Check-Up Checklist

It's your time! Each year, National Women's Health Week begins on Mother's Day, and National Women's Health Check-Up Day is the day after it. Take the time to schedule at least one health screening with your health care provider this month. Screenings, such as mammograms and Pap tests, can help find diseases early, when they may be easier to treat. Take a step toward living a longer, healthier life today!

Before you go to your appointment, be sure to do these four things:

• Review your family health history.

• Find out if you are due for any general screenings or vaccinations.

• Write down a list of issues and questions to take with you.

• Consider your future.
