What is a gynecologic exploration?
In the various specialties of medicine scans trying to determine the status of the patient and obtain data to guide the diagnosis of their condition, so for example when a person has feelings of fatigue, the doctor auscultation the lungs to see how assignment or location of their main problem.

When women go to the gynecologist for any problem with your genital tract, the specialist must undergo an examination that is recognition of the external genitalia, vagina and neck of the womb or uterus.

To explore the vagina and neck of the womb, it is necessary to introduce an instrument called a speculum, is a small gadget in the form of a duck beak, which opened into the vagina reveals the cervix; of This can be seen from a macroscopic point of view and see the possible damage to the vaginal wall.

The second part of the gynecological exploration is the introduction of the index and middle fingers into the vagina of women, placing the other hand in the lower abdomen, this will explore the uterus and ovaries, receiving information about the type, location and size, as well as their consistency and their mobility.

Why is this different from any other scan?
The main problem with this exploration is the embarrassment and shame that the patient says. This feeling is natural and understandable, given the position we have to take the women and the intimate nature of exploration. However, the best advice I can give you is to make the effort to relax, much less bother you because each of the interventions that we have previously explained.

This, as you can imagine, has its logical explanation, because when a woman contracts the muscles of the pelvis also do, which causes the locking of the speculum on the walls of the vagina, resulting in more discomfort.

In the case of older women, postmenopausal, or who do not routinely maintain sexual discomfort may be greater by the lack of elasticity presented in this case, the optional lubricant on the speculum used for a better slip into the vagina.

So the best we can imagine the woman who goes to the gynecologist, it is submitted to a normal and necessary to explore it, and that the physician is a valuable exploration. For its part, the physician should not forget what they might mean for the patient.
