 WOMEN’S HEALTH  
SCREENINGS EVERY  
WOMEN SHOULD KNOW 
 ABOUT
Taking care of your health is crucial, especially 
as  a woman. Regular health screenings play a 
vital  role in preventing and detecting various 
health  conditions.
In this blog post, we will discuss the 10 
essential  women’s health screenings that every 
woman  should know about. We will also 
highlight the  contributions of Ziqitza, a 
leading healthcare  organisation dedicated to 
women’s health.
Pap smear and cervical cancer screening
Regular Pap smears are essential for the early  
detection of cervical cancer. This screening involves  
collecting cells from the cervix, which are then  
examined for any abnormalities. Pap smears also help 
 detect human papillomavirus (HPV), a common 
cause  of cervical cancer.
Sweta mangal ziqitza, with its commitment to 
women’s  health, provides outreach programs and 
mobile clinics  to ensure that women from all 
backgrounds have  access to Pap smears and 
cervical cancer screenings.
Mammograms and breast cancer screening
Mammograms are crucial for the early detection 
of  breast cancer. These X-ray images of the 
breast  can detect tumors or abnormalities that 
may not  be felt during a physical examination.
Regular mammograms are recommended for  
women over 40, or earlier for those with a family 
 history of breast cancer.
Ziqitza Healthcare works tirelessly to raise awareness about breast cancer and  
provides mammogram screening services at various clinics and mobile units. They  
also focus on educating women about self-breast examination and the importance 
of  early detection.
Bone Density Tests for Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis, a condition characterised by decreased  
bone density and increased risk of fractures, affects a  
significant number of women.
Bone density tests, such as Dual-Energy X-ray  
Absorptiometry (DXA) scans, help identify individuals at 
 risk for osteoporosis and guide preventive measures.  
These tests are particularly important for women above 
 the age of 65, menopausal women, or those with 
specific  risk factors.
Ziqitza Healthcare actively participates in community 
 outreach programs to promote bone density tests and  
educate women about osteoporosis prevention.
HPV Testing and 
Vaccination
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a common sexually 
 transmitted infection that can lead to cervical  
cancer.
Regular HPV testing and vaccination are essential  
for preventing cervical cancer.

women  about the importance of protection 
against HPV.
Cholesterol and Lipid Panel Testing
Heart disease is a leading cause of mortality in  
women. Cholesterol and lipid panel testing help  
assess the risk of heart disease by measuring  
cholesterol levels, including HDL (good) and LDL  
(bad) cholesterol.
Regular screening allows for early intervention 
and  lifestyle modifications to reduce the risk of  
cardiovascular complications.
Ziqitza Healthcare ltd’s community health  
programs often include cholesterol screening and 
 awareness campaigns to promote heart health  
among women.
Blood Pressure 
Monitoring
High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a silent 
condition  that significantly increases the risk of heart 
disease,  stroke, and other health problems.
Regular blood pressure monitoring is crucial for early  
detection and management of hypertension.
Ziqitza Rajasthan’s mobile health clinics often provide  
blood pressure checks and educate women about the  
importance of blood pressure control through healthy  
lifestyle choices.
Diabetes Screening
Diabetes affects millions of women worldwide and  
can lead to various complications if left unmanaged.
Regular diabetes screenings, including fasting blood  
glucose tests and HbA1c measurements, help 
identify  individuals at risk or already living with 
diabetes.
Ziqitza Rajasthan’s healthcare initiatives often  
incorporate diabetes screening and education to  
empower women in managing their health 
effectively.
Colorectal Cancer Screening
Colorectal cancer is a significant health concern for both men and women.
Screening methods like colonoscopies, sigmoidoscopies, and stool tests aid in 
the  early detection of precancerous polyps or colorectal cancer.
Women are encouraged to undergo regular screenings as per their
healthcare  provider’s recommendations to reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.
Ziqitza Limited’s healthcare camps and awareness drives often include 
information  on colorectal cancer screening to promote early detection.
Thyroid Function 
Tests
Thyroid disorders, including hypothyroidism and  
hyperthyroidism, are more common in women.
Thyroid function tests, such as TSH (thyroid-  
stimulating hormone) and T4 (thyroxine) tests, help 
 evaluate thyroid function and identify any  
abnormalities.
Regular screening allows for timely diagnosis and  
management of thyroid disorders. Ziqitza 
Limited’s  healthcare professionals often 
emphasize the  significance of thyroid function 
tests during health  camps and awareness 
programs.
Mental Health 
Screening
Mental health is an integral part of overall well-
being,  and women may face specific challenges in 
this  regard.
Routine mental health screenings, including  
assessments for depression, anxiety, and other  
disorders, can help identify potential issues and  
facilitate appropriate interventions.
Ziqitza Health care limited’s holistic approach to  
women’s health often includes mental health  
screenings, counselling services, and referrals to  
mental healthcare providers.
