If you’ve ever wondered whether to spend the time (and money) on a women’s full health screening in Singapore, you’re not alone. Many women feel unsure about what’s included, its worth, and how to choose the right package.
In this guide, we’ll explain what a full female medical checkup typically covers, when you should consider getting one, and what to look for in a package—especially if you want it tailored to women’s health.
Whether it’s your first time or overdue for a check-in, we’ll help you make a confident, informed decision.
What Is a Full Health Screening?
A full health screening is a comprehensive assessment that combines physical exams, lab tests, and imaging studies to detect potential health issues before symptoms even appear.
The goal is prevention and early detection. A good screening helps identify risks for chronic illnesses, silent conditions, and age-related changes before they become serious.
Think of it as a deep dive into your body’s internal systems—from how your heart functions to how your hormones behave.
What’s Included in a Women’s Health Screening Package?
The specifics vary by provider, but most packages are structured around the following areas:
General Health Assessments
These form the foundation of most screenings:
- Height, weight, BMI: Detects obesity-related risks
- Blood pressure and heart rate: Early detection of hypertension or arrhythmias
- Full blood count (FBC): Detects anaemia, infections, or immune system abnormalities
- Blood glucose and HbA1c: Screens for diabetes and insulin resistance
- Lipid profile: Evaluates cholesterol levels and risk for heart disease
- Liver and kidney function tests: Monitors organ health
Female-Specific Tests
These give deeper insight into hormonal balance and reproductive health:
- Pap smear & HPV test: Detect precancerous changes and HPV infection
- Pelvic ultrasound: Checks for fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometrial thickness, PCOS
- Breast ultrasound / Mammogram: Detects early signs of breast cancer or cysts
- Hormone panel (FSH, LH, AMH, Estradiol, TSH, Prolactin):
- FSH/LH: Indicates ovulatory function
- AMH: Reflects ovarian reserve
- Estradiol: Measures estrogen status, linked to fertility and menopause
- TSH: Screens for thyroid disorders, which affect metabolism and cycles
- Prolactin: Elevated levels can suppress ovulation and signal pituitary issues
Lifestyle-Linked & Advanced Tests
- Bone density scan (DEXA): For osteoporosis risk in women over 40 or postmenopause
- Cancer markers:
- CA125 (ovarian cancer)
- CEA (colorectal and other cancers)
- AFP (liver cancer)
- Vitamin D and B12: Common deficiencies among women in Asia, affecting mood and immunity
- Electrocardiogram (ECG): Checks for heart rhythm abnormalities

How to Choose the Right Screening Package
Ask yourself:
- What are my current health goals (e.g., fertility, weight loss, menopause)?
- Do I have any family history of cancer, diabetes, or heart disease?
- Am I feeling any new or vague symptoms (e.g., fatigue, irregular cycles)?
- What’s my budget—and does my company offer support?
💡 Choose packages including pre- and post-consultations, so you aren’t left to interpret results alone.
