Abstract

Microscopic examination of genital swabs performed by the doctor at the appointment is part of a clinical study that allows you to determine the cause of the patient's complaints already during the first visit. With certain skills, the doctor can conduct a study quickly enough while the patient is dressing. In most cases, an etiological diagnosis can be established already during the first visit and adequate treatment can be prescribed. The specificity of the microscopy method in the hands of an experienced doctor reaches 100%. The economic effect of direct microscopy should be noted. The method is low-cost, inexpensive, and saves time for both the doctor and the patient.
