Women's Health Care That Listens
Too often, women are told their symptoms or lab results are “normal” — even when they don’t feel well. Fatigue, painful periods, headaches, mood changes, and anxiety may be common, but they should not be dismissed.
At Flourish Family Medicine, we partner with women to provide thoughtful, individualized care that blends conventional medicine with integrative approaches. By listening carefully and using appropriate laboratory testing, nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle guidance, we work to understand the root causes of symptoms and support long-term health and balance.
Women’s Health at Flourish Family Medicine
At Flourish Family Medicine, we provide comprehensive primary care for women across all stages of life — from adolescence through menopause and beyond. Our approach recognizes that women’s health is dynamic, interconnected, and influenced by hormones, lifestyle, mental health, and life transitions.
We aim to create a welcoming, collaborative environment where women feel heard, informed, and supported in making decisions about their health.
Preventive Care
Even when a Pap smear is not due, annual preventive exams remain essential. These visits are about much more than cervical cancer screening — they are an opportunity to assess overall health, identify changes early, and address concerns before they become more significant.
Annual preventive visits allow your provider to:
Pap smear intervals may vary based on age and screening history, but preventive care should continue every year. Regular visits help create continuity, provide a broader view of your health over time, and support proactive, personalized care.
Annual preventive visits allow your provider to:
- Review changes in symptoms, energy, mood, sleep, or stress
- Monitor weight, blood pressure, and other key health markers
- Assess hormone-related concerns and menstrual changes
- Review family history and evolving health risks
- Discuss preventive screening and lifestyle strategies

Gynecologic & Hormonal Health
Hormonal and gynecologic concerns are common — and often multifactorial. Our providers take time to understand symptoms in context and explore appropriate evaluation and treatment options.

Contraception & Family Planning

Contraceptive counseling may include discussion of:
While we do not perform IUD insertions in our office, we are able to remove existing IUDs and can coordinate referrals to gynecology providers, midwives, or other qualified clinicians for insertion when appropriate.

Preconception & Fertility Support
We believe that preconception care is most effective when it begins before challenges arise. Whether you are actively trying to conceive or simply thinking ahead, early evaluation and proactive planning can provide valuable insight and support.
At Flourish Family Medicine, we can:
When additional evaluation is needed, we coordinate referrals for specialized testing or procedures, including:
We also provide guidance on when to consider next steps, such as referral for intrauterine insemination (IUI), in vitro fertilization (IVF), or consultation with a reproductive endocrinologist.

Perimenopause & Menopause Care
Hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause can affect nearly every system in the body — including sleep, mood, metabolism, energy, cognition, and overall quality of life. Many women are told these symptoms are “normal” or simply part of aging, even when they feel disruptive or overwhelming.
At Flourish Family Medicine, we take perimenopause and menopause seriously. We provide individualized care to help women understand what is happening in their bodies and explore treatment options that align with their symptoms, goals, and medical history.
Care may include:
Our goal is not simply symptom suppression, but helping women feel informed, supported, and confident as they move through this transition.
