Endometriosis Specialist

Endometriosis affects 1 in 8 Australian women, and up to 32% of women of reproductive age undergoing laparoscopy for investigation of pelvic pain will have some degree of endometriosis.

Endometriosis is associated with female infertility, and is a common cause for painful sexual intercourse and painful periods.

Chronic Pelvic Pain is a complex problem that accounts for up to 10% of visits to gynaecologists, and can significantly affect the lives of many women. The cause of the pelvic pain is often multi-factorial, and the treatment approach demands a multi-disciplinary team working together to identify possible sources of the pelvic pain, and to manage the often debilitating symptoms.

Bleeding in Early Pregnancy

Bleeding in early pregnancy is often distressing for many women, but it does not always mean a miscarriage.  It often settles spontaneously, but it is a good idea to seek medical advice.  Causes for bleeding in early pregnancy includes:
  • Threatened Miscarriage
  • Inevitable Miscarriage
  • Missed Miscarriage
  • Ectopic Pregnancy
  • Incidental Bleeding (e.g. from the cervix or vagina)
Brisbane Gynaecologist Dr Ken Law offers comprehensive care for women going through a miscarriage, from confirmation of the diagnosis of miscarriage, and offers women a range of options for management, including expectant management, medical treatment, and surgery with D&C.  Dr Ken Law understands that going through a miscarriage is an emotionally distressing event for most women, and will support his patients throughout this difficult journey.  Professional support from a clinical psychologist is also available to women right from Dr Law’s practice at Greenslopes Obstetrics and Gynaecology.
