After The Ob-Gyn Examination

Pregnancy

Obie Editorial Team

 After the Ob-Gyn and pelvic examination your doctor should discuss the examination findings with you after you are dressed. In the meeting, they should reiterate the importance of a regular self-breast exam, which should be performed one week after the onset of menstruation, or at the same time each month if you are not menstruating. They should also discuss your next clinical exam, mammogram, pelvic exam and Pap smear.
