Women's Health Q & A

What is women’s health?

Women’s health refers to the services that are specific to women’s medical care. Women have needs that are distinct from men because of their anatomical differences. There are some health problems that only affect women and some that affect women differently or at disproportionate rates. 

At Prevention Clinics, Dr. Boutros helps you stay on track getting the women’s health services you need throughout adulthood. Your health and wellness can change dramatically as your body goes through major changes like puberty, menopause, pregnancy, and childbirth. Dr. Boutros answers all of your questions and is available to teach you about the changes. 

Which services does women’s health include?

You can access all of the women’s health treatments, tests, and services you need at Prevention Clinics. You should visit once a year for an annual women’s wellness exam, which includes a pelvic exam and breast exam. Some of these appointments include additional services according to your age and risk factors. 

At Prevention Clinics, you can access:

  •  
  • Sexually transmitted disease (STD) screenings
  • Birth control management
  • Breast exams
  • Hormone replacement therapy

You can also bring up topics like your menstrual cycle, fertility, and sexual health and development. Prevention Clinics provides you with the age-specific care you need at every stage in life. 

Which conditions require women’s health care?

Women’s health care addresses conditions that affect women because they stem from your sexual and reproductive system. You can also develop conditions related to an imbalance in your hormones, specifically the hormones that come from your ovaries. Dr. Boutros may also be able to help you manage diseases that affect women differently from men.

Prevention Clinics specializes in diagnosing, treating, or monitoring a variety of women’s health conditions, including:

  • Endometriosis
  • Perimenopause and menopause symptoms
  • STDs
  • Fibroids
  • Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
  • Reproductive cancers
  • Breast cancer
  • Irregular periods
  • Infertility

Prevention Clinics provides the care you need for conditions like these, which may require birth control, medications, bioidentical hormones, or minor surgeries. Dr. Boutros can also address other more general health concerns during your women’s health visits and make referrals if necessary.
