Veterans Affairs (VA) Benefits - Women Veterans

Women veterans are eligible for the same Veterans Affairs (VA) benefits as male veterans. However, additional gender-specific services and benefits are available for women veterans, including breast and pelvic examinations and other general reproductive health-care services.

VA provides preventive health care counseling, contraceptive services, menopause management, Pap smears and mammography. Referrals are made for services that VA is unable to provide. Women Veterans' Program Managers are available in a private setting at all VA facilities to assist women veterans seeking treatment and benefits.

VA health-care professionals provide counseling and treatment to help veterans overcome psychological issues resulting from sexual trauma that occurred while serving on active duty, or active duty for training if service was in the National Guard or reserves. Veterans who are not otherwise eligible for VA health care may still receive these services and do not need to enroll. Appropriate care and services are provided for any injury, illness or psychological condition resulting from such trauma.

For additional information, see the Center for Women Veterans homepage at http://www.va.gov/womenvet/.
