Measuring cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure and weight
High cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity are risk factors for cardiovascular diseases and strokes. Because an elevated cholesterol level and high blood pressure do not show any noticeable symptoms, it is advisable to have you tested regularly. Also with diabetes, the symptoms can be so mild that you do not notice it. This is especially true for type 2 diabetes. Some people only realize that something is wrong when symptoms start to show up due to long-term damage caused by the disease. Then there is already damage and that can hardly be reversed. What is possible is that you can help limit further damage with a healthier lifestyle.
Being overweight also increases the risk of developing the above health problems. You can approach the Lobi Foundation for helping you to determine your values, and together with us or with your doctor you can further monitor your own health situation.
Screening of sexually transmitted diseases
Through vaginal, oral or anal sex, you run the risk of sexually transmitted diseases such as chlamydia, genital herpes, gonorrhea, HIV and trichomonas. Sexually transmitted infections are serious conditions that require treatment. Some, such as HIV, cannot be cured and can be fatal if it is not detected and treated in time. At the Lobi Foundation you can also learn more about sexually transmitted diseases and methods to protect yourself against these disorders.
Preconception advice for a healthy pregnancy
If you are thinking of having a baby, it is not too early to prepare for a healthy pregnancy. Our preconception advice focuses on healthy actions you can do, before and during your pregnancy, to increase the chances of a healthy baby. Just think of the risk of having a baby with an open back or with heart defects. You do not want that for your future baby do you? For some women, it takes several months to prepare their bodies for pregnancy. This may take longer for other women. Even if this is not your first pregnancy, it is important to prepare for a pregnancy that is as healthy as possible. Chlamydia and glucose tests are some of the services that we offer in the context of preconception. You should know that, for example, an untreated Chlamydia could harm your child at birth, sometimes they can even be born blind.
