Check-Up

 Regular health check-ups are vital for women and men to live a healthy life and detect potential health problems early.  These periodic checks play a critical role in preventing and treating diseases and improving quality of life.  Let’s examine the basic health screening tests that should be performed regularly for both women and men at appropriate age ranges:

 Check-Up for Women

 1.Gynecological Examination: Women should have regular gynecological examinations starting from the age of 21.  During these examinations, smear tests and pelvic examinations are performed, which helps in the early detection of cervical cancer and other gynecological problems.

 2. Breast Examination and Mammography: Starting from the age of 20, regular breast examinations include women doing breast self-examination.  Additionally, mammography screenings starting from the age of 40 play an important role in the early detection of breast cancer.

 3.Osteoporosis Screening: Postmenopausal women should evaluate their risk of osteoporosis with bone density screenings.  This helps prevent bone fractures and weaknesses by controlling the strength and density of bones.

 Check-Up for Men

 1. Prostate Check: Starting from the age of 50, men should have regular prostate examination and PSA (prostate specific antigen) test against the risk of prostate cancer.  These tests enable early diagnosis of prostate cancer.

 2. Cardiovascular Screening: Heart health is important for men, so regular blood pressure and cholesterol tests should be performed.  Lifestyle adjustments can be made for early diagnosis and prevention of heart diseases.

 3. Diabetes Screening: It is important for men to have regular blood sugar screenings to determine their risk of diabetes.  When diabetes is not controlled, it can cause many serious complications.  As a result, health check-ups for women and men are of great importance in protecting their health and improving their quality of life.  Regular health screening tests provide early diagnosis of diseases and are an important step for a healthy life.  Creating personalized health plans in collaboration with healthcare professionals is the key to a long and healthy life.
