- Palpation of the breast and lymphatic drainage pathways
- From the age of 50: Rectal examination and examination for blood in the stool

What to do if you have genital itching or foul-smelling discharge?
Genital itching or foul-smelling discharge are common complaints that affect many people throughout their lives. They can have various, mostly harmless, causes, but should always be taken seriously—especially if they persist, recur, or are accompanied by other symptoms such as pain, burning, or skin changes.
Possible causes:
- Fungal infections (e.g. caused by Candida albicans)
- Bacterial infections (e.g. bacterial vaginosis)
- Infections with sexually transmitted pathogens
- Irritations caused by hygiene products, synthetic underwear or intimate sprays
- Hormonal changes, e.g. during puberty or after birth
- Allergies to detergents, soaps or panty liners
Contraception: How does the pill work? Are there other contraceptive methods?
The birth control pill is one of the best-known hormonal contraceptives. It contains synthetic hormones—usually a combination of estrogen and progestin, or progestin alone—that interfere with the natural cycle. The pill primarily prevents ovulation. It also thickens the mucus in the cervix, making it harder for sperm to penetrate. The lining of the uterus is altered in such a way that a fertilized egg cannot implant.
The pill must be taken at the same time every day to provide reliable protection. Its effectiveness—when used correctly—is over 99%. However, vomiting, diarrhea, or taking certain medications can reduce its effectiveness.
In addition to the pill, there are numerous other methods available that can be chosen depending on your life situation, health conditions and personal preferences:
- Hormonal methods:
- Hormonal IUD: Is inserted into the uterus and releases small amounts of progestin over several years.
- Contraceptive ring: A flexible plastic ring that is inserted into the vagina and releases hormones.
- Contraceptive patch: Is applied to the skin and releases hormones.
- Three-month injection: An injection every three months that prevents the release of eggs.
Are there non-hormonal methods?
Copper IUD:
A small T-shaped device that is inserted into the uterus and lasts for several years. Copper ions impair sperm motility and prevent fertilization.
Copper chain or copper bead ball:
Alternative forms of the copper IUD with similar effects.
Condom:
Barrier method, additional protection against sexually transmitted infections.
Diaphragm:
It is placed over the cervix before sex and prevents sperm from entering.
Natural methods:
Calendar method, temperature method, cervical mucus observation: Observe your own cycle to determine fertile days and avoid sex on those days.
Long-term solutions:
Sterilization: Permanent method for people who are certain that they do not want to have any more children.
What is the morning-after pill? What should I do if I've already ovulated?
If ovulation has already occurred, the effectiveness of the morning-after pill is very limited or no longer effective. The emergency pill can only delay or prevent ovulation, but cannot reverse fertilization or the implantation of a fertilized egg.
If ovulation has already occurred or is uncertain, the copper IUD remains an option for emergency contraception. Details can be found here: https://www.spiraledanach.de/
