Many women in Clark County split their care in two: a medical office for hormones and screenings, and a separate practice for everything else. Neither one sees the whole picture. At Body Balance, the perimenopause conversation, the weight that stopped responding, the Pap smear you're overdue for and the recurring UTIs are handled in one place, by one provider who knows your labs and your history.
"When a patient tells me her labs were normal but she feels anything but normal, that's the beginning of the conversation — not the end of it." — Alana Berdiyev, DNP, ARNP, FNP-C · Medical Director & Founder, Body Balance Med
Care by Life Stage
Where You Are Right Now Shapes the Plan
Women's health isn't one conversation. What you need at 28 is not what you need at 44 or 58, and treating all three the same is how symptoms get dismissed. Your visit starts with where you are — cycles, symptoms, medications, family history and what you actually want to change — and testing is used to explain what you're experiencing rather than to overrule it.
Because hormone therapy, medical weight loss and pelvic health are all managed here, we can look at how they interact instead of treating them as separate problems in separate offices. Where a concern is better served elsewhere — surgical management, high-risk obstetrics, oncology — we say so and refer.

Perimenopause & Menopause Care — Camas & Vancouver, WA
Perimenopause is where most women get told nothing is wrong. Cycles start changing, sleep breaks apart, the weight settles differently, and the fatigue doesn't lift no matter how early you go to bed — and a single hormone panel drawn on an arbitrary day comes back within range.
It comes back within range because hormone levels swing enormously during this stage. That is what perimenopause is. Diagnosis rests on your symptom pattern and cycle history, with testing used to fill in the picture and rule out other causes such as thyroid disease or anemia. Alana is a member of the North American Menopause Society, and hormones are what she manages week in and week out — not a protocol added on to an aesthetics practice.
Treatment may mean hormone replacement therapy, testosterone pellets, non-hormonal medication, medical weight loss, laser vaginal rejuvenation, or a combination — decided after evaluation, not before it.
Book a Consultation
- Cycles that shorten, lengthen or become unpredictable
- Night sweats and hot flashes
- Waking at 2–4 a.m. and not falling back asleep
- Brain fog, irritability and mood changes
- Weight gain that no longer responds to what used to work
- Vaginal dryness, discomfort with intimacy, low libido
- Fatigue that a full night's sleep doesn't fix
Regenerative Option
PRP Therapy for Sexual Health in Camas & Vancouver, WA
Platelet-rich plasma is drawn from your own blood, concentrated in-office, and injected into specific areas of vaginal and vulvar tissue. It is autologous — your own biology, nothing synthetic and nothing from a donor. For some women it is the right first step; for others, laser or hormonal treatment fits better, and for some the answer is a combination.
PRP is performed by Alana Berdiyev, DNP, ARNP, FNP-C, who evaluates whether it is appropriate before offering it. Evidence quality varies by indication — some uses are better supported in the literature than others — and results vary between patients. No outcome is guaranteed. Your protocol, including how many sessions are appropriate and how they are spaced, is confirmed at consultation rather than sold as a package.
What PRP Is
- Drawn from your own blood at your appointment
- Concentrated in-office, then injected
- Autologous — no donor material, nothing synthetic
Concerns It May Help
- Low libido, reduced arousal or orgasmic response
- Vaginal dryness and pain with intimacy — including after menopause or breast cancer treatment
- Stress and urge urinary incontinence
- Lichen sclerosus and lichen planus
- Chronic pain from childbirth or episiotomy scarring
On Its Own, or With Laser
- Available as a standalone treatment
- Or combined with Fotona IntimaLase where that fits better
- Which one — and whether either is right — is a clinical decision, not a menu
- Hormonal causes are assessed alongside, not ignored
Meet Your Provider
Your Women's Health Provider in Camas & Vancouver, WA
Women's health at Body Balance is provided by our onsite medical director — the same provider at every visit, who reads your chart before you walk in.
Alana founded Body Balance after watching patients split their care in two — a medical office for hormones and health concerns, an aesthetic practice for everything else — and receive care that treated the symptom in front of it but never the whole person. She is the onsite medical director and personally provides women's health care at the clinic.
Her clinical background spans surgical, oncology and women's health settings across hospital and outpatient environments, and her practice centers on hormones, menopause and perimenopause, contraception, preventive care, and the pelvic and genitourinary symptoms that come with hormonal change. That is the lens she brings to every women's health visit: a Pap smear, a weight plateau and a sleep complaint are read together, as part of one picture.
- Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) — Washington State University
- Board-Certified ARNP, FNP-C — Washington State
- Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) — Seattle University
- Member, North American Menopause Society (NAMS)
- Advanced Fotona Laser Medicine Certification
- Clinical background: Women's Health, Surgical & Oncology Care
- Integrates with hormone therapy where appropriate
Clinical Standards
Your Safety, Our Standard
Medical information notice: the content on this page is educational and is not a substitute for a clinical consultation — candidacy, expected results and risks are determined individually. Here is how Body Balance approaches that responsibility in women's health.
Testing Before Treatment
Hormone therapy, testosterone pellets and weight programs begin with lab work — sex hormones, thyroid function and metabolic markers relevant to your symptoms and history. No prescriptions are written before testing.
