Annual GYN Exam
PPNC performs routine gynecological exams that include a pelvic exam, breast exam, Pap smear (if needed) and assessment of the heart and lungs.
Taking care of yourself is important! Routine gynecological care:
- Prevents illness and discomfort
- Allows for early detection of cancers of the breast and cervix
- Detects sexually transmitted infections and other conditions before they cause serious damage
- Prevents sterility
- Promotes healthy pregnancy and childbirth
Women should have their first GYN exam when they turn 18 or when they decide to become sexually active.
