Why Proactive Care Matters at Every Stage of Life for Women

ATLANTA, GA / ACCESS Newswire / May 15, 2026 / As Women’s Health Month begins, experts say too many women continue to put their own health last, often overlooking early warning signs tied to common conditions ranging from heart disease to hormone-related issues. OB-GYN Dr. LaReesa Ferdinand explains what women should be paying attention to now and why taking a proactive approach to health can make a meaningful difference at every stage of life.

The conversation also serves as a timely reminder for women to prioritize their well-being with practical, everyday habits that can help them stay ahead of potential health concerns. Dr. Ferdinand shares simple, approachable steps women can take to feel more informed, comfortable, and confident about their health.

WHAT DO WOMEN NEED TO KNOW ABOUT GLP-1S

GLP-1s can be a great option for women looking to lose weight, including women navigating hormonal transitions like menopause, when weight gain is common. GoodRx for Weight Loss can help anyone get started. This telemedicine subscription connects with a licensed healthcare provider for a consultation to understand anyone’s needs, review options and, if appropriate, get a prescription for an FDA-approved GLP-1. GoodRx is not insurance but offers industry-leading prices to help make these treatments more accessible. For more information, visit GoodRx.com/WeightLossSupport.
