Our women's primary care services include:
HPV vaccination – officially recommended/approved for women 9 to 26 years of age.
Begin Pap test every three years. Your provider may recommend a breast exam every one to three years.
May include HPV testing with your Pap tests; If you have normal results, you only need to have a Pap test every five years.
Begin considering getting a mammogram.
Your clinician may recommend a colon cancer screening based on certain risk factors (i.e., family history, African American race, American Indian, Alaskan Native, obesity, and others).
Colon cancer screening (colonoscopy) and Mammogram; it is recommended that women start screening at age 50.
Bone mineral density test to check for osteoporosis; Ask your doctor if you need to continue having Pap tests.
Speak with your doctor about whether you still need to have mammograms and colon cancer screening. For some women, it might make sense to stop these tests.
