Presenter: Hannah Graham, MD
Host Organization: National Down Syndrome Society
Description: In this webinar, Dr. Graham provides an overview of NDSS' newest guide, the Primary Care Provider’s Guide to Women’s Health and Down Syndrome, discusses similarities and differences for women with Down syndrome when it comes to their health care needs, and highlights key strategies when providing care. Topics covered include menstruation, PMS, HPV vaccines, cancer screening, pelvic exams, birth control, and menopause. While this resource is designed for primary care providers, we strongly encourage family members and caregivers to watch this webinar to gain familiarity with the resource, the topics covered, and learn how to effectively communicate its benefits to their loved one's providers.
