I got an infection after doing a vaginal ultrasound.

The so-called vaginal ultrasound is the abbreviation of vaginal B-ultrasound, also called intracavitary B-ultrasound, which means placing the B-ultrasound probe inside the vagina or rectum for ultrasonic examination and diagnosis. It is more suitable for pelvic organ tissues in small-cap stocks. The advantage is that the examination can be more realistic and clear, and the results are more accurate. Of course, such examination must be carried out in a regular hospital to avoid heterologous infection.

Precautions for pregnant women to do vaginal ultrasound

1. Check the time

It is generally recommended to perform B-ultrasound vaginal examination three to seven days after the menstrual period ends, which can effectively avoid gynecological infections. If you want to monitor the follicles through B-ultrasound vaginal examination, it is recommended to start B-ultrasound vaginal examination on the 3rd day after the menstruation ends, and perform follicle monitoring every two days.

2. Applicable people

B-ultrasound vaginal examination is not suitable for every woman. For example, those who have no sex life are not suitable for B-ultrasound vaginal examination, otherwise it will cause damage to the hymen. For example, it is not recommended to use B-ultrasound vaginal examination for people with vaginal bleeding, large pelvic masses, pregnant women, etc. Except for the above-mentioned people, basically everyone is suitable for B-ultrasound vaginal examination.

3. Preparation

Before doing a B-ultrasound vaginal examination, you need to do the following preparations: First, refrain from sexual intercourse the day before the examination to avoid affecting the examination results. Second, pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva, otherwise it is easy to bring dirt into the vagina, leading to nosocomial infection. Third, you need to empty your urine when doing a B-ultrasound vaginal examination, otherwise it will affect the examination results. So, you should urinate before the examination.

When is the best time to do vaginal ultrasound?

1. When is the best time for women to do vaginal ultrasound? It depends on the purpose of the examination. Because the purpose of the examination is different, the time of vaginal ultrasound will also vary. For example, if you want to check whether the condition of the uterine appendages is normal and the thickness of the endometrium, it is best to do it 2-3 days after the menstruation is over.

2. If you want to know whether ovulation is normal, you should do it after the ovulation period begins. If the menstrual cycle is 28 days, you should choose to start on the 10th day of menstruation to understand the situation of the dominant follicle, and then decide when to do the next transvaginal ultrasound based on the size of the dominant follicle. The interval can be 1, 2, or 3 days. The closer to the ovulation day, the more frequently you should do it. At that time, you should do it once a day until ovulation is confirmed. If you want to get pregnant, you should arrange sexual intercourse around the ovulation date, which can significantly increase the chances of pregnancy.
