Emotional Support
The MIGS team at Northwestern Medicine understands that for many women, the experience of pelvic pain, abnormal uterine bleeding, painful sexual intercourse, and other gynecological conditions can be frustrating and result in emotional distress. The decision to undergo gynecologic surgery may also be an emotional experience as women may worry about undergoing surgery and they may worry about coping with the emotional consequences of certain surgeries such as those that affect one’s fertility.
Through our work with patients as well as available research, we understand that gynecologic conditions and treatments can take an emotional toll on individuals, couples, and families. These conditions and treatments may also interfere with relationships, work, future family building, and one’s self esteem. Because of the emotional toll of pelvic pain, bleeding, and treatments for gynecologic conditions, our faculty includes a PhD clinical psychologist that can help you cope with the emotional toll treatment can cause on you, your spouse and other members of your family.
