Cervical Health, Made Visible🔍

Ever heard of the DVA test? Direct Visualization with Acetic Acid is a quick, non-invasive screening that helps detect early signs of cervical abnormalities—including precancerous changes and lesions.

A simple swipe of acetic acid (yes, like vinegar!) helps highlight abnormal cells so they can be seen and addressed early.

Early detection saves lives. Stay informed, stay proactive.

What is a Wet Prep Test?
A Wet Prep (or wet mount) test is a simple, quick procedure used to examine vaginal discharge under a microscope. It helps detect infections like yeast, bacterial vaginosis, and trichomoniasis.

Why it matters? Early detection = faster relief + better reproductive health.
Talk to Dr. Ruth if you're experiencing unusual discharge, itching, or odor.

Mammogram vs. Breast Ultrasound: What’s the Difference? 🩺💗

Early detection saves lives! While mammograms use X-rays to spot early signs of breast cancer, breast ultrasounds help evaluate suspicious areas, especially in dense breast tissue.

💡 Key Differences:
✅ Mammograms: Routine screening test, best for early detection
✅ Ultrasounds: Follow-up test for lumps or unclear mammogram results

Your health is your power—stay informed & proactive! 💕
