Do I need to prepare for a well-woman exam?

Here are some of the subjects you might wish to discuss.
- Trying to have a baby

What happens during a well-woman exam?
Dr. Greenspan begins by taking a complete medical history. You’ll talk about your past medical conditions or surgeries, medications you’re currently taking, and any diseases that run in your family.
Dr. Greenspan typically performs a physical exam, which generally includes:
- A Pap smear
- Pelvic exam
- Breast exam
The Pap smear looks for signs of cervical cancer. Depending on your age, Dr. Greenspan refers you to a specialist for a mammogram.
