What is an annual exam? 

Your annual women’s health exam focuses specifically on your reproductive and gynecological well-being. Dr. Lomax adapts each visit to what matters most to you. Some patients come with menstrual concerns, others want to discuss pregnancy planning, and many simply want to stay on top of their reproductive health.

Rather than rushing through a checklist, she takes time to understand your personal health story, discuss any changes you’ve noticed, and address questions you may have been hesitant to ask elsewhere. This personalized approach ensures your care reflects your specific circumstances and health goals.

Why do annual exams matter for women’s health? 

Regular gynecological visits help Dr. Lomax spot potential issues before they develop into serious problems. Many reproductive health conditions, including cervical changes, sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), and hormonal imbalances, show few early symptoms but respond well to early intervention.

These visits also provide you with a trusted healthcare partner who understands women’s health challenges. Whether you need guidance on contraception, support through life transitions, or answers about symptoms that worry you, Dr. Lomax offers evidence-based solutions tailored to your needs.

What happens during my annual visit? 

Dr. Lomax designs each exam around your comfort and concerns. Your visit typically includes:

• Health history discussion and physical examination, including breast and pelvic assessments
• Pap smear and STD screening based on your age and risk factors
• Birth control, fertility, or menopause guidance 
• Family history review and preventive care planning
• Dedicated time for all your questions and concerns

Dr. Lomax believes in treating you as a whole person, not just addressing isolated symptoms. She considers how factors like stress, relationships, and lifestyle impact your reproductive health, offering holistic solutions that fit your life.

How often should I schedule annual exams? 

Most women benefit from annual gynecological exams, though Dr. Lomax may recommend different timing based on your age, health history, or specific conditions that need monitoring.
