Lesbian health

Lesbian health refers to the physical and mental well-being of women who identify as lesbian. It includes addressing specific health risks and needs, such as mental health issues, sexually transmitted infections, and preventive care. Research shows that lesbian women may face disparities in healthcare access and experience higher rates of certain conditions like depression or substance use. Ensuring comprehensive, respectful care tailored to their experiences helps promote better health outcomes. Open communication with healthcare providers and regular check-ups are important for maintaining overall health and well-being.
