Why Are Health Care Checkups Important for Women?

Why Are Health Care Checkups Important for Women?

Unlike men, women have a distinctive set of healthcare challenges and are specific to various conditions and diseases, such as PCOS, uterine fibroids, vaginitis, etc. Heart disease, cancer, and diabetes remain the leading causes of death for women, but these diseases can be prevented or treated if detected earlier. Furthermore, for those aspiring to embrace motherhood, the thought of pregnancy brings forth some health risks for both the expectant woman and her baby, so prenatal and postnatal care are important. These are the reasons why providing women with the utmost level of comprehensive healthcare holds immense significance.

How Often Should a Woman Get a Checkup?

How Often Should a Woman Get a Checkup?

Generally, women should get a wellness checkup every year from the age of 21. A wellness exam involves a physical exam, Pap smear test, pelvic exam, and breast exam, to detect abnormalities and diseases early, maintaining overall well-being and a healthy lifestyle.
