3 REASONS WHY WOMEN SHOULD HAVE REGULAR HEALTH CHECKUPS

PREVENTION OF COMMON ILLNESSES

1.Depression:The pressure of juggling work and family commitments puts women at a higher risk of depression than men.

2.Obesity:During menopause, women can gain at least 5 kg. This puts them at risk of obesity, leading to other chronic diseases such as fatty liver, arteriosclerosis, diabetes, etc.

3.Osteoporosis: Your skeleton is designed to be fully developed at the age of 30. Therefore, maintaining musculoskeletal health after this age is very important.

4.Gynecologic problems:Almost all women are at risk of common gynecologic problems such as menstrual disorders, vaginitis, cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease, ovarian inflammation, uterine fibroids, etc.

5.Breast cancer: This is the most common cause of death in women. It’s much more common in women than in men. Women who are old, overweight, have no children or have late childbirths are at a higher risk of breast cancer.
