Ek hoor die storie van \u2019n jong vrou wat vir die eerste keer moes gaan vir \u2019n ginekologiese ondersoek. Sy was so skaam dat sy haar sonbril gedurende die ondersoek opgehou het.<\/p>\n
Om \u2019n ginekoloog of huisdokter te besoek vir \u2019n papsmeer of borsondersoek, is vir die meeste vroue nie aangenaam nie. Baie voel bang, skaam, gespanne, onseker en selfs uitgelewer.<\/p>\n
En tog is dit een van die belangrikste afsprake wat \u2019n vrou kan maak! Nie net wanneer daar probleme is nie, maar om dit te voorkom, of betyds vas te vat. Vroue is wonderlik geskape, met die besondere vermo\u00eb om geboorte te kan skenk. Soms kom daar fout en dan is kundige hulp noodsaaklik.<\/p>\n
Hormone is nou eenmaal die aspek wat gereeld vroue se lewens bemoei-lik. As dit nie ongereelde menstruasie en knoppe is nie, is dit warm gloede, massa toename of buierigheid. Vir alles is daar hulp as dit betyds behandel word. Elke vrou wat al vir \u2019n mammogram was, weet hoe ongemaklik dit is. Tog meen talle medici dat vroue in meer as negentig persent van die tyd s\u00e9lf knoppe in hulle borste opspoor.<\/p>\n
Nou, tydens Augustus wat ook Vrouemaand is, bied \u2019n apteek-kettinggroep (Dischem) \u2019n spesiale diens aan as deel van \u2019n veldtog om vrouegesondheid te bevorder. Hier doen professionele verpleegkundiges \u2019n papsmeer en borsondersoek. <\/p>\n
\u201cOns spoor dikwels vroegtydig probleme op. Ons dien ook die Human Papiloma Virus inenting toe wat servikale kanker voorkom,\u201d s\u00ea suster Ria Rudolph. Sy doen die borsondersoek op \u2019n besondere manier: met \u2019n infrarooi borslig. Dis ongeveer die grootte van \u2019n kleinerige flits wat om die bors beweeg word. Dit maak die weefsel soort van deurskynend en al die are is duidelik sigbaar. In- dien daar fout is sal dit duidelik \u2019n swart merk wys.<\/p>\n
Di\u00e9 apparaat is ook te koop by die apteek vir selfondersoek. \u201cDit neem beslis nie die plek van \u2019n mammogram nie, maar is \u2019n goeie siftings-proses,\u201d s\u00ea Rudolph.<\/p>\n
Vriend Cronj\u00e9 Beukes s\u00ea hy waar-deer sy vrou se stiptelikheid om na haar vrouegesondheid om te sien. \u201cDis verntwoordelik, net soos dit ook die geval vir mans is,\u201d s\u00ea hy. <\/p>\n
\u201cOns moedig vroue aan om \u2019n af- spraak te maak vir die ondersoeke, of om selfs net op te daag,\u201d verduidelik Rudolph. Laat staan gerus die sonbril . . . s\u00f3 \u2019n gereelde ondersoek gee baie gemoedsrus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
