If you are searching for a trusted women's health clinic Ankeny, you are in the right place. We provide modern, evidence-based care for every stage of a woman's life—from first periods and family planning to perimenopause, menopause, and healthy aging. Your care is led by Terrilee Jackel, ARNP, FNP-BC, a board-certified family nurse practitioner with advanced training in women's health. Call (515) 666-4224 to schedule your visit or ask questions.
We offer comprehensive services designed around your goals and comfort:
Terrilee Jackel, ARNP, FNP-BC believes great care starts with listening. She explains options in plain language and builds a plan you can follow. You will always understand why a test is recommended, what your results mean, and how your treatment works.
No two women have the same needs. We start with your story—symptoms, cycle patterns, lifestyle, and goals—and then design a plan that fits your life. We focus on small, steady steps that create real progress. You will leave each visit with clear instructions and an easy follow-up plan.
Prevention is more than a yearly exam. We help you keep up with:
If hot flashes, night sweats, mood shifts, low energy, or brain fog are affecting your days, we will look for the most direct cause. When hormone therapy is a good option, we review benefits and risks in a balanced way. Choices may include FDA-approved bioidentical estrogen and micronized progesterone, as well as non-hormonal treatments for those who prefer them or are not candidates. We aim for the lowest effective dose, close monitoring, and steady symptom relief.
Irregular cycles, heavy bleeding, painful periods, or PMS can disrupt daily life. We evaluate iron status, thyroid, and other contributors before recommending treatment. Options can include targeted nutrition, medications, and, when useful, hormone regulation with clear monitoring. If fertility is a goal, we start with cycle education and basic labs and coordinate referrals when needed.
Sexual wellness is part of overall health. We address vaginal dryness, discomfort, low libido, and pelvic pain with sensitivity and clear options—lubricants, vaginal estrogen when appropriate, pelvic floor therapy referrals, or other treatments. We also provide private, judgment-free STI testing and treatment.
Weight concerns are common during perimenopause and menopause. We combine realistic nutrition, protein and fiber targets, simple activity plans, and medication only when appropriate and safe. We track more than the scale—energy, sleep, waist size, and body composition—to show real progress.
Your safety and privacy come first. We use current guidelines for screening and treatment and discuss risks and benefits in simple terms. If a referral is needed, we coordinate the next steps and explain why. You will never be rushed, and your questions will be answered.
Coverage varies by service and plan. Before any testing or treatment, we explain expected costs and options. Many patients use HSA or FSA funds. Our scheduling is flexible, and we make follow-ups easy with reminder calls or messages. To speak with our team, call (515) 666-4224.
Do I need a referral?
Most patients do not need a referral. Call (515) 666-4224 to confirm with your plan.
How often should I have a well-woman exam?
We recommend yearly check-ins, with Pap/HPV based on current guidelines and your history.
What if I'm not sure which services I need?
Start with a well-woman visit. We'll build a plan from there and add testing only if it helps.
