Women's Health
Women have their own health issues due to a complex reproductive system that makes them unique from men.
A variety of diseases such as heart attack, depression, anxiety, sexually-transmitted infections (STI), osteoarthritis, and urinary tract problems can affect women more severely than men. These problems necessitate them visiting their doctor at timely intervals in order to screen for various diseases. Screening tests can assess the risk for future illnesses and help in their early detection.
Regular assessments are important for women’s health. Cervical cancer and precancerous changes of the cervix are common problems that should be assessed and treated early. Approximately one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime so breast examinations should be a part of your overall health plan.Our doctors at Jema Clinic perform these examinations and assessments. We also have a fully functional treatment room with registered nurses.
