It is National Women’s Health Week, which is a good time to remind women about scheduling routine checkups.

This includes an overall wellness exam, in addition to a breast exam and pelvic exam.

Other tests may also be ordered depending on the person’s medical history and age.

These kinds of appointments aren’t only important for prevention but to help identify any possible issues.

It’s also beneficial for women to know their family history, so they’re aware of any health issues that may affect them.
