Menopause
Menopause is a significant life transition that can bring a wide range of physical, emotional, and sexual health changes. Our menopause care is designed to provide personalized support throughout every stage of this journey.
At Takoma Park Gynecology, we understand that every woman experiences menopause differently.
Our comprehensive approach focuses on both hormonal and non-hormonal treatment options, lifestyle guidance, and emotional support to ensure you are well-cared for during this time.
At our practice, menopause care is guided by highly qualified professionals dedicated to staying at the forefront of women’s health. Both Carina and Caitlin are certified as menopause practitioners by The Menopause Society. This distinction is held by fewer than 5,000 providers worldwide.
Contraception
Contraception helps prevent unwanted pregnancy, empowering you to make informed decisions about family planning and sexual health. Along with preventing conception, some means of birth control can also provide effective protection against sexually transmitted infections (STIs).
We understand that choosing the right contraceptive method is a personal decision and offer guidance, personalized care, and support so you can choose the option that best meets your needs.

Sexual Medicine
Sexual medicine is a specialized field of practice that refers to the diagnosis and treatment of sexual health issues. It includes a broad spectrum of conditions and concerns that affect sexual function and satisfaction.
We believe that sexual health is interconnected with your overall health, relationships, and quality of life.
Knowing this, we take a biopsychosocial approach to your sexual health with empathy, expertise, and individualized attention.
Whether you're experiencing difficulty with orgasm, discomfort during intercourse, changes in sexual desire, or challenges with arousal, our providers can help you regain a fulfilling and healthy sexual life.
Chronic Vulvar Conditions
Chronic vulvar conditions are persistent or recurring issues that affect the skin and tissue of the vulva, causing discomfort, irritation, and pain. These conditions can significantly impact your quality of life, affecting your physical comfort, emotional well-being, and intimate relationships.
At Takoma Park Gynecology, we specialize in diagnosing and treating chronic vulvar conditions with compassionate, expert care. Our board-certified providers are dedicated to providing personalized treatment plans that address both the symptoms and root causes of your discomfort.

Menstrual Disorders
Menstrual disorders include a range of issues that affect the regularity, flow, and comfort levels during your menstrual cycle. These can include conditions like irregular periods, heavy bleeding, severe cramps, or absence of menstruation.
Menstrual disorders can be caused by hormonal disorders, stress, underlying medical conditions, or lifestyle factors, and they can significantly impact your quality of life.
Our board-certified providers offer personalized evaluations and tailored treatment plans to address the cause of your menstrual disorder.
Contact our team to discuss your symptoms and treatment options for managing menstrual disorders.
Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis, often referred to as a ‘silent disease,’ is a common but preventable condition that gradually weakens your bones, increasing the likelihood of fractures. Many people are unaware they have osteoporosis until they experience a fracture.
Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial in preventing fractures. Screening for osteoporosis is done with a special X-ray, called a DEXA scan.
This test can be ordered during your office visit. DEXA scans can be performed at most radiology facilities, often at the same facilities where mammograms are also offered.
With a focus on prevention, early detection, and comprehensive treatment, we can help you maintain strong, healthy bones throughout your life.
Weight Management
Weight management in women is influenced by a variety of factors beyond diet and exercise. Hormonal fluctuations, such as those during pregnancy, menopause, and menstrual cycles, can lead to weight gain and make losing weight more difficult.
We recognize the unique challenges women face in their weight loss journey. Our medically supervised solutions for weight loss are designed to support your health goals through a combination of personalized care, advanced medications, and expert guidance.
Our focus is on reducing the risk of chronic conditions caused by excess weight and enhancing your quality of life. Contact our team to design a personalized care plan for weight management.
