WHY DO DOCTORS ASK ABOUT SEX LIFE
“Why do obstetricians-gynecologists ask the patient at what age sexual intercourse began? life?
I suspect that the question is not an idle one. Maybe they are collecting this information for statistics?”
Anna, 20 years old, Moscow
Answered by an obstetrician-gynecologist, head of the antenatal clinic at the Khimki Regional Hospital
Natalya Valerievna GERMAN: “ The doctor’s question about the time of onset of sexual activity (and sometimes the question about the number of partners is added to it) is needed to make a decision on the scope of the patient’s examination.
Additional screening programs may be needed to identify various diseases if sexual activity began early or was several sexual partners.
According to the federal protocol, screening for cervical cancer in women begins at age 21. The average age of onset of sexual activity is 18–20 years.
But if it begins early or if there are more than 4 sexual partners before the age of 21, the girl undergoes unscheduled tests for oncology and the presence of sexually transmitted infectious diseases.
According to statistics, early onset of sexual activity, before the age of 16, increases the incidence of cervical cancer by 16 times, and from 16 to 19 years - by 3 times. Diseases of the genital area can be asymptomatic, low-symptomatic, which teenagers and young girls do not pay attention to.”

nWhy do they need to know the number of partners? 10 embarrassing questions to gynecologists that women are looking for on the Internet (we asked them for you)
Is it possible to get pregnant during menstruation and lose your virginity from a tampon - experts said
One of the most scary doctors for women - a gynecologist. Many put off visiting a specialist until the last minute, not wanting to expose themselves to stress (it’s necessary to undress and climb into a chair). this is not an indicator - you can be embarrassed to talk about this at 15 years old, and at 45. We decided to talk to the doctors ourselves, asking them those questions that patients do not dare say out loud and look for answers on the Internet.

It hurts during sex, what to do?
Ultrasound doctor and obstetrician-gynecologist Evgenia Pekareva explains that sensations of discomfort or pain in the area of ​​the external or internal genital organs that occur before, during during or after sexual intercourse is called dyspareunia. The causes of dyspareunia can be psychogenic, symptomatic and situational.

Psychogenic causes manifest themselves in the form of anxiety disorders, phobias and sexual perversions. Symptomatic causes may be associated with malformations of the vagina and vulva, fibrotic hymen. A common cause is inflammatory processes in the vagina of various etiologies and bartholinitis. Pain may appear due to post-operative or post-radiation narrowing of the vagina and due to the presence of condylomatous growths in the perineal area. Pain occurs with dryness in the vagina, with posterior deviation of the uterus, with varicose veins of the small pelvis, with endometriosis, fibroids, cystitis, prolapse of the vaginal walls.

The causes of pain during sexual intercourse can be an incorrectly sized condom or an allergic reaction to it (latex, lubricant, dyes or aromatic substances). The occurrence and severity of symptoms is influenced by sexual technique - position, tempo and rhythm of frictions, depth of penetration, behavior of the sexual partner - insufficient sexual stimulation, coercion, aggressiveness.

Unlike vaginismus, with dyspareunia spasm there are no muscles at the entrance to the vagina. In some patients, dyspareunia is combined with other sexual disorders: decreased libido, impaired sexual arousal, anorgasmia. First, you should rule out health problems, and if that doesn’t help, consult a sexologist.

My menstruation is too heavy
According to obstetrician-gynecologist, endocrinologist and aesthetic gynecologist Evgenia Fedchenko, heavy menstruation (hyperpolymenorrhea) is not the norm. Subsequently, this can lead to anemia and iron deficiency. Large blood loss may be due to problems of vascular origin, poor blood clotting.

Evgenia Pekareva also adds that heavy menstruation with clots lasting more than 7 days is a mandatory reason to see a doctor. The most common reason for such menstruation is endometriosis or uterine fibroids.

What amount of discharge is considered normal?
— 1-2 days before ovulation, clear discharge may appear from the genital tract discharge in the form of egg white, which is associated with the opening of the cervix and the release of the mucus plug (another physiological barrier of a woman to infections). With low acidity in the vagina, whitish discharge from the genital tract may periodically bother you. It is advisable to see a doctor about them, says doctor Evgenia Pekareva.

My labia are too large/ugly
Evgenia Fedchenko says that this is largely a matter of aesthetics, which worries both women who have given birth and young girls who are confident that the shape of their perineum does not correspond to the ideal.

