Patient's question:
I am planning to go to the hospital tomorrow for a gynecological examination. Hello, what are the precautions for a gynecological examination?Doctor's answer:
You are preparing to go to the hospital tomorrow for a gynecological examination. You are 31 years old, and there are some things to pay attention to. First, it is important to avoid the menstrual period. For a gynecological examination, the vagina needs to be dilated to examine the vaginal cervix. If you are on your period, you should wait until 3 to 7 days after your period ends to go for the examination. If you need a thorough examination of gynecological endocrine aspects, you can also go to the hospital during your period to have blood drawn. It is best to go in the morning on an empty stomach for the blood draw.
