Which is more uncomfortable, vaginal dilator or vaginal ultrasound?

Vaginal speculum and vaginal ultrasound are two common gynecological examination methods. Through these examination methods, it is possible to check whether there is any disease in the female vagina, and it can also detect some female cervical diseases. However, both vaginal ultrasound and vaginal speculum are not very comfortable, and both are prone to discomfort. Generally, vaginal speculum may be better than vaginal ultrasound.

What should you pay attention to when doing vaginal ultrasound:

1. Usually it is performed after a routine gynecological examination. The day before a gynecological examination, you should pay attention to rest, avoid strenuous exercise and emotional excitement, and ensure adequate sleep to avoid affecting the results of the physical examination. It is best to take a shower. If you are undergoing a gynecological B-ultrasound, you need to hold your urine. )

2. Avoid sexual intercourse the day before the examination. If you do not use a condom during intercourse, his semen will flow into the extracted biopsy sample, which will make the examination troublesome and embarrassing.

3. Do not perform vaginal washing within three days before the examination, because washing will wash away some potential cancer cells that may only be detected through biopsy.

4. Do not use vaginal medications, such as medications for treating vaginal infections, lubricants or spermicidal creams, because these medications will affect the biopsy samples and cover abnormal cells. In addition, during vaginal and pelvic examinations, doctors may be confused and bewildered.

5. If you have ever had surgery, please bring relevant medical records and information.

6. Women need to urinate completely when undergoing a gynecological examination.

These various painful examinations are essential during pregnancy. We can imagine that for a pregnant woman to give birth is as difficult as Tang Monk having to go through 81 difficulties in his journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures. However, these examinations are indispensable, because only through these complicated examinations can you better understand the baby's condition, discover problems in time, and solve them.

When checking the cervix, using a dilator will not be painful, but there will be a slight feeling of distension.

First of all, relax and don't be too nervous. The vaginitis speculum, also known as the duckbill instrument, is a commonly used tool for vaginal examination. The vaginitis speculum is sterile and has been sterilized under high pressure. When performing vaginitis speculum, the doctor will wear disposable gloves and then slowly and gently place the closed vaginitis speculum.
