What Is a Well-Woman Exam?

A well-woman exam is an essential annual preventive visit designed to protect and monitor a woman’s overall health. More than a routine appointment, it provides a dedicated opportunity to assess breast health, cervical health, pelvic wellness, and evolving age-related risks.

At our Jupiter, Florida practice, Susan B. Poncy, M.D., board-certified OB/GYN with over 30 years of experience, provides comprehensive well-woman exams tailored to each patient’s age, medical history, and individual health goals.

What to Expect During Your Annual Well-Woman Visit

A well-woman exam with Dr. Poncy may include:

• Comprehensive medical history review
• Breast examination
• Pelvic examination
• Pap smear and HPV testing when indicated
• Review of menstrual cycles or post-menopausal status
• Contraception or fertility discussion
• Screening recommendations based on age and risk factors
• The visit is structured to allow time for questions and individualized guidance, ensuring patients feel informed and supported.

Why Annual Well-Woman Exams Are Important

Preventive women’s healthcare plays a critical role in early detection and long-term wellness. Regular exams help identify cervical changes, breast abnormalities, pelvic concerns, and hormonal shifts before symptoms become significant.

For women over 30, well-woman visits also allow for coordination of:

• Mammography and advanced breast imaging
• Bone density testing
• Cardiovascular and metabolic screening
• Evaluation of perimenopause and menopause symptoms
• Early identification often leads to simpler treatment options and improved outcomes.
