With Mother's Day approaching, the greatest gift mothers want is health. Before caring for others, we must also love ourselves. FemWell, in collaboration with AXA, had organized a Mother's Day themed webinar for AXA members, featuring Dr. Leung Yuk-Luen, an emergency medicine specialist, who will discuss the health challenges faced by women of different ages. The session will also include a series of women's health tips and a quiz with prizes. Here are some key takeaways:
• Even those who are underweight can have lipid metabolism disorders, leading to elevated blood lipids. Individuals with a family history of hyperlipidemia are at greater risk.
• Osteoporosis often shows no symptoms until a fracture or collapse of one or more vertebrae occurs.
• Regular breast checks can detect signs of breast cancer before any symptoms appear; with early treatment, the chance of recovery is about 80%.
• Thyroid diseases are more common in women, especially among those aged 30 to 50, who are considered a high-risk group.
• To maintain the effects of a ketogenic diet, it is essential to maintain certain dietary and “533” exercise habits.
