Gynecological exams are an important part women's health care. Annual examinations detect health problems early on and allow for appropriate treatment before they turn into serious issues. Butler Health System is staffed with a team of highly trained OB/GYN physicians who provide thorough gynecological exams and any other tests that may be required for optimum health.
The following are tests that may be included in your gynecological exam, pending the doctor's suggestions:
Teens – Pre-pregnancy:
Reproductive years:
Lactation Services:
Postmenopausal:
Starting from age 21 and onwards, women should receive regular gynecological exams to check for cancer and STDs. As you age, more tests should be added to your gynecological exam, including a Pap test, Mammogram, chlamydia test, and STI testing. With regular testing, doctors can catch problems early, which makes them significantly easier to treat. Some problems may even be entirely prevented if doctors spot warning signs soon enough. It is best to have an exam once every 3 years, unless your doctor advices otherwise.
