Women's Gynecologic Health: Taking Action
September brings the fall season and Gynecologic Awareness Month. As you notice changes in the weather, take note of changes in your gynecologic health. Check your calendar for your last gynecologic visit and make sure you are up-to-date on screenings. Gynecologic cancers start in a woman’s reproductive organs. All women are at risk for gynecologic cancers. When these cancers are found early, treatment is more likely to be effective. CDC is stepping up its efforts to draw awareness to the five main types of gynecologic cancer: cervical, ovarian, uterine, vaginal, and vulvar. Check out and share the newest resources from DCPC’s Inside Knowledge: Get the Facts About Gynecologic Cancer campaign.
