Also known as a pap test, a pap smear is a cervical screening procedure for cervical cancer. The check entails testing for the presence of abnormal cells – cancerous or pre-cancerous cells – in the cervix. Additionally, other forms of cervical abnormalities can also be detected during this pap smear test.
Depending on your age, you will have a pelvic exam and a pap smear, breast examination, immunizations which depend on individual cases, blood and urine tests, pelvic ultrasound, as well as an overall discussion on leading and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Kegel exercises provide a solution for urinary incontinence, recovery after childbirth, and improvement in the quality of a woman’s life. They do this by contracting, strengthening, and toning the pelvic floor muscles, which as result treats urinary incontinence and discomfort.
