need to confirm with an OB-GYN which HPV type was detected, whether Pap smear (cervical cytology) results were accompanied, and when a follow-up test is needed compared to previous results.
- When seeing the phrase 'High-risk HPV positive' on a health screening report, many people feel great anxiety.

[Endometriosis and Pregnancy] How to Continue Preparing for Pregnancy Even with Endometriosis
- Ulsan When preparing for pregnancy with endometriosis, it is important not to jump to conclusions about your chances of conceiving based solely on the severity of your pain or your diagnosis.
- We need to review the location and extent of endometriosis, ovarian reserve, age, ovulation and semen analysis results, history of pain and surgery, and your current pregnancy plans.
- After receiving a diagnosis of endometriosis, patients often have a series of questions, such as, “Will it be difficult to get pregnant?”, “Should I have surgery first?”, and “Should I take a break from trying to conceive during months when the pain is severe?”

[Uterine Disorders] If you’re wondering how to manage cervical dysplasia in Ulsan after testing positive for the HPV virus, it’s best to visit us as soon as possible.
- – Since symptoms are often mild, it is recommended to undergo a national health screening once every two years.
- – Caution is advised, as these abnormal cells may develop into cancer if they grow larger or become more deeply embedded.
- – Since this condition can affect future pregnancy plans, early treatment is crucial.

[Chronic Pelvic Pain] If chronic pelvic pain persists for a long time, it is important to examine the uterus, ovaries, and pelvic circulation together.
- Ulsan When consulting on chronic pelvic pain, the first thing to consider is not merely the fact that “the pain has persisted for a long time.”
- We need to carefully assess whether the symptoms worsen before or after your period, whether they are related to ovulation, whether they are accompanied by dyspareunia, pain during bowel movements, or urinary discomfort, and whether there is a possibility of gynecological conditions such as endometriosis, adenomyosis, or sequelae of pelvic inflammatory disease.
- If pain in the lower abdomen or pelvic area recurs for more than three months, it can significantly impact your daily life.

[Uterine Disorders] If You’ve Been Told You Have an Ovarian Cyst, Monitor Changes in Its Size and Your Menstrual Symptoms
- Ulsan When consulting about ovarian cysts, it is important to consider not only the fact that “there is a mass,” but also the type of cyst, changes in its size, the nature of the pain, changes in the menstrual cycle, and whether the patient is planning to become pregnant.
- While functional cysts may sometimes shrink on their own, endometriomas or recurrent cysts can be linked to menstrual cramps, pelvic pain, ovulation issues, and fertility, so close monitoring and proper management of your health are both necessary.
- When people hear that they have an “ovarian cyst” during a health screening or an OB/GYN ultrasound, most of them tend to worry right away.
Korean medicine
[Aftereffects of Pelvic Inflammation] If you still feel a heavy sensation in your lower abdomen after pelvic inflammation, you should address both the aftereffects and pelvic circulation.
- Ulsan During consultations regarding the aftereffects of pelvic inflammatory disease, we assess the progression of symptoms that persist even after treatment, such as a heavy sensation in the lower abdomen, lower back and pelvic pain, increased vaginal discharge, worsening menstrual cramps, pain during intercourse, and fatigue.
- If acute inflammation is suspected, a gynecological examination should be the first step; however, if test results show no significant abnormalities but discomfort persists, it is necessary to address both pelvic circulation and the body’s ability to recover.
- Pelvic inflammatory disease is a condition caused by inflammation spreading to the areas surrounding the uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries.
Korean medicine
[Endometriosis] If pain persists even after endometriosis surgery, it’s important to focus on recovery management as well
- Ulsan Post-surgery care for endometriosis cannot be viewed as “over just because the surgery is done.”
- This is because even after the lesion has been removed, symptoms such as menstrual cramps, pelvic pain, ovulation pain, fatigue, and intestinal or bladder discomfort may persist or worsen again over time.
- In addition to follow-up gynecological examinations, it is important to monitor menstrual flow, pain patterns, recovery and stamina, as well as inflammation and circulation.
