Did you know that women in the United States make 80 percent of the healthcare decisions for their families, but often neglect their own healthcare needs?
Many women ignore their own health concerns to focus on their children, spouses, elderly parents and other relatives. This procrastination can lead to more serious concerns or complications down the road.
Alzheimer’s disease, autoimmune disorders, chronic pain, lung disease and gastroenterological problems are just a few serious issues more prevalent in women than in men.
As we begin a new year, I strongly encourage women to take some time out of their busy schedules to visit their primary care provider, discuss any concerns you might be having and learn more about what you can be doing to have a happy and healthy year.