— The shape of the labia can be absolutely any, and this is normal, we are living people . The main thing is that the labia minora are covered by the labia majora. The elasticity of the labia depends on the condition of the body; sagging is explained by protein deficiency. Correction of the shape of the labia can be done using fillers; this is an outpatient procedure, not surgical. Another question is when there are medical indications, for example, a large size of the labia minora - this is discussed individually with a doctor, says the doctor.

Searching for answers to questions on the Internet is a bad idea, it’s better pluck up the courage and ask them to the doctor

Why does the gynecologist ask about the number of partners?
— The doctor asks this question in order to understand whether the risk of contracting sexually transmitted infections is high. Some infections manifest themselves immediately, and the patient seeks help, while some infections are asymptomatic in the first years - HIV, HPV, hepatitis C. The number of partners and methods of contraception affect the risk of contracting such infections, says Evgenia Pekareva.

Is it possible to lose your virginity from a tampon?
Evgenia Pekareva explains that a tampon has no effect on the loss of virginity. It is possible to hit the hymen when removing the tampon, which can be painful and cause a small amount of red blood. The hymen is a ring or flap that extends from the entrance to the vagina to its walls.

Is ultrasound dangerous for pregnant women?
— Today ultrasound is the safest a diagnostic method for any patients, including pregnant women. The only time when it may be undesirable is in a very short period of time - not because it leads to various pathologies, but because the sound wave hits the tissues, and if the fertilized egg is not well attached to the wall of the uterus, then detachments may occur, explains Evgenia Fedchenko.

Is it possible to have unprotected sex 1-2 days before and after menstruation without the risk of getting pregnant?
According to Evgenia Pekareva, women with an irregular menstrual cycle may ovulate occur unpredictably, including before menstruation, so there is a risk of getting pregnant. According to statistics, interrupted sexual intercourse has an effectiveness of no more than 60%. You can get pregnant during menstruation if there was late ovulation.

It smells bad from there - what should you do?
Both experts strongly recommend that in this case you consult a doctor and get tested a smear on the flora, even if the girl is not sexually active. A smear must be taken when changing sexual partners - for major STIs. The cause of the unpleasant odor can be either bacterial vaginosis or a specific sexually transmitted infection.

Can epilation of the intimate area harm women’s health?
— Waxing and sugar hair removal provoke ingrown hairs , which is sometimes accompanied by inflammation and suppuration of the hair follicles. In addition, the absence of hair is the absence of one of the physiological barriers of a woman, which means that disturbances of the vaginal biocenosis may occur more often, explains Evgenia Pekareva.

What else worries women
Evgenia Fedchenko adds a few more problematic points that are shy and exciting for women.

— Many people are concerned about the problem of urine leakage, including young girls. This happens after childbirth or when a woman engages in strenuous sports. The problem of air entering the vagina during physical activity and during sexual intercourse, which is accompanied by unpleasant sounds, also falls into the category of something that is embarrassing to ask, especially among young women. In addition, women are concerned about the leakage of water from the vagina after swimming in the pool or swimming in the sea - this is dangerous for infections, but not everyone will complain about it. All this can be easily corrected,” says the specialist.

In 2008, a gynecologist I knew told me a story.
"Yesterday a patient, a girl, about 20 years old, came in. She outlined the situation that was bothering her. She climbed onto the chair. Well, I’m going to insert a vaginal speculum into her vagina, and then Something prompted me to ask - are you, like, sexually active? And she answered - no. Looked, damn it - and she’s a virgin! Imagine what would have happened if I started introducing a mirror to her and tore everything up?"

The story is 100% true, she told it to me personally, and not heard somewhere.
So the question is very necessary, as it turns out!

[Cat Matroskin.]

You see, all doctors are perverts. They should just laugh. And it’s also a special thrill to anoint your untouched virginity.
If she’s a virgin, they don’t look at her with a mirror, but palpate her anally for bends and tumors. Moreover, 99% of virgins do not have problems with the environment, which is why smears are not taken. Moreover, this is a guarantee (if you are not a drug addict) that you do not have AIDS. Low probability of illnesses from gonorrhea and syphilis, chlamydia.
And that if you get sick as a woman, it is not because of your partner’s uncleanliness, but the reason must be looked for elsewhere.
And if you have a venereal disease (they become infected and in a household way), then a completely different circle of people will be subject to inspection.
