<p>As the medical director of Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest, I speak with a lot of women about reproductive and sexual health. Whether I am talking to patients at our health centers or community events, I’m often told that having a gynecological health exam is one of the least favorite things a woman must do. So when September comes around, and it is both National Ovarian and Gynecologic Cancer Awareness Month, no one ever seems terribly excited.</p>
