No one wants to hear that the results of a Pap smear are abnormal, but most of the time, there’s no need to worry. Here’s what to know about Pap smears and their results.
Obstetrics and Gynecology Welcome!
The Association for Women’s Health Care provides comprehensive, compassionate OB/GYN care to women living in The Loop in Chicago and Northbrook, Illinois. With offices in both locations, you’re guaranteed convenient screening, diagnosis, and treatment from a team of expert doctors and nurses.
Regardless of what stage of life you’re in, the professional team at The Association for Women’s Health Care can help you. Adolescent women can establish a health care routine and learn the basics about their bodies, be educated on contraception and safe sex practices, and learn about possible menstrual problems.
The practice provides care for the concerns of women in their 20s and 30s and performs services, such as STD screenings, breast exams, and preconception counseling. As you ease into perimenopause, the years prior to the cessation of your menstrual cycle, the doctors can help you manage symptoms, such as hot flashes, mood swings, and vaginal dryness.
When you’ve gone a full year without a period, you’re in menopause, which increases your risk of certain health complications, including osteoporosis and heart disease. The doctors educate you about ways to prevent these chronic issues, and they continue to monitor your gynecologic health throughout your lifespan.
