What are the dangers of vaginal color Doppler ultrasound?

Color ultrasound can be used to check a person's physical health status. Most color ultrasounds are done on the abdomen. There are also special cases where vaginal color ultrasound must be done. Vaginal color ultrasound naturally inevitably comes into contact with the vagina, so it is easy for bacteria to take the opportunity to enter the vagina and cause infection, but it basically does not touch the cervix. You just need to pay more attention to the hygiene of the vulva after the operation and change your underwear frequently. Let's take a look at the dangers of vaginal color ultrasound.

Transvaginal ultrasound examination is harmless under normal circumstances, but it should not be performed during menstruation or when vaginitis has not been completely cured, as it may aggravate the symptoms of infection. If you need to do an ultrasound examination of the uterine adnexa when vaginitis has not been completely cured, you can choose to do a transabdominal uterine B-ultrasound or color ultrasound examination. You need to hold your urine before this examination.

Vaginal color ultrasound is very safe and has no harm. It will not hurt your body. You may feel a little discomfort after the procedure, but it will be relieved after 24 hours. You should strengthen personal hygiene, change your underwear frequently, expose your underwear to the sun, wear loose and breathable cotton underwear, wash your vulva every night to keep the perineum clean, drink plenty of water, and eat less fried and spicy foods.

There is a possibility that the cervix may be touched during vaginal color Doppler ultrasound. You should pay attention to personal hygiene, keep the vulva clean, and go to the hospital to check the condition of your cervix every 2 months. This is an invasive examination and is prone to infection. Improper operation of vaginal color ultrasound may also cause harm. However, it will not harm the uterus. It uses ultrasound to detect, not the probe directly touching the uterus, so don't worry.

The so-called transvaginal color ultrasound refers to transvaginal color ultrasound. At this time, the transvaginal ultrasound probe will be covered with a disposable condom, and then coated with coupling agent, and inserted from the vaginal opening to examine the specific conditions of the cervix, uterus and appendages. Vaginal ultrasound is often used to monitor the growth and development of female ovarian follicles. Because it is closest to the appendages, the examination is clearer and more accurate. However, vaginal ultrasound also has certain hazards. Often due to the coupling agent, it may cause vaginal flora imbalance and induce vaginitis. It may also touch the internal os of the cervix and cause ascending bacterial infection leading to pelvic inflammatory disease.
