Hormonal assessment

Hormones play a key role in women’s health. A full hormonal evaluation can detect imbalances in ovarian activity, the hypothalamic-pituitary axis, thyroid function, or androgens. It is especially useful for menstrual irregularities, infertility, menopausal symptoms, excessive hair growth, or premenstrual syndrome.

Ultrasound assessment

Pelvic ultrasound is an essential tool in gynecological endocrinology. It provides valuable information about the uterus, ovaries, and endometrium. Conditions such as cysts, PCOS, endometriosis, or abnormal bleeding can be diagnosed quickly, with immediate interpretation in-office.

Menstrual disorders

Heavy bleeding, irregular cycles, or absent periods may indicate hormonal imbalances or underlying conditions. Clinical evaluation combined with hormonal testing helps guide accurate treatment and monitoring.

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)

PMS often causes physical and emotional symptoms like irritability, pain, bloating, and fatigue. By assessing severity, Dr. Sarantakos can recommend tailored management — from lifestyle adjustments to hormonal or non-hormonal treatments.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

PCOS is one of the most common hormonal disorders in women. Symptoms may include irregular cycles, excessive hair growth, persistent acne, or infertility. A detailed hormonal and metabolic evaluation allows for individualized treatment strategies.

Hyperprolactinemia and galactorrhea

Excess prolactin can lead to menstrual disorders or unexpected breast discharge. Through blood tests and imaging, the cause is identified and appropriate treatment is recommended.

Hirsutism

Excessive hair growth linked to high androgen levels may arise from PCOS or adrenal gland disorders. A targeted evaluation ensures a personalized treatment plan.

Endometriosis

A frequent but underdiagnosed condition, endometriosis can cause severe pelvic pain, heavy periods, and fertility problems. A multidisciplinary approach is used, combining clinical evaluation, specialized ultrasound, medical treatment, or referral for surgery.

Recurrent pregnancy loss (miscarriage)

After two miscarriages, whether consecutive or not, a full evaluation is recommended. This includes hormonal, uterine, genetic, immunological, and coagulation-related testing. Care is always provided in a respectful and supportive environment, attentive to the emotional impact.
