Women’s Health
Women's Health refers to comprehensive women’s health care as well as health issues that are unique to women, including:
- Pregnancy (McDonald Army Health Center does not provide pregnancy care at our facility. Please discuss your best care options with your primary care provider)
- Menopause
- Conditions of the Female Organs
Be sure to get early and regular prenatal care to ensure you have a healthy pregnancy. You should also get recommended breast cancer, cervical cancer, and bone density screenings.
Our goal is to ensure the health and readiness of all women at every stage of life.
