Our Approach to Women’s Health
We recognize that women's health is complex, nuanced, and frequently misunderstood. Our program is built on a foundation of clinical expertise, providing the validation and solutions that many women seek for hormonal shifts, fertility challenges, and menopausal transitions.
We move beyond surface-level symptoms by using advanced testing to investigate your unique health profile. This allows us to create a therapeutic plan—including integrative medicine, hormone balancing, and lifestyle support—that addresses the root cause of your concerns and restores balance from within.
At Port Moody Health, your experience on your healing journey is central to our care. We provide compassionate, expert guidance, empowering you to feel understood, in control, and confident in your body through every phase of life.
Conditions We Commonly Treat
From menstruation to menopause and everything in between, here are a few of the women’s health concerns we help address:
Arthritis
Arthritis and rheumatic diseases cause pain, swelling, and stiffness in joints and connective tissues, often leading to limited movement; they can affect people of all ages and may also involve muscles, bones, or organs.
Autoimmune
Autoimmune diseases happen when the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, causing symptoms like joint pain, skin changes, digestive issues, fatigue, or hormone imbalances, depending on which organs are affected.
Chronic Infections
Chronic infections are long-lasting illnesses that can cause ongoing fatigue, joint or muscle pain, sleep problems, brain fog, and recurring infections, often due to the immune system’s prolonged response to a persistent pathogen.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis is when tissue similar to the uterine lining grows outside the uterus, often causing pelvic pain, painful periods, pain during sex, heavy or irregular bleeding, bowel or bladder issues, fatigue, and sometimes fertility challenges.
Fibroids (Uterine)
Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths in the uterus that may cause heavy periods, pelvic pain or pressure, frequent urination, constipation, or a feeling of fullness in the abdomen, though many people have no symptoms.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is a long-term condition causing widespread pain, fatigue, sleep problems, brain fog, headaches, digestive issues, and increased sensitivity to touch, light, or noise, often affecting daily life and mood.
GERD – Acid Reflux
Acid reflux or GERD is when stomach acid flows back into the esophagus, causing heartburn, chest discomfort, regurgitation, sore throat, cough, trouble swallowing, and a sour or bitter taste in the mouth.
Hair Loss
Hair loss is when hair thins or falls out more than usual, often due to genetics, aging, hormonal changes, medical conditions, stress, certain medications, poor nutrition, or damaging hair practices. Common symptoms include noticeable thinning or bald patches.
Hormonal Imbalances & Testing
Hormonal imbalances can cause symptoms like weight changes, fatigue, mood swings, sleep problems, skin and hair changes, digestive issues, irregular periods, temperature sensitivity, and changes in heart rate or sex drive.
H. Pylori
H. pylori is a bacteria that can cause stomach inflammation or ulcers, leading to symptoms like abdominal pain, nausea, loss of appetite, frequent burping, and, in severe cases, black stools or blood in vomit.
Leaky Gut
Leaky gut, or intestinal hyperpermeability, is when the gut lining becomes more porous, allowing unwanted substances into the bloodstream. This can cause bloating, gas, abdominal pain, fatigue, headaches, joint pain, and skin issues.
ME/CFS – Chronic Fatigue
Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) causes severe, long-lasting fatigue, unrefreshing sleep, “brain fog,” and dizziness when upright, with symptoms worsening after activity and often including pain, sore throat, and headaches.
Neuropathy
Peripheral neuropathy is nerve damage that can cause numbness, tingling, burning pain, or sensitivity to touch—often in the feet or hands—making it harder to feel sensations or notice injuries.
PCOS
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal condition that can cause irregular periods, excess hair growth, acne, weight gain, thinning hair, and fertility issues, and may increase the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and sleep problems.
Pelvic Floor
Pelvic floor dysfunction means the muscles supporting the bladder and bowel aren’t working properly, leading to symptoms like constipation, urine or stool leakage, frequent urination, and pelvic or sexual pain.
Peri & Menopause – BHRT
Perimenopause is the transition before menopause when hormone changes can cause irregular periods, hot flashes, sleep problems, mood shifts, vaginal dryness, and other symptoms affecting daily life.
SIBO
Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO) is a digestive condition where excess bacteria in the small intestine cause symptoms like bloating, abdominal pain, gas, diarrhea, constipation, fatigue, and sometimes weight loss or nutrient deficiencies.
Thyroid Imbalance
Thyroid imbalances can cause symptoms like fatigue, weight changes, mood shifts, and temperature sensitivity; other thyroid issues may lead to neck swelling, hoarseness, or trouble swallowing.
Urogenital Health – UTI
Urogenital health issues can cause frequent or urgent urination, pain or burning when urinating, blood in the urine, pelvic pain, changes in urine appearance or smell, difficulty emptying the bladder, and discomfort during sex.
