Patient's question:
I've been feeling a bit uncomfortable in my abdomen recently, and I want to get a gynecological examination. However, I've heard from others that gynecological examinations can be quite troublesome and require many things to be noted. What are the precautions for gynecological examinations?Doctor's answer:
Pay attention to the time for careful inspection. After the menstrual period, there should be 3-7 days. In this way, vaginal discharge will never affect the results. For gynecological examinations, empty the bladder; for liver, gallbladder, and pancreas ultrasound, it is generally recommended to fast; before health check-ups, rest well; women cannot undergo gynecological health check-ups during their menstrual period; when taking X-rays, metal objects cannot be worn on the body, otherwise they will block the X-rays and easily lead to misdiagnosis; it is recommended to draw blood before eating breakfast.
