Common women’s health concerns

Reproductive health

During reproductive years — typically spanning adolescence through perimenopause — your health may change in ways that aren’t always predictable. Your OB-GYN can help you recognize shifts, understand symptoms and decide when to seek routine care or address more urgent concerns.

Teens can manage their healthcare online

Starting at age 13, teens can create their own MyChart account to review medical records, schedule appointments, engage in virtual care sessions and more. 

Pregnancy & postpartum

  • Prenatal care, screenings & high-risk support

Planning for pregnancy

If you’re thinking about becoming pregnant, compassionate support can help you feel informed and confident as you take this next step. Novant Health’s expert maternity specialists partner with you to create a personalized preconception plan, from genetic counseling to nutrition and lifestyle guidance.

Perimenopause & menopause

During perimenopause and menopause — often starting in your 40s — you may notice changes like hot flashes, mood shifts and sleep disruption that affect how you feel day to day. At Novant Health, your care team brings together OB-GYNs, primary care providers and specialists to support your changing needs during menopause.

Care may include:

  • Symptom management  
  • Hormone therapy evaluation  
  • Bone health screening & osteoporosis prevention  
  • Weight management & lifestyle support
  • Sleep support
