Endometriosis is an often painful condition that occurs when uterus-like cells grow outside of the uterus. In some cases, it can cause extremely painful menstrual cycles and complications with fertility. To learn more about this condition or to address your personal concerns about endometriosis, book your appointment at Harbison Covenant Healthcare today.
In addition to a yearly physical or well-woman exam, you should book a yearly gynecological exam with a certified specialist.

When you were a teen, you may have been monitored yearly for the development of scoliosis. As a post-pubescent adult, you’ll likely need yearly gynecology exams for the rest of your life. No matter what stage of life you find yourself in, we’re here for you. Contact our practice today to book an appointment with a board-certified OB/GYN and learn more.
