For women during menstruation, vaginal ultrasound examination cannot be done, mainly because during menstruation, the cervical orifice is in an open state, if vaginal ultrasound examination is performed at this time, it will increase the risk of uterine infection, causing cervicitis, pelvic inflammatory disease and other gynecological diseases. In addition, vaginal hysteroscopy is detected by inserting the probe into the vagina, so it will also cause inaccurate results. For patients who need ultrasound examination, abdominal ultrasound examination is feasible. This examination is safe and effective. It should be noted that during menstruation, attention should be paid to the hygiene and cleanliness of private parts, and sanitary napkins and underwear should be changed frequently. Cold food is prohibited. At the same time, the same room should be prohibited.
