Health screenings are preventive medical tests designed to detect potential health problems in their early stages, even before symptoms appear. These assessments play a fundamental role in maintaining good health, as they allow for timely measures to prevent complications or treat diseases more effectively.

When should you get a health screening?
The frequency and type of screening depend on factors such as age, sex, family medical history, and lifestyle. For example:

1- Starting at age 20, people typically monitor their cholesterol and blood pressure regularly.

2- At age 50, many medical guidelines recommend starting colonoscopies.
