What can I expect during my first visit with Dr. Masha Sachenko?

Your first visit with Dr. Sachenko will be a collaborative partnership-building session. We will review your detailed health history, discuss your health goals and concerns, and create a personalized plan for future screenings. This is a safe and confidential space to ask any questions you may have.

How often do I need a Pap smear and HPV test?

Guidelines for Pap smears and HPV tests vary based on age and risk factors, but the goal is early detection of potential cervical changes. Dr. Sachenko follows the latest evidence-based screening recommendations and will create a personalized schedule for you.

What kind of topics should I bring up during my annual wellness exam?

During your annual wellness exam, be open and proactive about discussing your menstrual cycle, sexual health, contraceptive needs, future pregnancy plans, and any changes in your breast or pelvic health. Remember, no question is off-limits; we are here to support your well-being.

I have a family history of breast or ovarian cancer. What does that mean for me?

A family history of breast or ovarian cancer is important. It may mean you need to start screenings earlier or consider genetic testing, such as for BRCA genes. Dr. Sachenko can help assess your risk and create a proactive, personalized surveillance plan.

How do I perform a breast self-exam, and how often should I do it?

Breast self-awareness, not finding specific problems, is the goal. Monthly self-exams can help you recognize changes like new lumps or skin changes. This is a valuable tool, but it's important to remember that it's a supplement to clinical breast exams and mammograms by Dr. Masha Sachenko.

Are painful periods normal?

While mild cramping can be normal, severe, debilitating pain is not. This could be a sign of an underlying condition like endometriosis or fibroids. Please schedule a consultation with Dr. Masha Sachenko so you don't have to suffer in silence.

What are uterine fibroids and should I be concerned?

Uterine fibroids are very common, non-cancerous growths in the uterus. They are often asymptomatic, but can sometimes cause heavy bleeding or pain. Dr. Sachenko can help monitor them and discuss treatment options if they become problematic.

What's the difference between perimenopause and menopause?

Perimenopause is the transitional period leading up to menopause, often characterized by irregular periods and early symptoms. Menopause is the point when periods have stopped for 12 consecutive months. Dr. Sachenko provides guidance through both stages.
