Patient's question:
Suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable in the lower abdomen, feeling bloated, and my menstrual period was particularly light. The doctor suggested I have an ultrasound to check the condition of the uterine appendages in addition to the uterus. But can I have an ultrasound during my menstrual period or vaginal bleeding?Doctor's answer:
During menstruation or if there are any tears in the vagina, it is recommended to undergo an abdominal ultrasound examination at the hospital for a thorough check. However, vaginal ultrasound examinations cannot be performed at the moment, as they may lead to infections. It is advised to maintain good hygiene. If you experience discomfort again, an abdominal ultrasound examination should be conducted to ensure it does not affect your health. Gynecological diseases pose significant harm to patients, so it is important to seek medical attention promptly upon noticing symptoms. Additionally, pay close attention to dietary issues, focusing on a light and balanced diet. It is hoped that gynecological patients can receive professional treatment.
