Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can I have a gynecological examination during my menstrual period?Doctor's answer:
During the menstrual period, gynecological examinations are not allowed. During the menstrual period, gynecological examinations should not be performed. This is because during the menstrual period, the cervix is slightly open, and after the endometrium is shed, it forms a wound. The vagina has a small amount of menstrual blood, and combined with the lower systemic and local resistance during the period, if a vaginal examination is performed at this time, it is easy to cause infection. It is recommended that you wait until after your period has ended before going for the examination.
