What are the Advantages of the Knee-Chest Position?
The knee-chest position offers several advantages in gynecological practice:
Enhanced Visibility: Provides a clearer view of the pelvic organs, making it easier to identify abnormalities. Gravity Assistance: The elevated hips help the uterus and other organs to fall forward, improving access. Better Access: Ideal for procedures like IUD insertion where precise access is essential. Symptom Relief: Temporarily alleviates discomfort in conditions such as a prolapsed uterus.
