Get Your Annual Well Woman Exam at Lona Sasser Obstetrics and Gynecology
Why is your annual well woman exam so important?
Under the Affordable Care Act, women in the U.S. receive one free annual well woman exam. This exam is a critical preventive measure to take for your well-being. Even if you feel fine, it’s important to take advantage of this free opportunity to be examined by your gynecologist. This way, you can address health problems from their earliest stages of development, before they start to seriously impact your quality of life. Your annual well woman exam is also the perfect time to talk to your gynecologist about birth control and family planning, uncomfortable or heavy periods, symptoms related to pelvic floor discomfort or weakness, and any other gynecologic topic of concern. While it can be helpful to research these questions on your own, talking to your doctor about them can help you gain greater clarity, as well as a personalized response based on your doctor’s training, experience, and your in-person examination. And, when you’re at your exam, you can get tested for sexually transmitted infections (STIs), or request a pregnancy test.
