When last did you go for wellness check?

Have You Gone for Your Wellness Check as a Woman?

Many women wait until they feel sick before going to the hospital. But serious conditions like breast cancer, cervical cancer, high blood pressure, diabetes, and fibroids can stay silent for years without symptoms.

A simple women’s wellness check can detect these problems early, when treatment is easier, safer, and more affordable.

Every woman should routinely check:
• Blood pressure
• Blood sugar
• Breast examination
• Pap smear (cervical cancer screening)
• Pelvic scan when necessary

Do not wait for pain before you act. Early detection saves lives.

Your health is your first wealth.

Uterine Fibroid :Simple Facts Every Woman Should Know

Uterine fibroids are non-cancerous growths inside the womb. They are very common in women, especially between ages 20 and 45.

Many women have fibroids without knowing, but for others, it can cause serious problems with menstruation, fertility, and pregnancy.

Common signs of fibroid
• Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
• Passage of blood clots
• Lower abdominal swelling
• Pelvic pain or pressure
• Frequent urination
• Difficulty getting pregnant
• Miscarriage
• Weakness from blood loss (anemia)

Some women may have no symptoms and only find out during a scan.

How fibroid is diagnosed
• Pelvic examination
• Ultrasound scan

Can fibroid affect pregnancy?

Yes. Depending on the size and position, fibroids can delay pregnancy, cause miscarriage, or lead to complications in pregnancy.

Treatment

Treatment depends on the size, symptoms, and if the woman still wants to have children:
• Observation if small and not causing problems
• Drugs to control bleeding and pain
• Myomectomy (removal of fibroid, womb remains)
• Hysterectomy (removal of womb in severe cases)

There is no proven herbal cure that can remove fibroids.

What to do

If you have heavy periods, abdominal swelling, or difficulty conceiving, see a doctor and do a scan.

Early detection gives better treatment options.
