What are some examples of chronic health conditions?
There are hundreds of chronic health conditions. These include things you’re used to seeing in the news, like diabetes, AIDS, arthritis and asthma, to name just a few. But they also encompass conditions that aren’t as easily diagnosed or labeled, like autoimmune disease, eating disorders, mental illness, reproductive issues and alcoholism. A chronic condition may loom large, affecting every aspect of a woman’s life, or it may be something relatively small and easily manageable. If you’ve got it and it’s sticking with you, it’s chronic.
