At Health Care for Women, we’re shining a light on how diabetes uniquely affects women’s health. This month is about more than awareness, it’s about empowering women with knowledge, prevention, and tools for better management.

Women with diabetes face specific challenges, from increased risks during pregnancy to unique factors that demand personalized care. But the good news is, prevention and effective management are within reach.

Prevention matters: A balanced diet, regular exercise, and healthy lifestyle habits can dramatically lower the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.
Managing well: For women already diagnosed, consistent blood sugar monitoring, treatment adherence, and sustainable changes are key to staying healthy.

Your health matters. Let’s work together to prevent, detect, and manage diabetes because when women thrive, families and communities thrive too.

Call us today at (208) 765-1455 to learn more about how we can support your health journey.
