Prioritize Regular Gynecological Check-Ups
Many women skip annual check-ups, but regular visits to a gynaecologist are essential for early detection and prevention.
Why it matters:
- Identifies issues like fibroids, PCOS, and endometriosis early
- Screens for cervical cancer through Pap smears
- Helps track hormonal and reproductive health
Dr. Dharna’s Tip: “Even if you feel healthy, an annual Gynaecological exam can uncover silent conditions and ensure your long-term well-being.”
-
Understand Your Menstrual Health
Your periods offer insight into your overall reproductive health. Heavy bleeding, irregular cycles, or severe pain during periods or intercourse should never be ignored.
Watch out for:
- Cycles longer than 35 or shorter than 21 days
- Heavy bleeding during your periods
- Bleeding between periods
- Severe cramps during periods affect daily life
Possible causes: Hormonal imbalances, PCOS, thyroid issues, or uterine fibroids.
Pro Tip: Dr. Dharna recommends tracking your cycle using apps and noting any significant changes to share with your gynaecologist.

Maintain a Healthy Reproductive System
A healthy reproductive system supports hormonal balance and fertility. Here’s how to support it:
Do’s:
- Eat a balanced, nutrient-rich diet
- Stay active to maintain a healthy BMI
- Practice safe sex and get tested regularly
Don’ts:

- Don’t ignore signs like unusual vaginal discharge or pelvic pain
Dr. Dharna’s Insight: “Vaginal and reproductive health affects your immunity, fertility, and confidence. Be proactive for your own health.”
