Why should I have regular Women’s Health checks?


Women’s health checks are a vital aspect of maintaining optimal health. Investing in routine checkups ensures that any potential health concerns are addressed proactively before they become more severe. It also helps detect a range of conditions early on, when treatment is most effective.


Regular women’s health checkups can help detect:


Breast Cancer: Regular breast exams, mammograms, and other tests can detect breast cancer at an early stage when treatment is most effective.


Cervical Cancer: Cervical screening tests (or pap smear) can detect changes in the cervix that may indicate cervical cancer or pre-cancerous conditions. This should be done annually or every 5 years depending on your medical history


Ovarian Cancer: Pelvic exams and imaging tests can help detect ovarian cancer at an early stage.


Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs): Infections like chlamydia, gonorrhoea, and HPV can often have no symptoms. If left untreated, it can cause serious long-term health problems.


Heart Disease: Regular checkups can help identify risk factors for heart disease, such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol


Diabetes: blood sugar testing can help identify early signs of diabetes, allowing for early intervention and management.


At our Melbourne GP clinic, we offer comprehensive women’s health checkups to provide personalized care that meets your unique health needs.


These Check-ups include but not limited to:


Routine check-ups: Blood tests to check for anemia, iron levels, thyroid function, and cholesterol levels. For women age 65 and up, bone density scans may also be recommended

Health screenings: Breast exams, Cervical screening (pap smears), STI screening.

Immunisations: Human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, Meningococcal (Whooping cough) vaccine, Hepatitis A and B vaccine


How often should I have a Women's Health Check?

The frequency of women’s health check-ups can depend on several factors, such as age, personal health history, family history, and lifestyle factors. Generally, it is recommended that women have a regular health check-up with their GP at least once a year.
