The office of Katie Ostrom, MD, features advanced technologies to diagnose and treat underlying gynecological conditions, including:

Ablation

Ablation is a procedure that uses heat energy to destroy the lining of your uterus (endometrium) and treat abnormal bleeding and endometriosis.

Cystoscopy

A cystoscopy is a procedure that helps your physician examine the lining of your bladder and your urethra, the tube that carries urine out of your body. Testing can confirm underlying bladder infections and diseases that can cause bladder dysfunction.

Hysteroscopy

Hysteroscopy is a procedure that uses a thin, lighted tube to examine the inside of your uterus and cervix closely. You may need a hysteroscopy to diagnose or treat fibroids or remove a sample of abnormal tissue to check for cancer.

Colposcopy

A colposcopy is a procedure to examine your vagina, vulva, and cervix for signs of disease. You may need this as a follow-up test if you have an abnormal Pap smear.

Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP)

LEEP is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a heated wire loop to remove abnormal cells and tissue in your lower reproductive system. You may be a candidate for LEEP to treat polyps, precancerous or cancerous tissue, genital warts, or other abnormal growths.

You can also determine if you’re a candidate for treatment with the MonaLisa Touch® laser technology. Nonsurgical laser treatments can relieve uncomfortable postpartum and menopause symptoms like vaginal dryness, painful sex, and urinary incontinence.
