Postpartum Depression Education

Soon-to-be or new moms may experience physical and emotional symptoms such as anxiety, crying, and irritibility. Known as the baby blues, this is common. What isn’t common is for symptoms to last or become more intense. When they do, a woman could have more than just the baby blues; they might have postpartum depression.

One in eight women in the US will experience symptoms of postpartum depression according to CDC. With treatment, moms can get back to feeling like themselves so baby and mom can benefit!

Learn more about postpartum depression, including symptoms and what to do if you have it.

 

Breast and Cervical Cancer Screenings

Monitoring breast and cervical health are crucial to safeguarding a woman’s health, but getting important tests can present a challenge for some women.

The Breast and Cervical Cancer Program (BCCP) provides eligible women aged 40-64 with low- or no-cost breast and cervical cancer screenings and pelvic exams, and pap tests for women ages 21-64.

  • Mammograms
  • Pap tests
  • Assistance with Women’s Health Medicaid applications for women diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer
