About National Women’s Checkup Day
National Women’s Checkup Day is celebrated annually on the second Monday in May. The holiday was created to encourage women to prioritize their health and schedule routine visits to see their doctor.
A study conducted by the World Health Organization in 2015 identified cancer, reproductive health, maternal health, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), sexually transmitted infections, violence, mental health, non-communicable diseases, youth, and aging, as the top ten health issues women face across the world.
