The role of family history in your health: what you need to know
A family medical history is a valuable tool in understanding your potential health risks. By knowing the conditions that have affected your close relatives, you can work with your doctor to develop a personalised healthcare plan. This may involve early screenings, lifestyle adjustments, or even genetic testing to reduce the risk of developing diseases such as heart disease, cancer, or diabetes. Recognising patterns in family health can empower you to take proactive steps in protecting your well-being and making informed health decisions.
