Megan Hrenya, NP

After growing up in Marietta, Georgia, I went to Auburn University before going to the University of Alabama at Birmingham for medical school. I remained there for my residency. \n My husband and I moved to Mount Pleasant in 2002, so he could start his dental practice, and I could begin my career as an ob-gyn. We've since expanded our family with two daughters. \n I've been with Lowcountry OB/GYN since 2010. I am a Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology and am certified by the American Board of Obstetrics & Gynecology. I'm also a member of the American Medical Association, South Carolina Medical Association, South Carolina Obstetrical and Gynecological Society and Charleston County Medical Society.

Sexual health and hormone management are issues that affect every woman during their lifetime, but many women are not comfortable talking about them. More than 40% of women will experience a sexual health problem at some point, but less than 10% of women discuss these problems with a provider. As a board-certified gynecologist specializing in women's sexual health and hormone management, I want to give every one of my patients a chance to share their concerns and ask their questions so they can get the care they need. Whether my patients have sexual health concerns related to intimacy on their own or with a partner, I want them to know I am here to help. This could include finding the reason for pelvic pain or a recurrent infection, or offering help for sexual health concerns after major life changes such as pregnancy or illness. For women dealing with hormone changes at any stage of life, I want them to know that treatment is available to lessen the impacts of these changes. There have been major developments in women's care in recent years and I am excited to share them with my patients. I am proud to be a Fellow of the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology; a fellow of the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health; and a Certified Menopause Practitioner. Family keeps me busy when I am not at work. My husband and I have two children. Together, we love traveling. I also enjoy cooking for family and friends, and walking my dog.
