Throughout her life, a woman's body is changing and developing.
Health care for women includes the entire spectrum of a woman's life, not just pregnancy and childbirth. At each stage of a woman's life, there are important preventive health care steps to follow in order to provide early detection of medical problems, or to prevent them entirely. To maintain general good health:
- Exercise daily.
- Eat a healthy, balanced diet, low in saturated fats.
- Have at least 5 servings of fruit and vegetables every day.
- Do not smoke.
- Get regular healthcare examinations.
- Learn to identify potential health problems.
- Follow cancer prevention guidelines (for lifestyle and for cancer screening).
