🌸 6 Health Checks Every Woman Should Prioritize
👩⚕️ As a Family Physician, I often see how women put everyone else first — but your health matters too. Here’s what every woman should regularly monitor:
1️⃣ Pap Smear & HPV Testing Start by age 21. Screen every 3 years to detect early cervical changes. Early detection = full prevention.
2️⃣ Breast Health Monthly self-exams & clinical breast exams yearly. After 40, regular mammograms as advised by your doctor.
3️⃣ Thyroid Function Test Women are more prone to thyroid disorders. Get it checked, especially if you have fatigue, weight changes, or mood swings.
4️⃣ Bone Density Test (DEXA) After menopause or if there’s a family history of osteoporosis. Strong bones = long independence.
5️⃣ Blood Pressure, Sugar & Lipid Profile Heart disease is the leading cause of death in women. Screen early, even without symptoms.
6️⃣ Mental Health Check-In Stress, anxiety, mood swings — these are real. Prioritize mental well-being like physical health.
✨ Your body speaks. Don’t wait for it to scream. Prevention is power. Check in. Tune in. Take charge of your health.
