Gynecology

Types of gynecology treatments

We offer a wide range of services to care for women's reproductive health, including treatments for pelvic floor disorders, uterine fibroids, polycystic ovarian disease, endometriosis and underlying infertility causes. In addition, our network of obstetrician-gynecologists (OB/GYNs) across the Houston area provide prenatal care and labor and delivery services.

Additionally, our Woman's Health clinics bring the distinguished physicians from Woman’s Hospital of Texas into the community to provide personalized, compassionate care for women close to home. We also have a team of experienced, caring midwives at HCA Houston Southeast's Women's Care Centers in East Harris County who treat a wide range of diseases and conditions and can manage well-woman care.

Gynecological surgery

Surgical procedures may be required for some conditions, including gynecologic cancers, endometriosis, pelvic pain, fibroids and abnormal bleeding. Many of our locations offer advanced minimally invasive surgical techniques, such as laparoscopic and robot-assisted technology. These techniques can provide numerous benefits, including reduced scarring, shorter hospital stays and faster recovery times.

A leader in gynecological surgery, The Woman's Hospital of Texas is a designated Center of Excellence in Minimally Invasive Gynecology (COEMIG) and Robotic Surgery (COERS).

Routine gynecology

Routine gynecological exams and screenings play an important role in a woman's overall health, as well as in the prevention of breast, cervical, ovarian and uterine cancers. Our OB/GYNs provide routine gynecological services for adults and adolescents such as well-woman's exams, contraceptive counseling and menopause management. In addition, routine gynecology services are offered at Woman's Health clinic locations throughout Houston-area communities and Women's Care Centers in East Harris County.

Urogynecology

We provide a range of treatments for women's pelvic issues that can result from certain medical conditions or childbirth, including urinary problems, difficulty with defecation and pelvic or sexual pain. Common pelvic floor disorders include pelvic organ prolapse, overactive bladder, urinary and fecal incontinence, as well as chronic urinary tract infections. These conditions can be treated through medicine, gynecological surgery or physical therapy. Along with traditional treatments, many of our hospitals also offer less invasive care options, such as pelvic floor therapy, which can also help with pelvic pain that is myofascial, organ or nerve-related.

Within our network of care, The Woman's Hospital of Texas is a Center of Excellence for Continence Care in Women.
