Hampyeong County in Jeollanam-do is working to improve women's health through a customized health management service called "Mobile Healthcare," which targets women of all ages.

According to the county on October 14, a total of about 60 women are currently participating in the mobile healthcare program. This includes 2 women in their 20s, 13 women in their 30s, 16 women in their 40s who are of childbearing age, as well as 29 women in their 50s and 60s. The program has been recognized for establishing a comprehensive women's health management system that covers the entire life cycle, including women before and after pregnancy.

Participants regularly monitor five major health risk factors-blood pressure, blood sugar, waist circumference, triglycerides, and HDL cholesterol-using mobile devices. They also receive one-on-one consultations and feedback from experts to help them improve their lifestyle habits. This support contributes to creating a safe pregnancy and healthy childbirth environment.

The program has also proven effective in preventing preeclampsia, which can occur in older mothers. Through regular blood pressure monitoring and data-driven personalized management via mobile healthcare, the program helps detect health issues early and prevent potential risks for expectant mothers.

County Governor Lee Sangik stated, "Women's health determines the future of families and the local community," and added, "Hampyeong County will prioritize the health of women of childbearing age and take the lead in making our city a great place to have and raise children."