Screening Kept on Schedule
Pap smear intervals, HPV co-testing, breast evaluation and hereditary cancer risk are tracked against current U.S. screening guidance and adjusted for your personal history rather than applied as a default.
A Menopause-Trained Provider
Alana is a member of the North American Menopause Society and manages hormones as a routine part of her practice. Perimenopause and menopause symptoms are assessed against a full hormonal picture, not treated in isolation.
Symptoms Investigated, Not Assumed
Recurring UTIs, irregular bleeding and pelvic discomfort can have several different causes that look alike. We test to distinguish them rather than treating one course of antibiotics at a time.
Referral When That's the Answer
Some findings belong with a gynecologic surgeon, a maternal-fetal specialist or an oncologist. Your provider evaluates for those and refers you rather than treating you when referral is the right call.
Emergency Preparedness
Our clinic maintains emergency protocols consistent with best practices for in-office medical procedures. Alana's high-acuity hospital background — surgical nursing, oncology and women's health — informs those protocols.
Patient Selection
Not Everyone Is a Candidate — And That's the Point
Being selective about who we treat is part of how we practice safely. At every consultation your provider assesses whether treatment is appropriate right now — not just whether it's possible. A good provider declines when the conditions aren't right. We do.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions About Women's Health in Camas & Vancouver
Don't see your question? Call us at (360) 859-8393 or book a consultation.
No referral is needed to book with Body Balance — you can reach out directly. If you plan to use insurance, some plans have their own requirements, and our team will help you check your coverage before your visit so there are no surprises.
Yes. Body Balance accepts Aetna, United Healthcare, Cigna and Regence/BCBS, and HSA/FSA funds may be used for eligible services. Medical women's health visits — annual exams, Pap smears, contraception management, UTI and vaginitis evaluation, irregular bleeding work-ups and breast concerns — are frequently covered. Elective and aesthetic services remain self-pay, and we tell you which category a service falls into before we schedule it.
Cost depends on your insurance coverage and what your visit involves. Because we accept major insurance plans, many patients pay far less than they would at cash-only hormone and wellness clinics — visits and lab work are frequently covered. We provide a transparent cost breakdown for anything not covered, and Cherry financing with 0% APR options for qualifying purchases is available if needed.
Perimenopause is identified primarily from symptoms and cycle changes rather than from a single lab value, because hormone levels fluctuate significantly day to day during this stage. Common signs include cycles that shorten or lengthen, night sweats, sleep that breaks in the early hours, mood changes, brain fog, and weight gain that no longer responds to what used to work. It commonly begins in the 40s but can start earlier. Your consultation combines your symptom history with appropriate testing.
DUTCH stands for Dried Urine Test for Comprehensive Hormones. It measures hormones and their metabolites — how your body processes hormones, not only how much is circulating at the moment of a blood draw. It can add useful detail on cortisol patterns and estrogen metabolism. It is one input among several, used alongside blood work and your symptoms rather than in place of them.
Yes. Non-hormonal options include sleep and lifestyle strategies, non-hormonal prescription medications, pelvic floor support including pessary fitting, and laser treatment for vaginal dryness and discomfort. We go through the options and the evidence with you rather than defaulting to one path.
For most patients, current U.S. screening guidance is a Pap test every three years from age 21 to 29, and from age 30 to 65 either a Pap every three years, HPV testing every five years, or co-testing every five years. Your own history — including prior abnormal results, immune status or DES exposure — can change that interval. We confirm the right schedule for you at your visit.
Yes. Testosterone pellets are small bioidentical implants placed under the skin that release hormone steadily over several months, which avoids daily dosing. In women they are used most often for low libido, persistent fatigue and low mood when evaluation supports it. Candidacy is determined by lab work, symptoms and medical history — never by symptoms alone.
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. A small amount of your own blood is drawn at your appointment, concentrated in-office, and injected into specific areas of vaginal and vulvar tissue — so the material is autologous, meaning it comes from you rather than from a donor or a synthetic source. It is used for low libido and reduced arousal or orgasmic response, vaginal dryness and pain with intimacy including after menopause or breast cancer treatment, stress and urge urinary incontinence, lichen sclerosus and lichen planus, and chronic pain from childbirth or episiotomy scarring. Evidence quality varies by indication and results vary between patients, so candidacy is assessed individually and no outcome is guaranteed.
Yes. Some patients have PRP on its own, some have Fotona IntimaLase on its own, and for some a combination fits best. Which approach is appropriate depends on your symptoms, your examination and whether a hormonal cause should be addressed alongside or instead — it is a clinical decision made at consultation, not a package you select in advance. Your provider will also tell you when neither treatment is the right answer.
Hormone therapy is generally not appropriate with a current or suspected hormone-sensitive cancer, unexplained vaginal bleeding that has not been evaluated, active liver disease, a history of blood clots, stroke or heart attack without specialist clearance, or during pregnancy. Laser vaginal rejuvenation is not appropriate during pregnancy or within 6 weeks postpartum, with an active vaginal, urinary tract or pelvic infection, with a current or suspected gynecologic malignancy, after recent pelvic surgery, or with severe pelvic organ prolapse that may need surgical rather than laser management. Your provider evaluates you fully at consultation and will refer you rather than treat you when that is the right answer.
