Unique health challenges women face
The many changes women experience as they progress through life can put them at increased risk for several chronic health conditions.
Here are four common health challenges women face in different phases of life:
1. Sexual health issues
Sexually active women of any age are at risk for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) like gonorrhea and syphilis any time they have unprotected sex.
If left undiagnosed and untreated, STDs can contribute to significant reproductive health issues, infertility, and stillbirths.
2. Reproductive health issues
About 11% of American women of childbearing age experience infertility.
Difficulties in conceiving can occur for several reasons, including underlying conditions like endometriosis and ovulation disorders.
3. Reproductive cancers
Cervical cancer and breast cancer are the two most common types of cancers affecting women.
Early cancer detection is essential to preserving a woman’s general wellness and reproductive health. Without an early diagnosis, cancer can spread elsewhere and become increasingly difficult to treat.
4. Hormone imbalance
Pregnancy and menopause are common causes of hormone imbalances in women.
When hormone levels remain unbalanced, women can experience a wide range of persistent symptoms that affect their physical health, sexual wellness, cognitive function, and overall quality of life.
