Posted on by Kimberly Wright

Aging is an inevitable part of life, but maintaining health and minimizing issues can make the process smoother. Both men and women can experience significant challenges due to hormone imbalances. Even small fluctuations in hormone levels can impact your body and mind. Optimizing your hormones as you age can lead to substantial improvements in overall well-being.

Imbalance Symptoms

Symptoms of hormone imbalances in women include but are not limited to:woman getting a hot flash.

  • Fatigue
  • Irritability
  • Mood swings
  • Night sweats
  • Weight gain
  • Hot flashes
  • Decreased sex drive
  • Difficulty sleeping

These hormonal imbalance symptoms begin to affect women during menopause.

Symptoms of hormonal imbalances in men include:

  • Body fat in the waist
  • Low sex drive

It is believed low testosterone causes most of these symptoms.

Ask The Wright Center for Women’s Health About Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Therapy

BHRT is a bioidentical way of balancing your hormones. This therapy is different from traditional HRT as it comes in the form of subcutaneous pellets. As little as two per year can alter your symptoms and provide relief.

Each dose is customized for you containing bioidentical estrogen or testosterone. Four million pellets have been inserted by certified providers like Dr. Wright at the Wright Center for Women’s Health since its inception in 2012.

How Hormone Replacement Therapy Benefits Women

Decrease In Menopausal Symptoms
Say goodbye to hot flashes, night sweats, a reduced libido, vaginal dryness, and other symptoms of menopause.

A Stabilized Mood
Irritability and mood swings will virtually disappear when your hormones are in balance. Enjoy a more normal emotional life.

Increase In Bone Density
When you lose certain hormones, your bone health suffers. You will reduce the chance of developing osteoporosis and fractures after menopause with optimized hormonal balance.

Heart Health And Better Sleep
Hormonal balance decreases the risk of heart disease as well as helping you find more restful sleep.

How Hormone Replacement Therapy Benefits Men

Having balanced testosterone restores energy, mood, and a feeling of well-being.

Weight Control
With balanced hormones, men can regain control of their weight.

Muscle Mass And Strength

Fibroids: Myths vs Facts

Posted on by Kimberly Wright

There are many misconceptions about fibroids making it difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. Let’s start with the facts. One half of American women will develop fibroids by age 50. You are 3 times more likely to develop fibroids if your mother or grandmother had them. African American women are 3 times more likely to get them versus Caucasian women. Now let’s debunk myths you may have heard.

MYTH: Fibroids increase the likelihood of developing cancer

This is a myth and totally false.

Because fibroids are usually described as tumors, many people think they are cancerous or precancerous tumors. They are actually benign tumors. In fact, less than 1 in 1000 fibroids ever develop into cancer.

MYTH: If you have fibroids you will have heavy and painful periods

This is not true for all women.

Some women will have symptoms that include painful heavy periods, but other women can have fibroids with no symptoms at all. Some symptoms can overlap with other types of conditions, so if you have backaches, constipation, or painful intercourse, visit the Wright Center for Women’s Health for a full evaluation in Naperville.

MYTH: Women with fibroids are infertile

Yes, this is partially true.

A woman with fibroids may find it difficult to conceive and carry a baby to term, however NOT ALL fibroids affect fertility. Many women can carry a baby to full term and still have fibroids.

It depends on the size, location, and number of fibroids. If they block the entrance to the uterus or are where the baby needs to develop, this can affect pregnancy. Visit the Wright Center for Women’s Health to determine if infertility will be a problem for you.

MYTH: If you don’t have severe symptoms, don’t worry about your fibroids

If you have no symptoms with your fibroids, there is no need for treatment or removal. It is important however, to visit the Wright Center for Women’s Health on a regular basis to track their growth or any changes.

MYTH: The treatment for fibroids is a hysterectomy

This is false, and an outdated myth.

Although many women opt for a hysterectomy, this is not the only one available to you. There are several non-surgical and less invasive procedures to remove or shrink your fibroids. Speak with a provider at the Wright Center for Women’s Health about other fibroid treatment options including myomectomy and uterine fibroid embolization.

MYTH: Fibroids disappear after menopause

This is not true.

We may wish this were true, but fibroids can increase or grow after menopause in some cases and women may need treatment.

Our EOS Quarterly

Posted on by Kimberly Wright

The Wright Center for Women’s Health has been operating on an Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) since 2019. This system gives the company the tools to systematically grow and continuously improve our processes.

This past Monday, the office was closed so that the entire team could participate in the EOS quarterly. Dr. Wright reviewed the vision, core values, core focus, and 10-year target with the team. Our staff then split into departmental meetings, where we worked together to identify their target populations and their unique abilities. With this information, the departments created measurable scorecards to be tracked weekly to help The Wright Center meet their short-term and long-term goals.

We are so excited by the progress the team has made and are looking forward to what the year holds for growth and improvement.

Have Better Orgasms With The O-Shot

Posted on by Kimberly Wright

Whether you have a low libido, or you’re looking to spice it up in the bedroom, The Wright Center For Women’s Health can help you improve your sexual satisfaction with services like the O-Shot to help you have a better orgasm.

What is the O-Shot?

The O-Shot starts with a blood draw where platelets are then separated and concentrated. The Platelet Rich Plasma contains growth factors removed from your blood and is essentially injected into an area near the clitoris and into an area of the upper vagina, which is commonly referred to as the O-Spot, an important place for sexual response.

Before the shot is given, we numb the area with a local anesthetic cream, so our guests experience little to no discomfort. The Orgasm Shot has been in women’s medicine for years, Dr. Wright is one of the few physicians specially trained and certified to perform this procedure that can help improve sexual function.

One treatment can last up to six months, but additional procedures will only improve results. We recommend this procedure to women who suffer from low libido, sexual dysfunction, urinary incontinence, or other common gynecological annoyances.

How Long Do I Have to Wait Before Having Sex

While we recommend waiting a few days before having sex again after the O-Shot, some of our guests have engaged in sexual activity the same day as the procedure. You can have sex right away, however, you likely won’t experience peak results until four weeks after the procedure.

Benefits From the O-Shot

The O-shot will help with more stronger and frequent orgasms, and provide improved lubrication for your partner. Past guests have noted that their partner has been able to thrust and penetrate deeper into their bodies. Your partner will be happier and surprised overall by your performance in the bedroom.

Schedule an appointment with The Wright Center For Women’s Health to discuss the O-Shot today!
