Starting at age 30, a visit to a mammologist for a woman should become mandatory. A visit to a specialist must be done once a year. At home, a woman needs to regularly examine her breasts. It is best to do this in the shower, in the morning or in the evening. Lather the bust so that the fingers gently slid. Then raise one hand up and toss behind the head, fingers of the other hand from all sides to feel the chest, so to examine the second one for the seal. Bust is very useful regular contrast shower.
Pregnant or not pregnant
This is an active reproductive age. He has two main tasks - pregnancy and contraception. Pregnancy should be planned and carefully prepared for it. If within 6-8 months with a regular sexual life without using any contraceptive a woman does not become pregnant, it is necessary to undergo a survey and find out the reasons. A survey of a woman from a gynecologist and mammologist can provoke various causes.
An ordinary visit to a gynecologist during this period includes: gynecological examination, taking a smear for the degree of purity of the vaginal contents, ultrasound of the pelvic organs and PAP test (cytological examination of the cervix to exclude the oncology process). If the results of tests have a suspicion of an infection, its causative agent is additionally detected. A sign of infection can be a woman's complaints about copious prolonged discharge of uncharacteristic color, odor, causing itching and irritation. In this case, you should go through all the necessary examinations of a woman from a gynecologist and mammologist.
Once in 1.5-2 years, it is recommended to undergo an ultrasound examination of the mammary glands. Mammography during this period is carried out only when pathological changes are detected. The second main goal for women at this age is to avoid unwanted pregnancies. When choosing a method of contraception, the advantage is given to hormonal or barrier agents. The opinion of a doctor who knows the features of your health, should be taken into account during the examinations of a woman from a gynecologist and mammologist.
When using hormonal contraceptives, a woman should visit the gynecologist at least once a year. And do V3H, take a smear on the flora and PAP test.
Delicate contraception
This is a very difficult and very important period in the life of a woman. According to the latest data, the age of reproductive age is 4 9 years. Therefore, the main tasks at this stage are contraception, less often pregnancy or treatment of gynecological diseases.
If pregnancy is planned, then thorough preparation is necessary: in addition to the gynecological examination, consult a geneticist.
You can use, after consultation with your doctor, microdose hormonal contraceptives, barrier methods, or (more rarely) intramuscular contraception.
Hormonal contraception is given with extreme caution, because at this age there is a high risk of thrombotic complications from the cardiovascular system, which is partly due to the gradual extinction of ovarian function. From 40-47 years, European women have a premenopausal period, it lasts an average of 4 years. There is a change, both the menstrual cycle itself, and the duration and abundance of bleeding.
Caution
It is during this period that the risk of gynecological diseases increases: endometriosis, uterine myomas, hyperplastic processes (changes in the mucous membrane of the uterus).
A woman must visit at least once every 8 months. The examination includes ultrasound of the pelvic organs, gynecological examination, PAP test.
It is recommended to do a radiographic examination of the mammary glands (mammography) once every 1.5-2 years.
Especially closely monitor the breast should not give birth to women and conduct regular methods of examining a woman from a gynecologist and mammologist. During this period, a woman should pay special attention to herself, to her weight, to the diet. As the risk of developing a number of extragenital diseases - cardiac and vegetative-vascular, obesity - increases. A woman needs to revise the diet - it should be reduced by a third or half compared to the volume that was eaten in 20 years. Preference is given to vegetables, fruits, fish, seafood - sources of protein and fiber. Regular physical activity and sleep are required for at least 8 hours.
At any age - this is very important - a bra must be strictly of its size, in no case "squeeze" the chest in a smaller one. Otherwise, from many years of easy traumatization there are seals, mastopathy. Bust should be taken care of. Every day you need to pour it with cool water or wipe with a towel soaked in cold water. It is necessary to use good creams for the breast, purchased at the pharmacy. And certainly do gymnastics with light dumbbells, so that the muscles of the bust are in good tonus.
Avoid Syndrome
This decade in the life of a woman - the time of the premenopause (the period from the initial decline in the function of the ovaries to the complete cessation of menstruation), menopause and the onset of postmenopause (from the last menstruation to the end of the ovaries, lasts up to 8 years). The climacteric syndrome that accompanies physiological changes develops in the majority (about 80%) of women. It manifests itself in violations of the vegetative-vascular system, in changes in psycho-emotional conditions. Serious concomitant diseases can develop: osteoporosis, urogenital disorders, cardiovascular pathologies.
During this period, it is necessary to consult not only the gynecologist and mammologist, but also the endocrinologist, cardiologist, phlebologist, etc. With a climacteric syndrome of a mild form, a rational diet and exercise are supplemented by phyto-estrogens.
With an average and severe climacteric, hormone replacement therapy (HRT) is prescribed. Its goal - to fill the hormonal function of the ovaries in women experiencing a deficiency of sex hormones. The appointment is possible only after a thorough examination of a gynecologist-endocrinologist.
Duration of HRT application is no more than 5 years. In this case, it is necessary to conduct an individual assessment of the benefits and risk of SIC in each specific case.
A gynecologist prescribes a test that includes a blood coagulation test, a biochemical analysis and a lipid spectrum of the blood, ultrasound of the pelvic organs and the abdominal cavity, and osteodensitometry (investigation of bone density, structure). To mammologu after 50 years should walk as often as prescribed by a gynecologist.
