Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is health screening?
Health screening involves a series of tests and examinations to identify health conditions at an early stage, even if you feel well and have no symptoms. Early detection allows for timely management of potential health concerns.
Why should I have regular health screenings?
Regular health screenings help identify risk factors and detect conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, and high cholesterol before symptoms develop. Early detection allows for timely treatment, reducing the likelihood of complications.
At what age should I start health screening?
The recommended age for health screenings depends on individual risk factors and family history. In general, adults may consider starting regular screenings in their 20s or 30s. Consulting a healthcare provider can help determine the right timing.
How often should I undergo health screening?
The frequency of health screenings depends on factors such as age, gender, medical history, and risk level. For example, adults over 40 may be advised to have screenings every one to two years. Your doctor can provide recommendations based on your health profile.

Standard health screening packages often include:

Additional tests, such as mammograms, Pap smears, or colonoscopies, may be recommended based on age, gender, and risk factors.
