Women's Health FAQ’s

Women’s health focuses on the unique medical needs and conditions that affect women throughout their lives. It encompasses preventive care, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions specific to women, such as breast cancer, cervical cancer, menopause, and reproductive health issues. Women’s health is different because it takes into account the physiological and hormonal differences between women and men, providing tailored care that addresses specific risks and health concerns unique to women.

Women should have routine health examinations at least once a year. These annual check-ups are crucial for early detection and management of potential health issues. Depending on age, lifestyle, family history, and existing health conditions, some women may need more frequent visits. Regular health exams typically include vital sign monitoring, screening tests, immunisations, and personalised health advice to maintain overall well-being.

For women over 40, the following screenings are typically recommended:

  1. Mammograms: To detect early signs of breast cancer.
  2. Cervical Cancer Screening: Pap smear and HPV testing to detect cervical cancer or precancerous changes.
  3. Bone Density Test: To screen for osteoporosis, especially for women with risk factors.
  4. Heart Health Check: Regular blood pressure checks, cholesterol tests, and assessment of cardiovascular risk factors.
  5. Diabetes Screening: Blood glucose tests to detect prediabetes or diabetes.
  6. Colorectal Cancer Screening: Colonoscopy or other colorectal cancer tests to detect early signs of cancer or polyps.
  7. Thyroid Function Tests: Especially if there are symptoms of thyroid disease.
  8. Eye and Hearing Exams: To monitor vision and hearing changes that may occur with age.
  9. Skin Cancer Screening: Examination of the skin for any unusual moles or changes.

These screenings help in the early detection and management of health conditions, promoting better health outcomes and quality of life for women over 40.
