Women’s Health Q & A
Why does women’s health require specialized care?
As a woman, you’re aware of the impact your reproductive system has on your body. But even so, you can’t get a clear view of its inner workings.
With routine women’s health visits at RevaMed Primary Care Associates, their team of committed women’s health practitioners screen you for not just general health conditions but also conditions specific to women. This way, you get thorough, personalized care that helps you lead your healthiest life.
What should I expect during a women’s health visit?
Your women’s health visit at RevaMed Primary Care Associates consists of three parts:
Health history
During the first portion of your appointment, you talk with your RevaMed Primary Care Associates women’s health care provider.
You discuss your personal and family health history. Knowing if there are any illnesses or injuries that have already impacted your body or that are more likely because of your genetics helps them ensure you receive relevant screenings.
Similarly, you talk about your lifestyle, including your exercise, food, and sleep habits and your sexual activity. Again, knowing more about what your body experiences day-to-day helps your RevaMed Primary Care Associates provider deliver the right preventive care for you.
Physical exam and screenings
Next, your RevaMed Primary Care Associates women’s health care provider physically checks your body for any relevant conditions based on the health history you just discussed, your age, and a number of other factors. This portion of your exam may include:
- A pelvic exam
- A breast exam
- A Pap test
- Blood tests
With these screenings, your RevaMed Primary Care Associates practitioner screens you for a wide range of health conditions, including cervical cancer, breast cancer, and sexually transmitted diseases.
You leave your appointment knowing your body, including your reproductive organs, have been checked for any health complications.
Family planning
Whether you simply want to renew a birth control prescription or you think you’re ready to get pregnant and want help preparing your body, the RevaMed Primary Care Associates team supports your family planning needs.
How often should I schedule women’s health visits?
To be proactive about your health, schedule a women’s health visit once a year. This annual visit to RevaMed Primary Care Associates allows your women’s health expert the opportunity to screen you for relevant health conditions and discuss your health and well-being with you. They work with you to help you lead the longest, healthiest life.
