Extra questions: what is decent and what is not
During a consultation with a gynecologist, do not hesitate to talk about your intimate life; the doctor is interested in this in connection with the prevention of sexually transmitted diseases. If during an appointment the doctor makes a comment about your personal life (with the exception of disapproving of promiscuous sex life) or lack thereof, do not go to him again. The specialist should not express personal opinions. He is obliged to take the necessary tests and not miss the emerging pathology. Everything else (how old will you get married, when did you start having sex, why don’t you marry your boyfriend) should not be of interest to the gynecologist.
This is where local specialists differ, not for the better. Therefore, women, knowing about this peculiarity of theirs, delay visiting a gynecologist until the last minute.
The situation is completely different in paid medicine. Doctors at private clinics are not as busy as district doctors; they undergo training in capital or foreign centers, so they have the skills to treat patients politely. In addition, they know that they will come to a good doctor again and invite their friends. After all, a competent and friendly gynecologist in our time is valued more than gold.
Which doctor to go to: “good” and “evil” gynecologist
Gynecology is a medical branch that studies diseases of the reproductive system of the fair half of humanity. Any violation or pathology in such an intimate area causes great psychological trauma. That is why it is so important to find a good, and most importantly, “your” doctor who you can trust unconditionally.
Thanks to the development of private medicine, women have a choice: go for a gynecological examination at their local clinic or go to a private clinic. It cannot be said that state medical institutions do not provide qualified care, but the quality of service delivery varies enormously. In general, what kind of personal gynecologist you will have is up to you to decide!
Pay attention to the highlights
Normally, any woman has discharge from the genital tract. If you follow the rules of intimate hygiene, they do not have an unpleasant odor, are transparent or slightly whitish. The amount of normal discharge may vary from woman to woman, but the amount should not cause discomfort. Depending on the phase of the menstrual cycle, their volume and consistency may change, which is not observed, for example, during the use of oral contraceptives. Thus, more abundant discharge can be observed during ovulation in the middle of the menstrual cycle.
Pathological discharge from the genital tract can appear due to various diseases. For example, a curd-like discharge combined with itching and redness indicates the development of thrush. With purulent inflammation of the genital organs, greenish, yellowish discharge with an unpleasant odor may appear. With trichomoniasis, they may become greenish and foamy. The appearance of such changes should be a reason for urgent contact with a specialist.
take care of yourself
First of all, avoid hypothermia. Exposure to low temperatures contributes to a decrease in immunity and can trigger the development of inflammatory diseases. Therefore, do not neglect the advice of mothers and grandmothers, do not sit in the cold, do not wear short dresses in the cold.
Choose underwear made from natural fabrics, such as cotton. In this case, it is worth giving preference to classic models. Thongs and beautiful synthetic underwear can only be worn for a few hours a day. Otherwise, the risk of spread of pathogenic microorganisms from the intestines to the genitourinary tract increases.
Following these simple rules every day will significantly reduce the risk of developing gynecological diseases.
