Introduction: Some people say that "fear breeds rumors", and people always hold the attitude of "believing in it rather than believing in it", so no matter how absurd it seems, there are always people who believe it. If someone tells you in a circle of friends every day that "×× causes cancer" and ×× may be a precursor to cancer ",you will believe it sooner or later. In order to crack down on online rumors and spread scientific and healthy ideas, Cha Health.com chose "Gynecological Rumor Crusher: Do you understand it?" Professor Ding Xilai, former deputy chief physician of Peking Union Medical College Hospital and now chairman of the American Gynecological Expert Committee. ",to help you stay away from the six common rumors of gynecology.
Does checking the health net _ corset belt help postpartum recovery?
Rumor: Body-shaping clothes can help thin waist shape!
Truth: bras are harmful. Try not to use them.
In recent years, in order to avoid postpartum body deformation, or to lose weight as soon as possible to restore the appearance before pregnancy, many women will choose to use abdominal straps or gauze to tighten the abdominal shaping, but the disadvantages of doing so are great.
In fact, if you think about it, you will know that what is in a person's stomach is fixed. If the abdomen is tied tightly, it will inevitably increase the tension of the pelvic floor and make the loose pelvic floor worse.
First of all, long-term use of corset will hinder blood circulation below the abdomen, causing abdominal discomfort. Secondly, the corset belt will also affect the natural opening and closing of the lungs, resulting in insufficient oxygen supply to the body, headache, dizziness, poor breathing and other discomfort. Thirdly, girding the waist will also affect the normal peristalsis of the intestine, thus affecting the digestive function. The most important corset will increase the risk of uterine prolapse and urinary incontinence because of the increase of abdominal pressure.
In fact, abdominal shaping depends more on abdominal muscle strength than external constraints. It is suggested that pelvic floor muscles should be restored first after operation, and then abdominal muscles should be exercised.
Do you need pelvic floor muscle training after caesarean section?
Rumor: Cesarean section after pregnancy will not affect pelvic floor muscles.
Truth: Pregnancy has a certain impact on pelvic floor muscles, and vaginal delivery has aggravated the impact.
The influence of normal abdominal pressure on uterus pushes uterus to sacrum and coccyx; In the second and third trimester of pregnancy, abdominal pressure increases, the waist protrudes forward and the abdomen protrudes forward and downward. When the uterus presses down in the direction of vagina, the pelvic floor muscle strength and fatigue will decrease, the pelvic floor tension and pressure will decrease, and then the ability of different types of muscle fibers will gradually decrease and relax, resulting in symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction. Therefore, increasing the gravity of the uterus in the middle and late pregnancy is a chronic injury to the female pelvic floor itself. Therefore, whether it is a natural delivery or caesarean section, the pelvic floor function of women is damaged to varying degrees during pregnancy, so it is necessary to carry out some pelvic floor muscle repair training. The recovery of postpartum pelvic floor function should follow the principles of gradual, timely and moderate, and perseverance.
Check Health Network _ Does cervical erosion need treatment?
Rumor: Cervical erosion is a serious gynecological disease that needs surgery.
Truth: Cervical erosion is not a disease, so don't worry too much.
It is often sad to see patients come from other places to see cervical erosion and travel all over the country. Why does a "minor illness" that is not a big problem at all become the heart disease of so many people?
Cervical erosion is only an external manifestation, most of which are physiological and only a few are pathological. Physiologically, it is mostly columnar epithelial migration caused by high estrogen level. The level of estrogen in the growing period is high, which is manifested as cervical erosion. After menopause, the estrogen level drops and the cervix is smooth, just like a few "pimples" that need no treatment at all.
Another part of pathology may be the eversion of cervical canal mucosa caused by postpartum cervical laceration, and only a few may be similar manifestations caused by cervical inflammation, cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and even cervical cancer, so it is necessary to treat the primary disease.
