About diagnosis, treatment and recovery
Why is a women’s health check-up handled as a separate package?
Because women’s health carries female-specific priorities such as breast, gynecological, hormonal, and bone health, these areas are gathered into a single organized screening package.
At what age and how often should I have women’s health screening?
Screening content and frequency are planned individually according to your age, life stage, family history, and risk factors.
What is the difference between mammography and breast ultrasound, and which one suits me?
Mammography is a digital X-ray while ultrasound is radiation-free soft-tissue imaging; the suitable method is determined by your age and breast structure.
What are the smear and HPV tests, and how often should they be repeated?
A smear examines cervical cells and HPV screens for the virus; the repeat interval is planned according to your previous results and risk status.
Who is bone density (DEXA) measurement for, and why is it important?
DEXA measures bone density to assess osteopenia and osteoporosis risk and is particularly important around menopause.
Which additional assessments are recommended during menopause?
In this period hormonal balance and bone health come to the fore; thyroid, sex hormone, and DEXA assessments are often recommended.
How should I prepare before screening, and does the menstrual period affect results?
Some tests require fasting; for smear and gynecological examinations scheduling outside the menstrual period may be preferred, and preparation details are shared at registration.
Is the screening really completed in a single day, and how long does it take?
Thanks to the organized flow, blood tests, imaging, and examinations are mostly completed the same day without waiting in line.
Is the radiation from mammography harmful, and can it be done during pregnancy?
Digital mammography uses a low dose; in pregnancy your physician evaluates alternative methods, so please inform us of pregnancy in advance.
If a finding emerges during screening, how does the process proceed, and what should I do if I am coming from abroad?
If a finding emerges, swift referral to the relevant specialty is made; for international guests the process is organized with transfer, accommodation, and medical interpreter support.
