“Let’s face it. Being a girl can be rough. From raging hormones pre-puberty -- all the way through hot flashes and night sweats in the 50’s -- good old Mother Nature can sure throw a lot of curve balls along the way, said Kim McCulloch, an OB/GYN at Intermountain Health.
“Young women are often very nervous to visit with an OB/GYN because of a fear they will need to undress and undergo an uncomfortable exam. Most of the time this is unnecessary, and we can just talk about symptoms and come to a treatment plan without any of the anticipated discomfort,” said Dr. McCulloch.“Next is often the fun part, but also can be a difficult time in life if reproductive plans don’t go as anticipated.
In general, prenatal care is all included in one global fee. Check with your insurance plan to see if there are any additional costs. “Hormones are currently the trendiest topic in town! Many women feel like their hormones are “out of whack.” This is a very complex discussion to have with a provider you know and trust. Be cautious about spending too much money on excessive lab work, and remember you are your own best advocate,” said Dr. McCulloch.
