When to have a gynecological examination after menstruation?

Patient's question:

I heard that gynecological examinations need to be done a few days after menstruation, but I don't know the specific time. Hello, how many days after menstruation is the gynecological examination?

Doctor's answer:

You should have a gynecological examination 3 to 7 days after your menstrual period ends. At the age of 20, gynecological examinations are usually avoided during the menstrual period. During menstruation, it is not possible to open the vagina for a detailed examination of the cervix. Therefore, if you need a gynecological examination, the appropriate time is 3 to 7 days after your menstrual period ends. If you have gynecological inflammation, you can have the examination whenever you feel discomfort.
