Examinations required for gynecological diseases

Many women who have gynecological diseases keep silent about them and only go to the hospital for examination when they have to, especially single women. In fact, gynecological examinations are as normal as eating and sleeping. Here we remind many female friends, especially married women, to go for gynecological examinations regularly so that problems can be discovered and treated early. So what items are required in a gynecological examination? Let’s read on.

1. Routine examination of leucorrhea. Routine examination of leucorrhea can determine whether the female vagina is infected with microbial species, such as bacterial infection, Trichomonas infection, fungal infection, etc. Do not rinse the vagina after taking a shower the day before a routine physical examination, as this will wash away microorganisms and affect the test results.

2. Cervical examination. The key is to check whether there are any abnormalities or diseases in the cervix. In recent years, the cytological liquid-based TCT test has also been added, which is mainly used to detect cervical cancer. In addition, patients with active sexual life should also be checked for HPV virus infection. For women over 30 years old, especially married women, it is recommended to do cervical smear and HPV test once a year in the first 2 years. If the result is negative, the test can be extended to every 2 years.

3. Breast examination. Women should pay more attention to breast health. Women under the age of 40 should have a breast ultrasound examination every 2-3 years, and those over 40 should have a breast X-ray examination once a year, and ultrasound examination can be increased when necessary.

4. Gynecological B-ultrasound examination. B-ultrasound can check many aspects of women's problems, and can detect whether there are any deformities of the internal reproductive organs, whether there are inflammatory masses in the pelvis, whether there are uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, and whether there is blood accumulation in the bilateral fallopian tubes.

After the above introduction, I believe you have a certain understanding of what examinations need to be done for gynecological diseases. The vast majority of gynecological malignancies are discovered during routine physical examinations. It is very important if gynecological diseases can be discovered and treated early. It can even be said that gynecological examinations are the lowest cost in exchange for health. Female friends should not neglect gynecological examinations because they are too painful or shy.
