Abstract
Preventive healthcare is essential in improving women’s health outcomes, yet adherence to screening guidelines remains inconsistent, partly due to rapidly evolving recommendations. To address this challenge, this patient-friendly handout was created outlining essential screening guidelines, their purpose, and the appropriate timing based on age and risk factors. This resource was designed to empower individuals to participate actively in their preventive care, highlighting the importance of accessible health information and the role of patient education in bridging gaps in healthcare delivery.
