Reproductive department routine examination items
Reproductive health is the cornerstone of men\’s and women\’s health, so the examination items of the reproductive department are very important. When we feel any discomfort in our body, we need to go to the reproductive department for formal examination to ensure our health. This article will introduce the routine examination items in detail from several aspects of the reproductive department.
Blood test
In the reproductive department, blood tests are one of the routine examination items. Such examinations include blood routine, biochemistry, hepatitis B, AIDS, etc. Checking blood can detect physical conditions, guide diet and medication in daily life, and avoid unexpected situations due to health problems.
Blood routine
A blood test is one of the ways to check for anemia, leukemia and other blood diseases. Blood samples are usually taken from a vein in the arm. This examination includes examination of white blood cells, red blood cells, platelets, hemoglobin, etc. This type of examination mainly detects physical health and diseases present in the body.
Biochemical examination
Biochemical examination is to check the content of various proteins, sugars and lipids in the body, and to detect tumor markers in the body. The examination includes liver function, kidney function, sugar, blood lipids and other tests. This type of examination can detect the patient\’s likelihood of developing other diseases and the health status of the body.
Image examination
Imaging examination is a type of non-invasive examination, suitable for examining bones and internal organs. Among them, human CT and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) are the most widely used technologies. Imaging tests can be used to diagnose problems related to deep bones, internal organs, tumors and soft tissues, and to determine a patient\’s level of health.
X-ray examination
X-rays can reveal problems with systems such as bones and respiratory tract, and can also detect gas and fluid in the gastrointestinal tract. X-rays pass through the body tissue and are illuminated on the X-ray film, thereby forming an image to show the physical condition. X-rays are also commonly used to test lung health and for physical exams.
Ultrasound examination
Ultrasound examination transmits sound waves into body tissues and uses the rebound of the sound waves to form images. It is primarily used to assess the structure and function of systems such as pregnancy, liver, gastrointestinal tract, and other abdominal organs. In addition, reproductive organs can also be examined by inserting an ultrasound device into the bladder.
Reproductive organ examination
Reproductive organ examination refers to examination of reproductive organs, including gynecology, andrology, etc. It mainly checks whether the reproductive organs are normal, lumps and other issues.
Cervical cytology test
This is one of the routine gynecological examinations. During this examination, the doctor will obtain some cell samples from the female cervix to clearly understand whether there are abnormal cells, such as cervical cancer. This test requires a detailed analysis of the test results through a manual test – human papillomavirus (HPV) screening.
Prostate examination
Men need to have a prostate exam as a routine check-up to ensure good health. The doctor does a series of tests, such as checking the prostate by feeling it (digital rectal exam), orResponse is detected by prostate specific indicator (PSA). When problems such as prostatitis, prostatic hyperplasia, and prostate cancer occur, such examinations can fully reveal the disease and treatment methods.
Conclusion
Routine reproductive examination items can understand our health status from our physical condition and prevent and detect certain related diseases. Among them, blood tests, imaging tests, reproductive organ tests and other examination items are the basis for ensuring the health of men and women. Although checkups can be uncomfortable, they not only keep us healthy but also prevent disease from developing and worsening.
