The key is to carry out routine blood tests, four coagulation tests, routine urine tests, routine leucorrhea tests, five hepatitis B tests, electrocardiogram tests and other examinations. Used to determine whether the patient's body has infectious diseases, inflammation, infection, and the presence of trichomonas and fungi before surgery.

2. What should you pay attention to before hysteroscopic surgery?

1. Hysteroscopic surgery should be performed during the menstrual period, and it is best to perform it 3-7 days after the menstrual period ends.

In short, hysteroscopy, as a new minimally invasive gynecological auxiliary diagnosis and treatment technology, has become the preferred examination method for gynecological intrauterine diseases due to its advantages such as visualization and accuracy. In order to prevent risks, routine blood tests, four coagulation tests, routine leucorrhea tests, etc. should be done before hysteroscopy to avoid causing other symptoms.
