Overseasidol.com — Chinese actress Vicky Chen recently opened up about her first gynecological examination experience during a podcast appearance, drawing public attention to issues of patient comfort and sensitivity in women’s healthcare.
During the discussion, Vicky revealed that she underwent her first exam at the age of around 15 or 16 after developing an infection.
The condition occurred while filming a scene that required her to jump into a polluted lake, leading her to seek medical attention at a small local clinic.
However, the experience left her feeling deeply uncomfortable.
She recalled being questioned by a doctor about whether she had engaged in sexual activity, which she firmly denied, explaining that her condition was purely due to infection.
The line of questioning made her feel upset and misunderstood.
Vicky also described the examination process as rough and distressing, adding to the negative experience.
The lack of sensitivity and care during the procedure made it particularly difficult for her at such a young age.
By sharing her story, she expressed empathy for women who feel embarrassed or anxious about undergoing similar medical exams.
She emphasized the importance of providing a safe, respectful, and private environment for patients to ensure their comfort.
