This examination method is easier and clearer than abdominal B-ultrasound. B-ultrasound examination is very convenient and safe. It can effectively examine the pelvis and detect as soon as possible whether a woman's sexual organs are deformed, whether there are inflammatory masses in the pelvis, whether there is blood accumulation in the fallopian tubes, whether there are uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, and endometrial thickness problems.

5. Hysteroscopic surgery

Hysteroscopy is mainly used to diagnose women with changes in the uterine cavity. They should go to the hospital for examination according to the doctor's instructions. The accuracy of this method in diagnosing endometrial cancer can reach more than 94%.

6. Tumor markers

Women over 40 years old should go to the hospital for tumor marker testing according to the doctor's instructions, which can serve as an auxiliary diagnosis basis for ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and endometrial cancer.

7. Check female secretions

The examination of female secretions is mainly to check whether there are fungi, trichomonas, bacteria, etc. in the vagina. The private parts should be cleaned 24 hours in advance, but the vagina cannot be flushed and some eye wash cannot be used, otherwise the microorganisms inside will be eliminated.

Female friends should go to the hospital for a check-up at least once. In addition, they should develop a good lifestyle, ensure adequate sleep, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits, and exercise moderately to improve their physical fitness. Once a physical examination shows any abnormality, you should choose a reliable hospital for treatment and never delay the treatment.
