Lasers for Gynecology
Every woman, throughout her life, will have many questions about how to best manage her health. Each stage in a woman’s life brings with it specific issues, including decisions about routine care, birth control, fertility, pregnancy and menopause. Women need to feel as if they have a trusted advocate and partner to help them navigate the often confusing messages that abound about women’s health.
The use of laser technology in gynaecology has become widespread from the early 1970’s by the introduction of CO2 lasers for the treatment of cervical erosions and other colposcopy applications. Since then, many advancements in laser technology have been made, and several other types of lasers are now available, including the latest semiconductor diode lasers.
