During a sexual health check-up, the gynecologist will typically perform the following:
- Medical History Review: Discussing any symptoms, sexual activity, and medical history. - Physical Examination: This may include a pelvic exam to check for abnormalities. - Screening Tests: Tests for Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, HPV, and HIV. - Pap Smear: A test to screen for cervical cancer. - Breast Examination: Checking for lumps or other abnormalities in the breasts.
