Your gynecological question or complaint
You always discuss your gynecological question or complaint with the (female) gynecologist herself in Karmenta's consultation room. A video call consultation is sometimes also possible. More time is taken for you than in the hospital, so that we can also talk about your specific situation and the person behind the patient. This is important to us so that we can determine the best treatment for you together. So prepare your conversation well by, for example, writing down your questions at home, or by bringing someone along who can listen in. Of course we also discuss the intended result. But also the risks and possible complications. We will also check whether you have understood everything and possibly provide you with more information to make a good decision. If possible we make an (usually internal) ultrasound and sometimes we also do the treatment right away, if you want that of course.

Your question of complaint relating the menopause
You always discuss your questions or complaints about the menopause in Karmenta's consultation room with the (female) gynaecologist herself. A video call consultation is sometimes also possible. More time is taken for you than in the hospital, so that we can also talk about your specific situation and the person behind the patient. We think this is important in order to determine the best treatment for you together. So prepare your conversation well by, for example, writing down your questions at home, or by bringing someone along who can listen in. There is a form on the website with which you can already map out the menopausal complaints. We will then add this to your file, so that the gynecologist can see it before you come to the consultation. The gynecologist focuses mainly on the physical side of the menopause.
Karmenta also works with menopause consultants. Their treatment often also focuses on coaching and lifestyle. If you wish, we can of course refer you to this and possibly also discuss your specific situation (multi-disciplinary).

Your question about the vaccination againts the Human Papiloma Virus (HPV)
HPV stands for Human Papillomavirus (HPV). In total, there are more than 100 HPV types. Some of these are high-risk HPV types. These can cause cancer. There are also low-risk HPV types. These can cause genital warts, among other things. Karmenta is one of the few clinics in the Netherlands that offers HPV vaccination against nine types of the HPV virus.
You can discuss your questions about HPV and the HPV vaccination with the urologist (men) or gynecologist (women). And in our clinic you can also be vaccinated. This is not always insured care, so you usually have to pay for the vaccination and treatment yourself.

Your question about weight loss using medication
Sometimes it is important for the success of your treatment that you lose weight first. We can help you with this with medication and often also with the guidance of a dietician. We prescribe the medication with a prescription that you can get at the pharmacy, such as the Ceres Service Pharmacy in Heesch (which has the medicine in stock). The treatment is usually covered by your health insurer, but the medication is not. You have to pay that yourself. Treatment by the dietician is usually covered by the reimbursement of your health insurer.

Your question about the Urolon™ behandeling
Urinary complaints and stress incontinence can be caused by a urethra that no longer closes properly, causing you to lose urine unintentionally. Urolon™ is a treatment in which a resorbable substance is injected around the urethra, so that the urethra is supported and closes properly again. The innovative Urolon treatment can in many cases prevent more serious surgery.

Pelvic physiotherapy
Karmenta works together with a pelvic physiotherapist. This means that we can treat complaints of the pelvic floor by both the gynecologist and the pelvic physiotherapist and that your treatment is coordinated. So you can only make an appointment with the pelvic physiotherapist if you are also a patient at Karmenta.There is multidisciplinary consultation about the patients and this allows us to determine the best treatment for your complaints together with you.
The pelvic physiotherapist works independently and autonomously
Although there is a lot of collaboration, the pelvic physiotherapist formally works as an independent healthcare provider. As a patient you have a treatment agreement with her and you will also receive an invoice from the pelvic physiotherapist, which you can submit to your supplementary insurance, if you have one, for reimbursement. You will therefore not receive a bill from Karmenta for pelvic physiotherapy, but you will for specialist medical care (the care product, DBC). You can make an appointment with a pelvic physiotherapist with Karmenta, you are also usually registered as a patient in the EPD of Karmenta and the pelvic physiotherapist.