The concern about cervical erosion is mainly because many people think that cervical erosion is related to cervical cancer (both of which can cause contact bleeding and sometimes have similar appearance). In addition, a few doctors brag and mislead the general trend because of economic interests, which makes women's psychological pressure too great and becomes a "heart disease". In fact, there is no necessary connection between the two. The real prevention and early detection of cervical cancer mainly depends on regular TCT and human papillomavirus examination.
Check the health network _CA 125. Is it ovarian cancer?
Rumor: Does the increase of CA 125 mean ovarian cancer?
Truth: The increase of CA 125 is related to many factors, not necessarily cancer.
If the tumor marker of ovarian cancer is high, some women will be very nervous when taking blood to check whether they have ovarian cancer. Actually, it is not. In many cases, CA 125 will increase in women, for example, in most patients with adenomyosis. In addition, CA 125 will also increase in many cases, such as ovarian chocolate cyst rupture, peritonitis, liver cirrhosis and so on. Therefore, the increase of CA 125 alone can not determine the location and nature of the disease. Further detailed inspection is recommended.
Check Health Network _ Can you get pregnant in the same room during ovulation?
Rumor: you can only get pregnant in the same room during ovulation.
Truth: Relaxation is more conducive to accelerating pregnancy.
Nowadays, it is often seen that many newlyweds detect ovulation by measuring basal body temperature, ovulation test paper and other methods, guide their roommates and regard themselves as a tool for fertility. My whole life has changed. Personally, it is totally unnecessary for young couples. Planned pregnancy is more likely to lead to tension, and negative emotions such as tension will affect pregnancy. Moreover, demanding sexual life may increase a lot of burdens, make you unable to find feelings, and also affect your family life and happiness. In fact, we can see that around us, especially the elders, many firstborn children are adopted, and the last few children are born by themselves; Some have tried to get pregnant for many years, even failed to do IVF, but after giving up family planning and relaxing, they became pregnant. Many friends around me are pregnant in the same room when they think it is absolutely safe, so I personally think that you should fully enjoy life, and maybe you will get unexpected joy. Moreover, foreign studies believe that boys who can reach orgasm are more likely to have children.
As for the mechanism, it should be extra ovulation, and couples who are newly married or reunited after a long separation are most likely to ovulate extra. The mechanism is that female ovulation is dominated by nerves and endocrine. When the spirit is too excited, nervous, the living environment changes or the physical health changes, ovarian ovulation will be affected, leading to ovulation without ovulation. There is not much research on human beings. My personal understanding is more about stimulating ovulation in many mammals. Ovulation in sexual life is more economical and can reduce the waste of eggs.
If you have a history of infertility, ovulation induction, or getting married and having children when you are old, I also support that measuring ovulation in the same room may increase your chances of having children.
Check Health Net _ Can't you have a baby within six months after a chest X-ray?
Rumor: you can't have children for six months after taking a chest X-ray.
Truth: Taking a chest X-ray has little effect on pregnancy preparation.
For this argument, the first thing to be clear is the concept of perspective and shooting. X-ray is a dynamic observation of lung changes, during which rays are always produced; Chest radiograph is a static image, which is projected on the film after the radiation is released instantly, so the dose received by chest radiograph is much less than that of fluoroscopy. Within 33 days of pregnancy (counting from the last menstruation of pregnant women) is a critical period for external risk factors to affect embryos. During this period, if the embryo receives too much X-ray irradiation, it may miscarry. But if you don't have an abortion, the risk of other fetal problems will not increase significantly. The sensitive period of fetal teratogenesis is from the 33rd day of pregnancy to the end of the 3rd month. Theoretically speaking, pregnant women receiving radiation dose of 5 ~ 15 rad may have fetal malformation. However, the radiation dose of X-ray chest film is very small, one time is 0.00007 rad, and it takes 7 1429 times to exceed the minimum standard of 5 rad. Moreover, the part of chest X-ray irradiation is not the most sensitive abdomen, so it has little effect on pregnancy. Even if you take a chest X-ray in the first trimester, you think the child can be born.
