Female Specialist Tests
The female exam consists of a general physical exam, breast exam, and comprehensive pelvic exam.
During the pelvic exam, the specialist determines the size, shape and position of your reproductive organs. This may include a pelvic ultrasound.
Many doctors do a routine Pap test to rule out cervical cancer and detect infection. Many also test for immunity to rubella (German measles) and will vaccinate you if you are not immune.
This section of Fertility.com contains brief descriptions of the type of tests that may be used to identify the causes of conception problems in females.
