Screening Tests (These are guidelines only. Your primary care provider will personalize the timing and frequency of screening tests for you).
- Blood Pressure. Blood pressure measures the force your organs and blood vessels experience and is a strong predictor of heart attack and stroke risk.
- Cervical Screening. Pap smears and HPV DNA tests can help detect cervical cancer and precancerous cells that may one day develop into cervical cancer. Most guidelines suggest the screening begin at age 21.
- Blood Cholesterol Levels. This simple blood test measures the amount of cholesterol and triglycerides in your blood to inform your risk of plaque buildup in your arteries. If you have a family history of diabetes, heart disease, or other cardiac risk factors, you may need to be screened more often.
- Blood Tests. A simple blood test can be used to screen for diabetes, thyroid disease, liver problems and anemia, depending on family history.
- Sexual Health Checks. Sexual health checks can involve tests (blood or urine) for STIs, sexual dysfunction or discussions about contraception and fertility.
Wellness Checks
- Schedule a wellness check with your primary care provider every year, or as recommended by your provider.
