Women's health encompasses reproductive health, menopause, and pregnancy. Reproductive health includes menstrual health, contraception, fertility, and sexual wellness. Menopause, usually around age 50, brings symptoms such as hot flashes and an increased risk of osteoporosis and heart disease. Hormone therapy can help, but it carries risks. Pregnancy involves three important stages, health concerns such as nutrition, gestational diabetes, and birth options. Regular checkups, screening tests (e.g., Pap tests, mammograms), and preventive care are essential to effectively manage these stages.
