Must-Have Health Tests for Women at Every Age

Regular health checkups are one of the best ways for women to stay ahead of health concerns, especially around menopause when the risk of certain conditions increases. In a Gen S Life discussion, Dr. Ranjana Dhanu emphasizes the importance of annual screenings to track metabolic changes, detect deficiencies, and ensure early treatment when required.

👉 Physical Investigations and Imaging

• Physical investigation to monitor overall health.

• Mammography and sonography to detect early breast or abdominal changes.

• Pap smear to screen for cervical health.

• Bone density test (if required) to check for osteoporosis risk.

👉 Routine Blood Tests

• HbA1C to track blood sugar and diabetes risk.

• Thyroid profile to identify thyroid imbalances.

• Lipid profile to monitor cholesterol and heart health.

• Kidney profile for renal function.

• Calcium, Vitamin B12, and D3 to detect deficiencies that affect bones, energy, and immunity.

Dr. Dhanu highlights that these investigations help women understand their body’s metabolic shifts and adopt preventive measures before complications arise. By making annual checkups a priority, women can improve longevity and overall quality of life.
