Gynecological Health Management Center

The Gynecological Health Management Center is not a "treatment place" that only needs to be visited when gynecological diseases are diagnosed, but a health service port that covers the entire life cycle of women of all ages - from adolescent aunt disorder treatment, HPV vaccination consultation, to pregnancy preparation guidance in the childbearing age, postpartum repair, to perimenopausal syndrome intervention, early screening of gynecological tumors in the elderly, even if you just feel itchy in your private parts or have unbearable waist and abdominal pain during menstruation, you can come here to find a solution.

I just received a 22-year-old junior girl last week. She couldn't even lift her head when she entered the door. She clutched her schoolbag for a long time and said, "My aunt postponed it for 15 days, and I'm not in love." Before, she was afraid that she would be asked about her privacy when she went to the gynecology department of a general hospital, and she was afraid that people waiting for treatment would look at her strangely, so she delayed her visit for half a month until she read our popular science information before she dared to come. First, she was given six hormone tests and an abdominal ultrasound to rule out organic problems. The final conclusion was that she had an endocrine disorder after staying up all night for 3 months while preparing for the postgraduate exam, drinking two glasses of ice cream every day. I prescribed low-dose progesterone for her for 10 days, and made a schedule to adjust her daily routine and diet. Last week, I checked that her condition was normal. I also made an appointment to schedule the nine-valent HPV vaccine.

This is also the point of controversy for many people about this type of center: If there is no disease or pain, what should you spend the money on?

In the traditional concept, people always associate "gynecological examination" with "indecent private life". Many women even think that if they don't feel uncomfortable, they don't need to have a gynecological examination. This is actually the biggest misunderstanding. The clear conclusion of evidence-based medicine is that starting from the age of 18, women with sexual intercourse should undergo TCT+HPV combined screening every year, and women without sexual intercourse should undergo pelvic ultrasound every 2-3 years after the age of 25. This is the most effective way to screen for cervical cancer and ovarian cancer. Our center conducted nearly 2,000 cases of early screening last year and screened out 12 cases of cervical precancerous lesions. They were all young girls under the age of 30. They usually did not even have symptoms of abnormal leucorrhea or contact bleeding. If they waited for obvious symptoms before going to see a doctor, they would most likely have developed into the invasive cancer stage. The cost of treatment and the prognosis were not even close.

Of course, some people complain that many health management institutions now just ask for a bunch of useless examinations just to generate revenue. This situation does exist, so our center is now divided into two service lines and fully respects the patient's choice:

One is a purely evidence-based Western medicine path. It strictly follows the domestic gynecological diagnosis and treatment guidelines. Corresponding examinations and medications are prescribed only if there are clear abnormal indicators. For example, for endocrine diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome and hyperprolactinemia, basic tests are done first, and then hormone-regulating drugs are prescribed according to individual conditions. No additional unnecessary items are added.

The other is a conditioning path that combines traditional Chinese and Western medicine. It is suitable for patients whose indicators are all normal but who have discomforts such as dysmenorrhea, breast tenderness during menstruation, and ovulation bleeding. We will provide intervention programs such as moxibustion, traditional Chinese medicine fumigation, and pelvic floor muscle rehabilitation training based on their physical constitution. Symptoms can be relieved without taking medicine. Last year, we counted 427 conditioning cases of primary dysmenorrhea, and the effective rate of relief after three months of intervention was 82%.

There is another piece of trivia that many people don’t know: the Gynecological Health Management Center does not only accept women. Now we also receive related consultations from men. The most common ones are about co-treatment of HPV-infected partners, as well as male semen testing and lifestyle intervention before preparing for pregnancy. Last month, there was a couple who had been trying to conceive for 2 years without getting pregnant. The woman had a full set of indicators checked and all were normal. The man thought there was nothing wrong with him at first, so he pulled her over to check and found that the sperm motility was only 28%. He adjusted his daily routine and diet, and supplemented zinc and selenium for 3 months. Just this month he received news that he was pregnant.

Let’s talk about the privacy issue that everyone is most concerned about. There was a 34-year-old patient who was suffering from fungal vaginitis and was treated in a community hospital. There were a lot of people sitting in the waiting area. The doctor asked her directly and loudly, "Does the leucorrhea look like tofu?" She was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a drill, and she did not dare to have a gynecological examination again for the next three years. All our clinics are independent, and no third party will be present during the entire consultation process. All cases are stored encrypted. Even if family members want to retrieve the cases, they must obtain written authorization from the patient, in order to minimize everyone's embarrassment.

I have been working in this industry for almost 11 years, and I have seen too many cases where small problems turned into serious diseases: some girls suffered from dysmenorrhea for 10 years, and were finally found to have endometriosis, which has affected their reproductive function.； Some aunts endured postmenopausal bleeding for half a year, and when they came for a check-up, they already had advanced endometrial cancer. In fact, the purpose of the existence of the Gynecological Health Management Center is, to put it bluntly, to give all women an outlet that does not require hard work or embarrassment. They do not have to wait until they are "sick" before they dare to come. They can come and ask when they are feeling a little uncomfortable. This is better than anything else, nipping problems in the bud.
