Women’s Health Q&A

What is women’s healthcare?

Women’s healthcare at Southeastern Health and Wellness addresses the concerns unique to the female reproductive system, including the vulva, vagina, uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries. It also includes monitoring breast health with manual exams and screening mammograms to ensure early detection of lumps or tissue changes.

Hannah helps you feel comfortable and at ease no matter your questions. She can talk about topics, such as:

  • Sexual health 
  • Menstruation
  • Menopause
  • Urinary tract infections (UTIs)
  • Incontinence

Southeastern Health and Wellness emphasizes preventive care and full-body health, so Hannah also provides nutrition counseling. No matter what stage of life you’re in, you can be confident that the foods you eat promote your overall health.

What types of conditions are included in women’s healthcare?

If you experience menstrual issues like painful cramps or heavy bleeding, you don’t have to suffer silently. Hannah can answer questions about these issues and various women’s health conditions, including:

  • Yeast infections
  • Endometriosis
  • Pelvic organ prolapse
  • Bacterial vaginosis
  • Premenstrual syndrome (PMS)
  • Uterine fibroids
  • Chronic pelvic pain
  • Sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)

Many women feel they have to endure the adverse effects of perimenopause and menopause, such as thinning hair, hot flashes, and vaginal dryness, but women’s healthcare at Southeastern Health and Wellness can improve their quality of life.

What can I expect from a women’s health appointment?

Your visits may vary depending on your needs, but an annual well-woman exam is a crucial part of protecting yourself. For this appointment, you visit Southeastern Health and Wellness to discuss your overall health, with a focus on reproductive health. The well-woman exam typically involves a:

  • Pelvic exam
  • Manual breast exam
  • Physical exam
  • Pap smear

During a Pap smear, Hannah collects a cell sample from your cervix to screen for cervical cancer. This is usually negative, but if she identifies cancer cells, you can receive early treatment and increase your odds of a good outcome.

This appointment is also an ideal time to establish health goals and discuss important topics like contraception or fertility, mental health, and sexual wellness.
