Well-woman care consists of cervical cancer and STD screenings. Here at Morning Star Women's Health and Birth Center, general health concerns are addressed and referrals are made when necessary to providers that best suit your need. We teach self-breast exams and strive to educate women on a variety of gynecologic issues including PMS, endometriosis, breast cancer awareness, STD prevention and treatment, menopause and healthy diet and lifestyle.
For women seeking non-hormonal methods of birth control, we are pleased to offer various methods of family planning. Natural family planning involves becoming aware of your body's fertility cycle. Basal body temperature, cervical mucous test and saliva and urine testing methods are explained. We also fit diaphragms and cervical caps for women preferring this type of barrier method for birth control. Fittings can be done at your six-week exam along with your Pap test, or anytime as long as you are not menstruating.
