Dr Pineda will provide you with evidence-based information, discuss relevant options and work with you so you are able to make informed decisions about your care. All treatment and management options remain confidential at all times.

Gynaecological treatment includes:

Contraceptive Advice

Dr Pineda will provide advice and information on the wide number of contraception options available to you and assist you in making the right choice for your lifestyle.

Cervical Screening (pap smear) test

Dr Pineda will conduct your Cervical Screening (Pap Smear) test in a safe and secure environment. Should your results show any changes to the cells of your cervix, she will undertake further investigation (typically a colposcopy) and appropriate management.

Hysterectomy

Hysterectomy involves removal of the uterus and can be done using a variety of approaches depending on the underlying health concern. Dr Pineda can help you decide which is the right option for you and conduct the procedure.

Menstrual issues

Relatively straightforward treatments exist to treat the majority of physical and emotional symptoms of menstrual disorders. Dr Pineda will accurately diagnose your condition and ensure you receive appropriate treatment to deliver the best results for you.

Menopause management

Menopause is a natural process which occurs in most women between the ages of 45 and 55 years, with average onset occurring at around 50. Symptoms vary but commonly include hot flushes, night sweats and menstrual cycle changes. Not all women require treatment but many will benefit from behavioural and lifestyle modifications such as healthier diet and regular exercise. Some symptoms may be alleviated with oestrogen Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), combined Menopausal Hormone Therapy (MHT) or Tibolone (HT) and Dr Pineda will work with you in determining the best treatment options for your needs.
