Health Screening Schedule for Women With Eternity Medicine Institute

Dubai, August 4, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Warding off potential health problems and the onset of certain diseases before they become too serious is not only smart, it’s a strategy that can keep an individual healthy with the promise of long life.

“A routine and regular health screening will help keep a woman's health in check and will also provide the opportunity to discuss certain health concerns which are a part of your annual routine physical examination,” says a physician with the Eternity Medicine Institute in Dubai. "Being informed about your health can give you peace of mind.”

Women often take on many roles at home and at work, such as mom, full-time employee, caregiver, household CEO and daughter.  They’ve got multi-tasking down to a science.  Although they sometimes don't have time for themselves, there are some basics every woman should consider to stay healthy. It's important to put these health screenings and checkups first.

The health screening center in Dubai recommends the following, according to each stage of a women's life.
