How to check for adnexitis most accurately

How to check adnexitis most accurately? Adnexitis, I believe many women are aware of this disease. It is one of the common gynecological diseases and the root cause of female fallopian tube blockage. We need to actively treat adnexitis to avoid infertility. So, what clinical examinations can be used to diagnose adnexitis?

Adnexitis is a common disease caused by pathogenic microorganisms invading the reproductive organs and causing infection of the fallopian tubes and ovaries. This disease can occur in both unmarried and married women, and is often accompanied by pelvic connective tissue inflammation in clinical practice. Adnexitis can cause fallopian tube atresia, leading to infertility and inducing other complications.

1. Urinalysis: This test is mainly to determine whether there is any abnormality in the hormone level in the body, and it can also check which type of bacteria is causing it.

2. Examination of secretions: In the examination of acute adnexitis, purulent or homogeneous mucous leucorrhea can be seen, and the adnexal area is often tender and painful, and sometimes there may be inflammatory masses of adhesions of fallopian tubes and ovaries. In the examination of chronic adnexitis, there is tenderness in the lower abdomen, and thickening and tenderness on both sides of the uterus during pelvic examination, and sometimes enlarged and fixed cystic masses can be touched.

3. Abdominal palpation: Checking adnexitis can also be done through abdominal palpation. During a gynecological examination, if you have adnexitis, you will find that the uterus is retroflexed and has poor mobility, and there will also be tenderness. If adnexitis has formed an inflammatory mass, you will feel the mass next to the uterus or behind the uterus during palpation.

4. Ultrasound examination: Generally speaking, there are no abnormal findings in ultrasound examination, unless there is hydrosalpinx or tubal ovarian cysts are formed, in which case ultrasound examination may reveal a mass.

Finally, I would like to remind you that the best time for gynecological examination is 3 days after the end of menstruation. Patients are advised to wash their vulva with clean water before seeing a doctor. Sexual intercourse and vaginal medication should be avoided in the first three days to avoid affecting the test results. In short, the diagnosis and treatment of different diseases have different methods. Patients need to understand and follow the doctor's arrangements. Do not blindly take medication on your own.
