A few days ago, when Xiao Jiu was surfing a book, he suddenly brushed a post, which was so embarrassing that his scalp was numb. The general content was as follows:
"I must remind my sisters that I must abstain from sex before going to gynecological examination! ! !
I am 28 years old this year. I have a boyfriend who has been in contact for 5 years. Recently, I always feel uncomfortable, so I made an appointment for gynecological examination. I’ve always been a big heart, and I didn’t pay attention to some precautions before gynecological examination.I slept with my boyfriend the night before the examination..
So the most embarrassing thing happened! ! After the cervical smear examination, I was sorting out my clothes when the doctor suddenly told me that it was best to check again next time.Also reminded me to abstain from sex for 3 days before gynecological examination, even if I share the same room, I should be clean..
I paused, and it took me a while to react what she meant. I really died on the spot, as if I were looking for a hole to get into! ! Do any sisters feel the same way as me? I don’t even dare to get the inspection report now, qaq. "
Gynecological examination is very important for all women’s health, but many people may ignore some details, which will ultimately affect the judgment of the examination results. What should women pay attention to before doing gynecological examination?
It’s embarrassing and scary to hear this sentence every time I have a gynecological examination. Sometimes, a seemingly simple gynecological examination may become a "shadow" for life.
Gynecological examination, also known as pelvic examination, covers vulva, vagina, cervix, uterine body and bilateral appendages, and is an important physical examination method for gynecological diseases.
How important is gynecological examination for women’s health? According to the World Health Organization, the incidence of gynecological diseases among women in China ranks first in the world, and about 200,000 women die of gynecological diseases every year.The probability of married women suffering from gynecological diseases is as high as 93.6%. And these can be avoided through regular gynecological examinations every year.
Gynecological examination is so important, but many women are very disgusted. Why? Let’s take a look at the feelings of the witnesses:
- A："I feel like a specimen"During the vaginal examination, several interns surrounded me. "
- B: "There is no curtain between the beds. You can see clearly what you are doing."
- C: "I cried out in pain when I was doing Yin Chao.The doctor said I was melodramatic.Every time I think about it, I really feel devastated. "
Gynecological examination is obviously an important means, but many women avoid it. What makes them unacceptable? Gu Zhongyi, a gynecologist at Shanghai Changhai Hospital, analyzed that for female patients,Gynecological examination is a kind of torture both physically and psychologically..
Physiologically, doctors need to use instruments to go deep into the vagina, which will make people feel uncomfortable.
Psychologically, in front of strangers, my legs are wide open and my privacy is unstable. All the examination actions can’t be observed by patients.Only through the doctor’s reaction and physical feedback.This makes many women feel shy, uneasy and anxious.
Besides,The poor experience of female gynecological treatment is also one of the reasons.. Doctors tend to focus on the treatment itself and ignore the emotional problems of patients. Therefore, it is difficult for women to have a physical examination in such a stressful mood as gynecological physical examination, and it is difficult to produce a good experience.
Although gynecological examination faces two major physical and psychological difficulties, some examinations are very necessary for all women regardless of whether they have sex or not.
1, vaginal discharge examination
Vaginal inflammation is a common gynecological disease in women. Doctors can use a cotton swab to obtain vaginal secretions for laboratory examination.
2. Tumor markers
The test is very simple, that is, by drawing blood. By looking at the value of tumor marker CA125, we can help to find out whether there are endometriosis, adenomyosis, pelvic inflammatory disease and ovarian tumors.
3. Gynecological B-ultrasound
It can help to know the thickness of endometrium, whether there is abnormal echo in uterine cavity and whether there is abnormal echo in myometrium.
For women who have no sexual experience, they can inform the doctor in advance before doing gynecological examination.This can greatly avoid invasive inspection..
Dr. Peng Xin from Longhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine reminded that,It is best to abstain from sex the day before gynecological examination, otherwise it will have an impact on gynecological examination items (cervical smear, vaginal examination, etc.)It will also lead to a temporary increase in sex hormones such as prolactin.
In addition to abstinence, gynecological physical examination should also make these preparations:
1. Prepare for personal hygiene.You can clean the vulva, but don’t clean it too much.It is best not to use scented shower gel to cover up the smell of secretions.
2. Before inspection,It is best not to use vaginal drugs.Drug residue may affect the doctor’s judgment of secretion.
3、It is best to choose clothes that are easy to put on and take off.B-ultrasound, chest X-ray and ECG examination need to be undressed.
4, to explain to the doctorHave you ever had a sexual life?.
During the examination, the patient has the right to ask the doctor to stop the examination immediately, and once he feels unwell, he should boldly say no. If the examination is arranged by a male doctor, the patient has the right to ask a third female nurse or doctor to accompany him to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding.
Gynecological examination is an important means to find physical abnormalities, so girls should not be afraid. There is no need to be ashamed of doing things that care for their bodies. Only by relaxing their mentality and cooperating with doctors can their health be further improved.
