婦科檢查不能躲懶

「我仲後生，身體咁健康，點解需要婦科檢查呢？」女性由發育至更年期，體內會出現不同的生理改變，而很多疾病在發病初期均無跡可尋，所以定期進行婦科檢查有其必要性。簡單地說，年輕女性的檢查以柏氏抹片檢查及盆腔超聲波為主，進入中年後，便要多點留意乳房X光檢查。停經後，患上骨質疏鬆的風險亦隨之增加，接受超聲波骨質密度測試，有助了解骨質狀況，防患於未然。定期接受身體檢查，可以及早發現某些潛在的疾病，以及儘快進行適當的治療。對女性而言，子宮頸癌、良性婦科腫瘤（如卵巢囊腫及子宮肌瘤）等，病發初期更毫無徵狀，若於病情較晚期才被發現，有可能影響生育，一般女性踏入25歲後，都應該定期接受婦科檢查。子宮頸細胞檢驗子宮頸癌主要是由人類乳頭瘤狀病毒（HPV）感染引起，性接觸是感染的主要途徑，有調查顯示，就算女性只有一個性伴侶，在有性生活的五年 內，大約也有50%會感染HPV。雖然現時有不少治療子宮頸癌或癌前病變的方法，但仍有可能導致一些後遺症，所以曾有性經驗的女性，都應定期接受子宮頸細 胞檢驗。由於子宮頸癌感染初期，並無明顯病徵，接受子宮頸細胞檢驗（即柏氏抹片檢查）有助確認病症。香港浸信會醫院婦女健康中心駐院婦產科顧問醫生黃凝說：「政府 建議，女性第一、二年應每年接受一次子宮頸細胞檢驗。由於HPV病變速度較慢，踏進第三年，可每隔三年做一次檢查。對於高危一族，如病人長期使用類固醇或 曾經患上子宮頸癌前病變，更有需要每年一次檢查。」
