At what age should I start scheduling annual women’s wellness visits?
All Day Medical Care Clinic generally recommends that you start getting this annual checkup at the age of 21 or when you become sexually active.
This way, the team has an opportunity to regularly screen you for any health conditions for which you might be at risk, including cervical and breast cancer.
What should I expect during my women’s wellness visit?
Your women’s wellness visit is tailored to you. First, you’ll talk with your All Day Medical Care Clinic provider about your personal health history, family health history, and lifestyle choices. This helps the team identify any health conditions for which you might have a heightened risk so they can screen you accordingly.
Then, your provider screens the health of your reproductive organs utilizing a breast exam and a Pap smear. The All Day Medical Care Clinic team checks your body for cancer and other conditions. Regular screenings help the team catch health complications early when treatment is most effective.
If your Pap smear comes back normal, you won’t need another one for another three years unless you have a heightened risk for cervical cancer (e.g., there’s a family history of it).
The All Day Medical Care Clinic team uses your women’s wellness visit to screen not just your reproductive organs, but also your entire body. Some of the additional screenings the team may use during your visit includes:
- High blood pressure screening
- High cholesterol screening
- Diabetes screening
- Heart diseases screening
- Screenings for relevant chronic conditions
