When i went in for my annual gynecologist appointment, the nurse pract asked if i wear my seatbelt. why did she ask that?

Annual exam content: When a woman goes in to have her "annual exam" the healthcare provider is supposed to review many general health topics such as safety behaviors, for example the use of seat belts, as well as things like health habits such as smoking, diet and exercise.

Reduce accidents: One of the most common causes of death in a young women is accidents. NPs are trained to ask these questions to help you remember to practice habits that reduce your chance of death from an accident. Best wishes!
