What does vaginal ultrasound check for in women?

The health of the reproductive system is a part that women need to pay great attention to, because the resistance of women's private parts is relatively poor, and menstrual blood and leucorrhea and other secretions often flow out. If you do not pay attention to hygiene, it is likely to cause various gynecological diseases. Vaginal ultrasound is a method of examination for various gynecological diseases. In addition, pregnant women can also use vaginal ultrasound to determine their pregnancy status. So, what does a vaginal ultrasound check for women?

1. Vaginal ultrasound is suitable for observing pelvic organs in the small pelvis. In other words, it can be used to observe female uterine tumors, ovarian cysts, determine early pregnancy or even ectopic pregnancy. In addition, some inflammations can also be diagnosed with the help of vaginal ultrasound. Because the symptoms of inflammation may appear on the surface of the vagina or pelvic organs.
