In-office procedures refer to various treatments performed at the Euphrates Health and Wellness office. Unlike in-hospital procedures, in-office procedures are less invasive, need only local anesthesia or no anesthesia, and require little to no downtime.

In-office procedures also save you time and money.

Euphrates Health and Wellness performs many in-office procedures such as:

Colposcopy

A colposcopy is an in-office procedure that allows the team to examine your cervix closely. They perform this procedure following an abnormal Pap smear. 

During a colposcopy, A Provider uses a lighted microscope to evaluate your cervical tissue and look for signs of abnormalities. She may take a biopsy of any abnormal tissue and send it out to the lab for testing.

The Provider may also perform a procedure to remove the abnormal tissue during your colposcopy. 

Cryotherapy

A Provider uses a specialized cold chemical that freezes and removes the abnormal tissue in your cervix during cryotherapy. They may perform cryotherapy during your colposcopy. 

She may also perform this in-office procedure to remove genital warts. 

Loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP)

A Provider may perform A LEEP during a colposcopy, using a specialized heated wire loop to remove a layer of abnormal tissue from your cervix or vagina. 

Endometrial biopsy (EMB)

During an EMB, A Provider takes a sample of the endometrial tissue lining your uterus, then sends the tissue sample to the lab for testing. They may perform this in-office procedure to find the underlying cause of your abnormal menstrual bleeding.

Insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD)

The IUD is a long-acting reversible contraceptive (LARC) device that prevents pregnancy anywhere from 3-10 years. During the quick, in-office procedure, A Provider inserts the small T-shaped device in your uterus.

Insertion of an implant (NEXPLANON)

NEXPLANON is a small (about the size of a matchstick), thin, and flexible birth control implant that provides 3 years* of continuous pregnancy prevention

A provider will insert the Nexplanon birth control implant, also known as a contraceptive implant, into the non-dominant upper arm. She will first cleans the area with antiseptic and inject a numbing medicine. After inserting the implant she will bandage it.
