How do I prevent cervical cancer? One way is to conduct an annual check-up (e.g. pelvic ultrasound). You might be wondering, what is a pelvic ultrasound process like? What are some things that I may need to pay attention to?
There are two distinct pelvic examinations: ultrasound tests and mere diagnosis by registered doctors. Conducting this test is important because you may have fibroids in your uterus and/or ovaries. So in order to monitor your uterus, ovary and bladder condition, pelvic ultrasound is often used. The device essentially emits high-frequency sound waves which penetrate through the skin and obtains data to produce high-quality images. However, don't worry because the medical instrument is not harmful to our bodies and is 100% safe to use!

Do I need to do a pelvic ultrasound?
If you have experienced any of the following, we recommend you to conduct a pelvic ultrasound every half to 1 year.
1. Frequent toilet visits (urine).
2. Can feel abnormal lump(s) in the lower abdominal area.
3. Has high menstrual flows that are often painful.
4. Suffering from uterine fibroids or ovarian cysts.
5. Cannot detect whether the IUD (i.e intrusive birth control devices) is functioning properly or not.
6. Has been 6 months since your last full body check-up.
Are pelvic examinations expensive? (price list)
Compared to tumour marker tests, ultrasound tests are most often preferred because its results are extremely accurate and can be analyzed by the professional and well-train trained doctors on site. Because the ultrasound examination is so promising, this type of check-up is relatively more expensive.
Most standard body check plans are anywhere between a few hundred dollars to a thousand. Although it may sound affordable, it is important to note that such packages do not include ultrasound tests. This is because conducting such screening on a specific body part alone already costs approximately $1000+. This is why if you want to choose a pelvic ultrasound examination, we recommend you to select a body screening plan that is $2000-$3000 (ultrasound included, of course).
