Women’s Health Categories

1. Menstrual Cycle

The menstrual cycle is a key indicator of the regular function of the female reproductive system. Menstrual health is closely linked to overall well-being. A regular and healthy cycle reflects reproductive and hormonal balance, while irregularities may signal underlying health concerns.

2. Birth Control Methods

Birth control methods are used to prevent unintended pregnancies. These include options such as birth control pills, condoms, intrauterine devices (IUDs), contraceptive injections and surgical procedures. Since every woman has unique needs, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional to choose the most suitable method.

3. Pregnancy

Pregnancy is the process during which a baby develops in a woman’s uterus. Proper prenatal care is essential for both maternal and fetal health. This includes healthy nutrition, regular medical check-ups, moderate physical activity and stress management. Many complications during pregnancy can be prevented or treated if detected early.

4. Menopause

Menopause marks the end of a woman’s reproductive years, typically occurring between ages 45 and 55. It involves a natural decline in hormone levels and the cessation of menstruation. Symptoms may include hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings and sleep disturbances. Adopting healthy lifestyle changes, including proper nutrition and regular exercise, can ease the transition through menopause.
