This International Women's Day, we're highlighting an important reality in medicine: some conditions can present differently or are often overlooked in women.

From cardiovascular disease to endometriosis and sleep apnoea, differences in symptoms can contribute to delays in recognition and diagnosis.

Greater awareness among both patients and clinicians supports earlier conversations, appropriate investigations, and more informed care.

If something doesn't feel right, it's reasonable to keep asking questions and seek further assessment.

At HealthScreen, we support evidence-based screening and preventative health pathways designed to better understand individual risk profiles.

February is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month. At HealthScreen, we stand alongside the organisations and advocates working to improve outcomes for women across Australia.

Each year, around 1,900 women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer. In many cases, it is detected at an advanced stage, when treatment becomes more complex.

Symptoms can be subtle and easily overlooked. Persistent bloating, pelvic pain, feeling full quickly, or urinary changes should be discussed with your doctor.
Understanding your personal risk also matters, including family history of ovarian, breast or colon cancer, and inherited gene variants such as BRCA1 or BRCA2.

Awareness and informed conversations are the first step.

For those wanting to better understand their individual health risks, speak with your healthcare provider about appropriate options, which may include genetic testing or consider personalised screening pathways like HealthScreen

Low energy.
Low mood.
Unexplained weight changes.

It's easy to attribute these to stress or lifestyle.

But your thyroid plays a central role in regulating how your body uses energy, influencing metabolism, temperature control and mood.

At HealthScreen, thyroid markers are assessed as part of our comprehensive biomarker panels, integrated with imaging and clinical review.

Thyroid markers form part of a comprehensive view of your overall health.

Bowel cancer isn’t just an “older person’s disease” anymore.

Recent data published in JAMA shows colorectal cancer is one of the *only* major cancers with rising mortality in people under 50.

Dr David Badov, our medical director, explains bowel cancer was once considered a disease of older age — but that’s changing.

The important part? Like many cancers, when detected early, colorectal cancer is highly treatable.

Preventative health isn’t about waiting for symptoms. It’s about understanding your risk and acting early.

At HealthScreen, bowel cancer is one of the conditions we screen for, as part of a broader, doctor-led preventative health assessment that also includes targeted MRI, advanced biomarkers, and personalised medical review.

Preventative health isn’t about waiting for symptoms. It’s about understanding your risk — and acting earlier. Learn more at healthscreen.com.au

Preventative health isn’t about doing more tests.

It’s about doing the right ones.

MRI can be a powerful tool, but on its own, it’s only part of the picture.

That’s why HealthScreen starts with a physician consult and builds a tailored, multi-modal assessment around your individual risk profile — combining targeted imaging, biomarkers, ultrasound, and clinical context.

It’s a smarter, more comprehensive approach to preventive health. Learn more at healthscreen.com.au

Preventative health didn't always look like this.
It once meant disconnected tests, scattered appointments, and no single view of your health.

HealthScreen was built to change that, bringing advanced imaging, biomarkers, genetic testing, microbiome testing, and face-to-face medical insight into one coordinated assessment.

Since 2019, preventative health has moved into the mainstream.
Our goal is to make that evolution easier to access.

Most guidelines tell you to start thinking about cardiac screening around age 45.

But the reality is far more complex.

Many people only discover they have heart disease at the moment of a heart attack — often with no symptoms beforehand. And these aren’t always individuals with unhealthy lifestyles. Plenty of fit, seemingly low-risk adults can still have underlying cardiovascular issues that routine check-ups miss.

That’s because some of the strongest predictors of early heart disease go undetected without deeper investigation, including:
Familial Hypercholesterolaemia (FH): A genetic condition that elevates cholesterol from birth.
ApoB: A better measure of the particles that drive plaque formation.
Subclinical plaque: Early artery plaque build-up that won’t appear on standard blood tests.
Age is one factor — but biology, genetics, and early plaque development matter just as much.

Earlier cardiac screening can help identify risks long before symptoms appear, giving you the opportunity to make informed, preventative choices.

Medicine has evolved — but most health checks haven’t.

Today, we can detect many diseases long before symptoms appear. Yet many routine check-ups only identify issues once symptoms appear.

HealthScreen closes that gap with advanced imaging, comprehensive biomarker analysis and a physician led program — all in a single day.

It’s time for your health check to evolve with the future of medicine. Learn more at healthscreen.com.au
