Can you have a gynecological examination when your period comes?

Patient's question:

Our company will arrange an annual physical check-up for us in two days. This is a benefit provided by the company. However, unfortunately, I got my period today. Can I have a gynecological examination during my period?

Doctor's answer:

You currently have your menstrual period, so it is recommended that you do not undergo any gynecological examinations at this time. If women undergo routine gynecological tests at the hospital during their menstrual period, it may lead to repeated errors and potentially cause harm to the body. This could result in recurrent menstrual cramps or irregular periods. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid routine health checks for the time being. Pay attention to hygiene.
