Dr. Hope Ricciotti, Clinical Director of Obstetrics & Gynecology at Dimock Community Health Center in Roxbury, recently offered a local Boston TV station some excellent tips about protecting reproductive health. If you're planning a family soon (or even later) this list is well worth a look. Ricciotti recommends:
- Get an HPV vaccine (if you’re under 27).
- Get screened for sexually transmitted infections (STIs) regularly.
- Get Pap tests according to the recommended schedule.
- Use safe and effective contraception.
- Practice good diet and exercise habits.
