National Women’s Health Week – May 8-14, 2022

Stay active. Eat healthy. And get some sleep! Most important? Start today. The federal government’s Office on Women’s Health created National Women’s Health Week as a way to encourage all women to make the choices which are right for them.

Women have unique health issues such as pregnancy and menopause. And some of the health issues that affect both men and women can touch women differently. Examples include osteoarthritis and urinary tract problems — both of which tend to affect women more.
The observance, which begins each Mother’s Day, runs from May 8 to 15, 2022. National Women’s Health Week also encourages women to consider the factors that influence their mental health, such as managing stress, to ward off anxiety and depression. This year marks the 21st annual event.
