Women’s Health Exams & Screenings

Pelvic Exams
& Pap Tests

Pap Tests – sometimes called Pap Smears – screen for cervical cancer or precancerous cells. Detecting cervical cancer early with a Pap test is your first step to halting the possible development of cervical cancer, and gives you the greatest chance for a cure.

Annual Pap Smears should be started at age 21, and be conducted every year until at least age 65. The PAP Test and HPV testing are typically combined in woman over the age of 29. After age 65 female patients can typically stop Pap screening if they have had three negative Pap Tests in a row, and two negative HPV tests within 10 years.

However, women with certain risk factors, including previous precancerous pap test results, should typically continue having Pap tTests into their 80s.

Breast Exams &
Mammograms

A thorough breast exam enables Dr. Bobbi to identify any changes in breast size, shape, texture or symmetry that could be an indication of a benign or cancerous tumor. Thankfully, state-of-the-art mammograms now provide breast imaging that is much more comfortable than older mammograms. These new, very low-dose x-rays can detect cancer early – even before you feel a lump or have symptoms. Fortunately, with early detection, breast cancer is highly treatable with a very high cure rate.

Women ages 45 to 54 should have a mammogram annually. The general guidelines for women 55 and older suggest mammograms every two years. However, women with risk factors such as family history may need mammograms more frequently.

DEXA Bone Density
Osteoporosis Screening

One out of every two women over the age of 50 will suffer a broken bone in their lifetime due to osteoporosis. And, osteoporosis can be an unseen killer, leading to a rapid decline in health and mobility. For example, 24% percent of hip fracture patients age 50 and older die in the year following their broken hip.

A DEXA bone density scan is an important part of regular health screening for any woman age 65 or older, as well as younger woman who are of menopausal age with certain risk factors. Dr. Bobbi will assess your risk during your annual exam – including heredity, smoking, low body weight, obesity, corticosteroid use, height loss, previous broken bones, and other factors – to help you determine at what age DEXA bone density osteoporosis screening is right for you.
