Women’s health care at age 20 or 30 can be different than at menopause and beyond. North Natomas Medical Center, Inc. customizes your women’s health care to your age and your body’s specific needs.
As you enter menopause, you may need hormone replacement therapy or other menopause management strategies to offset estrogen loss and minimize symptoms. Menopause can cause bones to thin, so it’s important to check for osteoporosis through a bone scan starting at age 65.
Depending on the results of your last few Pap smears, you might be able to discontinue the test at age 65.
