Severe pelvic pain and unusually painful periods - clinically known as dysmenorrhea - are hallmark symptoms of endometriosis. This is a condition in which endometrial-like tissue grows outside the uterus and responds to hormonal cycling by inflaming and bleeding into the surrounding pelvic environment. At Renew Health and Wellness, Dr. Jennifer Redmond, CNP, DNP approaches endometriosis pain as a complex, multifactorial condition that demands more than simple pain management. Her evaluation begins with a thorough review of your symptom history, menstrual patterns, and prior diagnostic workup, combined with comprehensive hormone testing that assesses estrogen, progesterone, and inflammatory markers.

Because endometriosis is an estrogen-dependent condition, hormonal management is central to reducing lesion activity and the pain it generates. Dr. Jennifer Redmond, CNP, DNP works with you to develop a hormonally intelligent care plan that may include progesterone therapy to suppress endometrial growth, continuous hormonal protocols to eliminate cyclical stimulation of lesion sites, and evidence-based medications that reduce the estrogenic drive behind disease activity. Anti-inflammatory nutritional strategies are a critical adjunct to medical management, targeting the systemic inflammation that amplifies endometriosis pain. Guidance on movement, stress management, and sleep is also woven into your care plan.

For patients with complex or surgically confirmed disease, Dr. Jennifer Redmond, CNP, DNP coordinates care with specialist surgeons as needed, ensuring a truly integrated approach. Our on-site mental health therapist is available to support the significant psychological burden that chronic pelvic pain carries. At Renew Health and Wellness, endometriosis is treated as the serious, systemic condition it is - and you will receive care that reflects that seriousness.
