The treatment of gynecologic conditions varies widely depending on the diagnosis. For instance,
hormonal therapy is commonly used to manage conditions like
endometriosis or polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Hormonal therapy can help regulate menstrual cycles and alleviate symptoms.
Surgical interventions are also prevalent in gynecology. Procedures such as
laparoscopy allow for minimally invasive surgery, often used in the treatment of ovarian cysts, endometriosis, or ectopic pregnancy. In more severe cases, a
hysterectomy may be performed to remove the uterus, often indicated in cases of cancer, fibroids, or severe endometriosis.
For infections like bacterial vaginosis or yeast infections, antibiotic or antifungal therapies are typically prescribed. These treatments aim to restore the natural balance of bacteria and yeast in the vagina.
