Can I have a physical examination right after my period?

Physical examination is an indispensable part of our life. It is a must whether we are in school or at work. First of all, physical examination can let you know your current physical condition, secondly, it can also improve your work and study efficiency. More importantly, through physical examination, you can find out whether you have infectious diseases, so that you can take preventive measures in time when necessary. So, can I have a physical examination right after my period?

You can have a routine physical examination after your menstruation is completely over, which will not affect the examination results.

In addition to paying attention to the physical examination time, you should also pay attention to the following matters to ensure the accuracy of the examination results:

1. Before the physical examination, you should pay attention to cleaning the oral cavity, nasal cavity and external auditory canal. Uncleanliness can easily lead to the misdiagnosis of some diseases and can also make doctors feel that their patients do not respect them.

2. Pay attention to keeping blood pressure stable. If you walk into the physical examination center with a normal mind, the impact on blood pressure, electrocardiogram and other items will be smaller. The absence of abnormalities in a physical examination does not mean that there is no underlying disease. If symptoms of disease occur, you should seek medical attention promptly.

3. Pay attention to rest the day before the physical examination, avoid strenuous exercise and emotional excitement, and ensure adequate sleep to avoid affecting the results of the physical examination.

4. Do not eat too much greasy, indigestible food and do not drink alcohol. Do not eat canned fruits, drink alcohol or overeat, as this can easily create the illusion of high blood sugar and blood lipid disorders. You need to fast on the morning of the physical examination. Biochemical tests of blood lipids, liver function, etc., as well as B-ultrasound examination of the gallbladder all require fasting.

5. Banned drugs. It is best not to take lipid-lowering drugs, glucose drips, or sulfonamide antibiotics the day before, because they can increase the concentration of uric acid in the blood and are often mistakenly reported as gout positive. Do not take medicines that may damage liver or kidney function. Patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, asthma, etc. should take medication under the guidance of a doctor.
