What should I pay attention to when doing cervical tct examination?

Cervical diseases have a very serious impact on women, especially cervical cancer, which is a common type of cancer among women worldwide. Therefore, in order to prevent the occurrence of various cervical diseases, various examinations are usually needed. Among them, cervical TCT examination is a typical one. In order to ensure accuracy, there are many things that need to be paid attention to. So, what should we pay attention to during cervical TCT examination? Let’s learn more about it below.

In TCT testing, clinicians collect cervical cell samples using a special TCT sampler in the usual way. Then, instead of applying the sample directly to a microscope slide, the sampler is placed in a vial containing cell preservation fluid for rinsing, thus obtaining almost all the cell samples. It is of great significance for cervical cancer screening.

There are four main points to note before TCT examination:

First, female physical examinations are generally required to be performed during the non-menstrual period, and the same applies to cervical TCT examinations, which are best done within 3-7 days after the end of menstruation.

Second, the couple should not have sex within two days of the cervical TCT examination to avoid misdiagnosis caused by male semen remaining in the body.

Third, do not flush the vagina the day before the TCT examination, and do not use vaginal suppositories. Vaginal examination should be done after the cervical TCT examination is completed.

Fourth, if you have gynecological inflammation, you should wait until the disease is cured before doing a cervical TCT examination to avoid inaccurate test results.

The above is an introduction to what to pay attention to during cervical TCT examination. I hope it will be helpful for women. In order to ensure the accuracy of cervical TCT examination, women should pay attention to these matters before the examination. In addition, cervical examination requires the support of various advanced equipment. It is best to go to a regular hospital for cervical examination.
