During physical examinations of healthy women, a higher incidence of female breast disease, vaginitis, pelvic inflammatory disease and cervical disease was found. This phenomenon deserves high attention. With the accelerated pace of modern life, excessive social pressure and women’s own special physiological structure, various gynecological diseases often attack women’s health. 2009, the Ministry of Health organized experts to prepare the “Technical Guide for the Prevention and Treatment of Common Diseases in Women”, which has listed cervical cancer, breast cancer and reproductive tract infections as the three most common diseases in women. If gynecological diseases are not detected in time, delayed diagnosis or improper treatment methods can seriously affect the physical and mental health of patients, and even malignant lesions may occur.
Therefore, Zhang Rongling calls for women to have regular health checkups to detect diseases early so as not to delay treatment.

Health checkups are used to understand the health status of the examinees and to clarify the presence of abnormal signs and further analyze the nature of these abnormal signs based on the results of ultrasound, radiology, electrocardiogram, blood and urine and stool examinations. Some abnormal signs are physiological variations and can be reviewed regularly; some abnormal signs may be risk factors for diseases and need to be intervened and corrected through health promotion; while some signs are diagnostic basis for diseases and need to be further examined and diagnosed. For female friends, there are also some special tests set up specifically for women. Regular medical checkups can achieve early detection, early diagnosis and early treatment of diseases.

High-risk tumor in women II: Cervical cancer
The best screening program: testing HPV + TCT
In 1995, domestic and foreign experts obtained a lot of evidence and proposed that cervical cancer is an infectious disease, mainly HPV (papillomavirus) infection, making cervical cancer the only cancer with a clear etiology among all human cancer lesions at present.
Friendly advice: women who have had sex for more than three years or have sexual intercourse at the age of 21 or above are the target of screening.
