Patient's question:
Since September, I have had vaginitis that keeps recurring. I'm worried it might be some other sexually transmitted disease. I'd like to ask, can a gynecologist help confirm what the illness is during a check-up, or do I need to go to another department for testing?Doctor's answer:
A gynecological examination is a very common procedure, primarily used to check the condition of the vagina, cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, surrounding tissues, and the inner wall of the pelvic cavity. Its main purpose is to make early diagnoses, prevention, and early treatment of certain gynecological diseases, and it should be able to detect them.
