These professionals will ensure that preventative care is given to those in need, including pelvic exams, colonoscopy, mammography, thyroid tests and breast exams. Symptoms of this, including weight gain, may be better managed by those who have the adequate amount of vitamins and minerals in their system. Managing stress, regularly exercising and maintaining a balanced diet will also be of benefit.
