Preventive gynaecological examination
It consists of the examination of external female genitals in the gynaecological specula, during which a colposcopic examination of the uterine cervix is performed at first (it is, in fact, something like a microscopic examination) and the cytology withdrawal is made (once a year). Cytology is a smear from the external area of the cervix and from the cervical canal. It is a basic examination within the framework of preventing cancer development in this area of the female genitals. Then palpatory examination of the uterine and ovaries follows. In necessary cases the examination through the rectum is added. The physician’s optional possibility is then vaginal or abdominal ultrasound examination.
Vaccination WHICH IS OFFERED BY OUR WARD appears to be another preventive measure for the future. The vaccination developed specifically for women should protect against the aggressive HPV types at most. It is not only for girls who has not started their sexual life yet, but also for all of the women who are sexually active. That is to prevent repeated infection inception and to decrease the probability of cancer development.
