What gynecological examination items are available for adolescent girls?
Disease description:
A friend mentioned that women should have a routine medical checkup once a year. However, my daughter is still young—only 15 years old. If she goes to the hospital for a gynecological examination, what tests are needed?

The gynecological examination for adolescent girls includes an external genital examination, primarily observing the development of the external genitalia, any skin abnormalities, and the distribution of pubic hair. An internal vaginal examination is also required to check for infections caused by pathogens such as trichomonas, chlamydia, mycoplasma, and fungi. Additionally, examinations of the cervix, uterus, fallopian tubes, and ovaries are necessary to rule out possible lesions.
