Healthy Women: Comprehensive Guide to Optimal Health & Wellness

Healthy Women Comprehensive Guide to Optimal Health & Wellness

Optimal health and wellness are important features for every woman to achieve and maintain throughout life. However, many ladies lead very busy lives with multiple responsibilities and often don’t find time to focus on personal health. 

However, if you invest in health today, you stand a better chance of living a longer, healthier, and fuller life. At The Doctors Bushland Beach, we understand this and offer a range of services aimed at meeting the unique health needs of women. 

In this guide, we explore the essentials of women’s health, giving insight and practical advice to help you become one of the many healthy women leading happy lives.

Antenatal Check-Up: Ensuring a Healthy Pregnancy

Pregnancy is quite an exciting and important time in the life of a woman. Antenatal check-ups are very important for maintaining the health of both mother and baby. These check-ups will highlight and allow early management of any complications to ensure a smooth pregnancy. 

The general practitioners at The Doctors Bushland Beach are committed to providing comprehensive antenatal care to ensure that you and your baby stay healthy.

Did you know, pregnant women experience morning sickness? One can deal with such normal symptoms through regular check-ups.

Pregnancy Testing: Accurate and Confidential

If you’re thinking of starting a family or if you suspect you might be pregnant, accurate and confidential pregnancy testing is important. Early detection for timely antenatal care is important in any healthy pregnancy. 

Our general practitioners are available to provide you with reliable pregnancy testing services so that you may get the necessary support and advice right from the very beginning.

Contraception: Making Informed Choices

Contraception forms a big part in women’s health. With the numerous different options available, it is a matter of finding the one which best suits one’s lifestyle and health requirements. 

Our GPs can professionally advise on and provide anything from oral contraception to long-acting reversible contraception, such as Implanon.

You probably may not know, but about 64% of Australian women between the ages of 18-49 years use one form of contraception or another. Being on the right method makes all the difference in terms of health and well-being.

Medical Termination: Safe and Supportive Care

Unwanted pregnancy needs to be treated with care and safety. Medical termination is safe for those who would not want to continue the pregnancy. Our general practitioners offer dedicated care, making sure all the necessary supports and medical attention are given in comfort.

  1. Implanon Insertion and Removal: Convenience in Contraception

Implanon is a popular long-acting contraceptive implant that combines convenience with reliability. It is inserted under the skin of the upper arm, preventing pregnancy for as long as three years. Our general practitioners are competent to insert and remove Implanon and will always make sure you receive the best possible care. If you want to try Implanon, then our team can take you through the pros and indicate if it is right for you.

  1. Pap Smears: Catching it in Time Saves Lives

Regular Pap smears provide the key to early detection for cervical cancer. This is a basic, simple test for abnormal cells that can become cancerous and, with early enough detection, be treated before they do. Statistics show regular Pap smears have reduced the rates of cervical cancer by 70%. Our GPs at The Doctors Bushland Beach work hard to conduct thorough yet sensitive Pap smears, assisting you to stay healthy and informed.

  1. STI Checks: Protecting Your Sexual Health

Sexually transmitted infections, when left untreated, may be a hazard to health. Regular STI checks are crucial for the protection of your sexual health and the prevention of the transmission of such infections. 

Our general practitioners offer confidential, comprehensive testing and treatment for STIs so that you receive the necessary care and information to maintain a healthy and active lifestyle.
