As a certified menopause practitioner and a past President of the North American Menopause Society (NAMS), Dr Goldstein works with women experiencing perimenopause and menopause to understand the changes their bodies are undergoing, lifestyle changes necessary, and what treatments are available.

As a woman enters perimenopause and ovulation is on the decline, unscheduled bleeding may occur and cause alarm. This dysfunctional uterine bleeding in perimenopausal patients can be caused by a lack of ovulation, which is better treated hormonally, not surgically. So how can a gynecologist determine whether the bleeding is caused by a lack of ovulation without doing any surgical procedures to diagnose the condition? The answer is a non-invasive, painless procedure called Sonohysterography which is performed in a few minutes right in the office.

Traditionally diagnostic procedures such as biopsy, suction aspiration, suction curettage, and diagnostic hysteroscopy were performed. However, these are invasive procedures which are painful, costly, and inconvenient to the patient. Dr Goldstein prefers to use non-invasive procedures such as the aforementioned sonohysterography.

Sonohysterography, by assessing endometrial thickness, can reliably distinguish between patients whose bleeding is as a result of a lack of ovulation and those who are in need of formal curettage and hysteroscopy.

Since in both transvaginal ultrasounds and Sonohysterography the skill of the operator is very important, Dr Goldstein performs both these procedures himself to see the uterus, the lining etc. himself. Clear, high definition images are produced for analysis and diagnosis. Dr Goldstein is not just a top New York City Gynecologist, but he is also Director of Gynecologic Ultrasound at NYU Langone Medical Center and a Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology, New York University School of Medicine. Thus he is very well qualified to perform Sonohysterograms and properly diagnose the cause of any abnormal uterine bleeding.

Dr Goldstein has found that in the vast amount of patients abnormal uterine bleeding is associated with episodes of no ovulation. This condition can be managed hormonally in premenopausal patients.
