Some female friends need to undergo a vaginal discharge test to diagnose problems such as genital pain and itching. So, is it effective to check vaginal discharge after sexual intercourse?
Firstly, the examination of vaginal discharge is based on the cleanliness, pH value, and microbiological examination of the vagina to help determine whether there are any abnormal phenomena in a female friend's vaginal discharge. Abnormal vaginal discharge can affect a woman's normal life and also have a certain impact on the success or failure of later pregnancy. Therefore, routine examination of vaginal discharge is important for female friends.
Secondly, when conducting a vaginal discharge test, it is best not to do it after sexual intercourse to avoid affecting the test results. As residual semen in the vagina can mix with vaginal discharge, the extracted sample may contain other abnormal cells. Therefore, checking vaginal discharge after sexual intercourse may affect the test results.
Furthermore, when female friends undergo routine vaginal discharge examination, they should pay attention to avoiding vaginal flushing and medication in the first three days. They should also avoid sexual intercourse in the first three days to avoid affecting the accuracy of the examination results. It is recommended to wash the external genitalia with water appropriately the day before the examination.
Finally, before checking for vaginal discharge, female friends should also pay attention to keeping warm and getting enough rest to avoid excessive fatigue. They should drink plenty of warm water and avoid spicy, raw, and cold foods.
