Women’s health symptoms aren’t always obvious — and some shouldn’t be ignored.

This Women’s Health Month, Dr. Rebecca Fargason shares five symptoms women should talk to a provider about, including:
• Persistent fatigue
• Shortness of breath or chest pain
• Irregular bleeding
• Breast changes
• Ongoing pelvic pain or bloating

Listening to your body is an important part of preventive care. If something feels off, don’t wait to start the conversation.
