Regular vacation means menstruation. Colposcopy can be performed the week before menstruation, and if a cervical biopsy is not required, colposcopy can generally be performed whenever it is not a non-menstrual period.
Colposcopy can be performed at any time except during menstruation. For patients considering the presence of a lesion in the cervix that requires a cervical biopsy under colposcopy, it is generally recommended that colposcopy be performed within 3-7 days of menstrual cleansing.
Postmenopausal women can have colposcopy at any time after cervical screening for abnormalities, but the cervical epithelium of postmenopausal women is often atrophic, which is not conducive to the search for lesions, and gynecologists often recommend that colposcopy be performed after 2-3 weeks of topical vaginal estrogen, and that the medication be discontinued for 2-3 days prior to the examination.
