WOMEN WELLNESS:
As a woman, you need special exams and screenings throughout your life to protect your overall health and wellness. A women’s wellness exam includes a full physical exam, including a clinical breast and pelvic exam as well as health screenings,
blood tests, vaccinations, and education or counselling so you can make informed health care decisions. Even If you feel fine, you should make your annual women’s wellness exam a priority. These visits help you avoid serious medical problems in the future.
The Doctors in Developed countries recommends dividing a woman’s life cycle into four intervals to ensure the highest quality of primary and preventative care, including:
Ages 13-18: Young women who are not sexually active should have their first women’s wellness exam between the ages of 13-15, with annual visits thereafter. The first visit generally does not include a pelvic examination, instead your
gynecologist will likely familiarize his/herself with your medical history, including menstrual history (Menarche- start of menstrual cycle) and body mass index (BMI). They will also provide health guidance, vaccinations, screening, and
preventive health services as needed. Common issues to be noted on health parameters – Hypertension (high blood pressure), High lipids levels, Obesity, Eating disorders, Physical, sexual, or emotional abuse, Learning or school problems,
Addictions (like smoking, alcohol, drug abuse), Depression, Loneliness.
Ages 19-39: The main reasons young women in this age group visit their gynecologist for an annual wellness exam include contraception, pregnancy, and cervical cancer screening. However, it’s also important to screen for obesity,
diabetes, hypertension, and autoimmune diseases (e.g., lupus and arthritis). Annual pelvic exams and pap smears are essential for early detection and treatment of common conditions. Common issues to be noted on health parameters - Polycystic
ovary syndrome (PCOS), Uterus related - Endometriosis, Polyps Fibroids, Infertility issues, Pelvic inflammation & pain, Vulvo-vaginal issues, Sexually transmitted disease (STD), menstrual irregularity.
Ages 40-64: Women in this age group begin experiencing menstrual changes associated with peri-menopause and menopause, so it is important to monitor hormone levels and overall wellness. Here are common issues to be noted on health
parameters - for mature women: Bone density (weak bones & degenerative changes), Breast issues, Stomach & Colon related issues, Blood sugar irregularities, Thyroidal dysfunctions, Hypertension, High Cholesterol.
Ages 65+: Older women should continue seeing their gynecologist each year to promote successful aging. Women in this age group should be educated about disease prevention, particularly cardiovascular disease, and monitored for
the following conditions: Chronic lower respiratory disease, Certain cancers (e.g., ovarian, cervical and skin), Alzheimer’s disease, loss of memory, Hypertension, high lipids leverl, Obesity, Osteoporosis, lack of sleep, anxiety,
