Healthcare for women, by women
Our Care Philosophy
At Lotus Center for Women, we slow down, listen closely, and treat the whole person—not just isolated symptoms.
We are a team of female health providers specializing in women’s sexual health and menopause care in Chattanooga, Tennesse. We treat conditions such as menopause, perimenopause, sexual wellness, and other chronic gynecologic conditions that can greatly impact a woman’s quality of life. These aren’t five-minute topics, and we don’t believe in five-minute appointments.
Conditions We Treat
-
Hormonal transitions can bring changes in mood, sleep, cognition, energy, and more. We take a comprehensive approach to peri-menopause and menopause care, looking at how your symptoms affect your day-to-day life and helping you understand what’s happening and why. You’ll never be told it’s “just aging.” We’re here to help you feel like yourself again.
-
If the days or weeks before your period bring on debilitating mood symptoms, you may be experiencing PMDD. It’s more than PMS—and it deserves real treatment. We help identify patterns and work with you to find personalized options for the relief you deserve.
-
GSM can cause vaginal dryness, irritation, burning, and pain during intimacy, as well as urinary frequency or infections. These symptoms are common during menopause, but they’re not something you have to silently accept. We offer sensitive evaluation and care that prioritizes your comfort, function, and confidence.
-
Low desire isn’t “just in your head.” It can be caused by hormonal shifts, pain, stress, or a combination of several factors outside of your control. We’ll take the time to explore your experience and develop a plan that supports your body, your mind, and your relationships.
-
Pain during or after intercourse—whether caused by muscle tension, hormonal changes, or other underlying conditions—can be isolating. We treat conditions like dyspareunia and vaginismus with gentleness and clarity, helping you move toward intimacy that feels safe and comfortable again.
-
If you struggle to feel physically or emotionally “turned on” despite wanting intimacy, you’re not alone. We approach these concerns with care and curiosity, helping identify medical, hormonal, or emotional factors that may be contributing and offering options that support connection and pleasure.
-
Your pleasure matters. Experiencing delayed or absent orgasm can be a frustrating concern for women and often stems from a variety of physical, psychological, or relational factors. We provide a safe space to talk openly and work together toward solutions for satisfying and fulfilling sexual experiences.
-
Vulvar pain—especially burning, cutting, or stinging at the vaginal opening—can make intimacy, exercise, or even sitting unbearable. We offer thorough evaluation and care that centers your comfort and helps you reclaim your sense of ease in your body.
-
When the muscles of the pelvic floor are too tight, too weak, or uncoordinated, they can cause symptoms ranging from urinary incontinence to painful sex. We work with you to identify signs of dysfunction and connect you with integrative therapies—including pelvic floor physical therapy—to help restore balance and support.
-
IC is a chronic bladder condition that can feel like recurring UTIs, with pressure, pain, and urinary frequency or urgency. It’s often misunderstood—but we understand its impact. We help manage flares, explore triggers, and reduce the daily burden this condition can cause.
-
Bacterial vaginosis and yeast infections are common—especially after antibiotics, hormonal changes, or sexual activity—but when they become frequent, they can disrupt your comfort and confidence. We take time to identify what’s truly going on and provide targeted, expert care to help break the cycle and restore balance.
-
If UTIs seem to follow intimacy or strike repeatedly, they’re more than just an inconvenience. We offer preventive strategies and ongoing support to reduce recurrence and give you peace of mind.
-
Hair thinning during menopause is a common symptom caused by hormonal changes, particularly a decline in estrogen and progesterone levels. These hormones support hair growth and maintenance, and their reduction can lead to thinner, weaker hair or hair loss (androgenic alopecia). Increased androgen levels may also contribute, causing hair follicles to shrink and produce finer hair. Other factors like stress, nutritional deficiencies, and genetics can exacerbate the issue.
