Routine and preventive care

Well-woman appointments address reproductive health, breast health, and pelvic organs. Visits provide an opportunity to discuss periods, contraception, pregnancy, menopause, sexual health, vaginal dryness, painful intercourse, and heavy bleeding. Younger patients’ visits may focus on education rather than a pelvic examination.

Conditions evaluated

The Inspire care team evaluates yeast infections, vaginitis, sexually transmitted infections, endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disease, and polycystic ovary syndrome.

Screening and diagnostic tests

Care may include pelvic and breast examinations, cervical screening with Pap or HPV testing, and sexually transmitted infection testing when indicated or requested. Symptoms may prompt ultrasound, blood tests, or urine testing. Mammogram recommendations take account of age, symptoms, and personal and family history. Discuss an appropriate screening schedule with the team.
