Be Well Recap

Women’s Health:

  • A pap smear only screens for cervical cancer (Watch to find out how to best detect/screen for other cancers such as ovarian and uterine)
  • Endometriosis does not significantly increase your chances of getting endometrial cancer. (Watch to find out at what age is endometriosis most common.)
  • The best way to get your thyroid checked is with a simple blood test. (Watch to find out how your ObGyn can help you manage your thyroid – which is in your throat!)

Pregnancy and the COVID-19 vaccine:

  • Southdale ObGyn supports the recent CDC statement, supported by new data, that encourages pregnant and breastfeeding women to get the COVID-19 vaccination. This new data shows it is safe for mom and baby to receive this vaccine. Learn more about this recommendation and supporting data.
