Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause
Specialized gynecologic care for sexual health and menopausal transitions in Chicago
Northwestern Medicine Center for Sexual Medicine and Menopause serves patients in Chicago with focused expertise in two critical areas of women’s health. The practice staffs female physicians who understand that many patients prefer working with women clinicians on intimate health matters. This foundational commitment to patient choice shapes how the center approaches every consultation and treatment plan.
Sexual medicine and menopause management as distinct clinical focuses
Sexual dysfunction and menopausal symptoms often go unaddressed in general obstetric and gynecologic settings, yet they significantly affect quality of life. This practice treats these concerns as primary specialties rather than secondary issues. Clinicians evaluate hormonal factors, medication interactions, vascular function, and psychological components that contribute to sexual health challenges and menopausal discomfort. Treatment options span hormone therapy, non-hormonal medications, lifestyle counseling, and collaborative approaches with other specialists when needed.
The practice is part of Northwestern Medicine’s larger health system, providing access to integrated resources and referral pathways. Located in Chicago, the center welcomes new patients and established ones seeking expert evaluation in these subspecialty areas.
