Recommendations for preventive exams vary based on age, family history, and individual risk factors — so the calendar below is just a general overview, not a prescription.
Adolescence and Early Adulthood
Regular gynecological visits usually begin during this period, focusing on guidance, reproductive health, and vaccination, as recommended by a doctor.
Ages 25 to 40
- Periodic gynecological screening exam;
- Blood pressure and metabolic profile assessment;
- Specific prenatal care during pregnancy, when applicable.
From Age 40 Onward
Breast cancer screening exams are usually discussed with a doctor starting in this age range, with frequency determined on a case-by-case basis. Cardiovascular and bone health assessments also tend to become more important as age advances.
At every stage, the safest recommendation is to set your exam schedule together with a healthcare professional, who will take your individual history into account.
