Women's Health

What is women’s health?

Women’s health focuses on the specific medical and wellness needs women encounter throughout their lives. This includes care for different life stages and the many transitions you may go through. Women's health is about more than just physical care. It also involves caring for your emotional and mental well-being. 

By prioritizing women’s health, you can better manage the unique challenges you face and enjoy a higher quality of life at each stage. Margaret offers personalized guidance and compassionate support to help you achieve your health and wellness goals.

Why is women’s health care important?

Women’s health care is crucial because it addresses the unique medical and wellness needs women experience throughout life. This type of care helps you stay healthy and prevent or manage issues specific to women, such as:

• Reproductive health
• Perimenopause and menopause
• Hormonal changes
• Breast health
• Bone health
• Heart health
• Mental and emotional well-being
• Pregnancy and postpartum care
• Sexual health

Focusing on women’s health care helps you catch potential problems early and immediately receive treatment. It also supports emotional and mental well-being, helping you navigate life’s transitions and live a healthier, happier life.

How does women’s health care change with age?

Margaret provides patient-centered women’s health care that considers your unique stage of life. Here are a few ways your care may change as you age:

In your 20s and 30s

Women’s health care may focus on family planning and contraception, reproductive health, and preventive screenings like Pap smears.

In your 40s

You might start noticing hormonal shifts and need guidance on managing perimenopause symptoms.

In your 50s

Your care may shift to managing menopause and monitoring bone density and heart health.

In your 60s and beyond

You may need more frequent check-ups for chronic conditions, screenings for cancer, and support for aging concerns like mobility and memory.

Margaret specializes in evidence-based treatments and therapies for women’s health, including nutrition therapy, lifestyle management, and hormone replacement therapy. She can help you manage your weight, reduce stress, and address hormone deficiencies to enhance your well-being.
