If you experience any of these symptoms, see a gynecologist.
- Heavy, painful, irregular, or missed menstrual periods
- Bleeding between menstrual periods
- Lower abdominal pain or cramping
- Vaginal irritation, discharge, or painful intercourse
- Bleeding after intercourse
- Lumps, thickening, or tenderness in the breasts
Also see a gynecologist for a yearly checkup even if you have no symptoms. Have a checkup more often if you are at high risk for cervical cancer (see Tip 221).
