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. Is colposcopy a surgical procedure?Doctor's answer:
Colposcopy is the use of a colposcope to magnify the mucosa of the cervix, vagina, and vulva by a certain number of times under illumination, allowing observation of epithelial and vascular changes that are not visible to the naked eye.Painful menstruation is divided into primary and secondary types. The former is functional and is common in adolescents, unmarried, and married women without children. It generally subsides or disappears after childbirth. The latter is often secondary to gynecological conditions such as pelvic inflammatory disease or adenomyosis. It is recommended that you visit a hospital for ultrasound examinations of the uterine appendages to determine the type of painful menstruation.
