Dokanzan Women's Mind and Body Clinic AYA Clinic
About
Located in Nishi-Nippori, Arakawa Ward, Tokyo, Dokanzan Mind and Body Clinic for Women AYA Clinic is a clinic specializing in gynecology. Based on the concept of "unity of mind and body," we provide holistic medical care that views body and mind as one. The clinic is staffed by a physician with 32 years of experience at St. Luke's International Hospital, specializing in perinatal and menopausal medicine. We treat a wide range of gynecological conditions, addressing not only uterine and ovarian abnormalities but also symptoms involving psychosocial factors. For menstrual accompanying symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, hypermenorrhea, and menstrual-related migraines, we consider treatment from both physical and psychological perspectives. We dedicate particular time and care to treating menopausal disorders, menopausal depression, premenstrual syndrome, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder, which are our areas of expertise. Menopausal disorders are believed to develop through complex interactions between endocrine changes due to estrogen decline and psychosocial factors. Prevention and treatment of osteoporosis are also provided. We also address PMS, where symptoms such as irritability, anger, and depression before menstruation resolve with the onset of menstruation, as well as PMDD, which affects daily life. An AYA Clinic targeting adolescents and young adults is also on-site, accepting consultations regarding physical and mental health issues related to stress, primarily in the obstetrics and gynecology field. As a lifelong primary care physician for women, we do not perform gynecological examinations or tests, but if necessary, they are conducted at other medical facilities. English services are available.
