Betsy Seguin, WHNP-C: The Role of a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner

What is a WHNP-C? How do they support women’s health?

A Certified Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner (WHNP-C) is a specialized healthcare professional focusing on supporting women’s health across their lifespan. These advanced practice registered nurses have graduate-level education and certifications emphasizing women’s health care, equipping them to address various needs—from preventive care and family planning to managing gynecological conditions and menopause-related concerns.

What distinguishes a WHNP-C is their holistic approach to care. They consider physical health and emotional and social factors, ensuring that patients receive comprehensive, personalized attention. A WHNP-C is a trusted partner, empowering women with knowledge and tools to make informed decisions about their well-being.

How can a WHNP-C help?

WHNP-Cs are integral to women’s health care, offering services such as:

  • Wellness and Preventive Exams: Routine screenings to promote health and detect issues early.
  • Family Planning and Contraceptive Counseling: Guidance to help women choose the best reproductive health options.
  • Preconception, Prenatal, and Postpartum Care: Support during pregnancy and beyond.
  • Gynecological Concerns: Addressing conditions like pelvic pain, hormonal imbalances, and irregular periods.
  • Menopause Management: Helping women navigate midlife transitions with evidence-based solutions.

Through education and collaboration, WHNP-Cs help women take control of their health at every stage of their journey.
