Post subject:  National Women's Health Week 2012

National Women’s Health Week 2012 is May 13-19 and the theme this year is It’s Your Time. Noting that women often place their own needs after those of their family, the federal government’s Office on Women’s Health, which coordinates and promotes National Women’s Health Week, says women should make their own health a priority.

During the week-long observation, women are encouraged to get recommended checkups and screenings (such as Pap tests) and to think about living healthier lifestyles through diet, exercise, avoiding harmful things like smoking, and making sure that mental and emotional health issues aren’t overlooked.

There is even an interactive chart that lets women see which checkups and tests are recommended at every stage of their adult lives: http://www.womenshealth.gov/whw/health- ... /index.cfm.
