• Endometriosis
  Endometriosis is a condition in which the cells that line the inside of the uterus (the endometrium) grow outside of the uterus. No one knows the exact mechanism as to why this happens in some women, although there are several popular theories. These growths, or implants, most often appear in the pelvis, around or behind the ovaries, behind the uterus and on the ligaments that support it, or even on the bowel or bladder. Some of these implants are tiny, and some can grow into large cysts, or endometriomas.

There are brochures explaining certain tests and/or procedures that we may recommend at some point during your pregnancy. It is crucial that you read this information and apply it when necessary. Also please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have. Information on Childbirth classes in addition to Breastfeeding classes is also available from the hospital. It is recommended that you attend if this is your first pregnancy or if it has been an extended period of time since your previous pregnancy, if you so desire.

Internists

• Urology
  Dr. Behne is affiliated with Memorial Hermann, The Woodlands Hospital. His areas of surgical expertise include minimally invasive surgery, gynecological urology and pelvic floor reconstruction, pelvic organ prolapse and vaginal reconstruction. He also practices high risk obstetrics, and is particularly interested in genetics and prenatal diagnosis.
• Cervical Cancer
  Many people who are infected with HPV do not even know they have it. Most people with HPV do not develop symptoms or health problems from it. In 90% of cases, the body’s immune system clears HPV naturally within two years. Certain high-risk HPV types can cause cervical cancer. Therefore it is important for all women to get regular cervical cancer screening, which can include a pap smear as well as HPV testing.Vaccines are available to help protect against HPV.

Endocrinologist

• Diabetes Care

Radiologist

• Ultrasound
  Ultrasounds are not scheduled routinely, but when medically indicated as recommended by the National Institute of Health and The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. The decision will rest with your physician on whether or not an ultrasound will be necessary. Maximum of 2 visitors/observers. All children should be strictly supervised and any child under the age of 10 needs to be accompanied by another adult. Ultrasounds should not be considered a guarantee that no abnormality is present.  There is no guarantee that gender is always correctly diagnosed either, as visualization is sometimes difficult. While we do not offer 3D/4D ultrasounds, as the are not medical services, we have information for centers that we refer to for these services if desires.
• MRI
  Symptomatic fibroids can cause heavy or irregular menstrual bleeding, painful periods, pelvic pain, painful intercourse, pelvic pressure, infertility or urinary problems. They are often diagnosed during a pelvic exam, as well as with the help of imaging such as a pelvic ultrasound or MRI.
• X-Rays

Surgeons

• Minimally Invasive Surgery
  Dr. Berryhill practices full spectrum obstetrics and gynecology. He specializes in minimally invasive surgery, utilizing the da Vinci robot as well as traditional laparoscopy to treat heavy menstrual bleeding, endometriosis, and fibroids. He also manages high risk obstetrical patients, including pregnancies complicated by high blood pressure, diabetes, and growth restriction.
• Robotic Surgery
  Dr. Giannotti is certified to perform robotic surgery using the DaVinci Robotic Surgical System for both exploratory surgery as well as definitive surgery such as hysterectomy. This minimally invasive surgical technique allows patients to return to normal daily activity much more quickly than traditional methods. Utilizing DaVinci "Firefly" technology has also allowed him to evaluate and treat endometriosis more thoroughly than traditional laparoscopic methods have been able to in the past.
• Hysterectomy
  Endometrial ablation may be an alternative to hysterectomy for some women. If heavy and/or prolonged menstrual bleeding is interfering with your health, well-being, or quality of life, this procedure may be recommended by your doctor. Unlike hysterectomy, this procedure is performed in an outpatient facility or “Same Day Surgery” under light anesthesia. The patients are usually in and out in 4-5 hours. Most patients have little or no pain and can return to work the next day. The goal of this operation is to reduce or eliminate the patient’s abnormal menstrual pattern. In general, 40-60% of the patients will stop having menstrual periods. In another 35%, one or two days of light menstrual flow will occur. For reasons that are unclear, the procedure will not help 5-10% of the patients and hysterectomy may ultimately be necessary.
• Endometrial Ablation
  Though this procedure is not meant to replace a sterilization operation, most patients will be unable to become pregnant. To be sure that pregnancy will not occur in the future, a sterilization operation can be performed at the same time as the endometrial ablation. This operation is not a hysterectomy. Only the lining of the uterus is destroyed. You will still need yearly exams and pap smears. Because the uterus remains, the chance of uterine diseases (e.g., fibroid tumors) is still present.
• Laparoscopy
  Treatment depends on the size, location, and number of fibroids present.Sometimes medication can control symptoms, but fibroids are one of the leading indications for hysterectomy, which is the definitive treatment of this condition. For patients desiring fertility, other surgical options may be available including myomectomy (removal of one or several fibroids) while preserving the uterus, which can often times be accomplished by a minimally invasive technique such as laparoscopy or hysteroscopy.
