After examining patients with BSCKI. Ha Bich Van noticed an abnormal foreign body in the vagina. Through exchange and confiding with the patient, Doctor Van learned that the cause was the patient’s self-insertion of foreign bodies into the genitals since the 5th grade, now the child is a 6th grader.

Because of the long time the fabric has eaten into the anterior wall of the vagina, it causes pain and bleeding, making it difficult to remove for young patients. In this situation, Doctor Van discussed with the family the method of emotionless removal of the foreign body.

Through the incident on BSCKI. Ha Bich Van recommends that parents with children in puberty and adolescence need to spend a lot of time with their children to talk, talk, and explain to their children about sex and changes in the body when they are young. puberty.

Help your child relieve anxiety, panic when alone facing changes that he doesn’t know why.

Children over 12 years old must wear diapers to … prevent self masturbation

Talking to an Infonet reporter, Obstetrician and Gynecologist Le Thi Kim Dung was not surprised when she heard about this case. Because according to the doctor, it is “very normal” for people to be curious to discover their own emotions.

“It was nothing special. So if children do not learn enough about protecting their genitals and reproductive health adequately, all mistakes can happen.

This situation does not only happen to girls, but also to boys. In fact, there are boys who insert scary foreign objects into the anus to masturbate or put foreign bodies into the urethra, which can easily lead to dangers”, Dr. Dung emphasized.

Back to the case of a 12-year-old girl who discovered a foreign body, even though she did not examine it directly, Dr. Dung said that it is likely that the baby has already reached puberty. The need for sex has begun to kick in, curiosity makes the child not know where to feel the most, so it can lead to a situation like it happened (stuffing something in there).

Through situations like these, Dr. Dung believes that adults need to be frank about sexual and reproductive health issues for children.

“This is immediately expressed in the language of ‘sex education’ – which is not enough to raise the issue that is quite prominent today. This phrase that cannot be dropped is a mistake. That is, I do not look at the problem directly from beginning to end. Instead of replacing this phrase with sexual and reproductive health education, it would be more direct and straight to the point,” emphasized Dr. Dung.

Because according to Dr. Dung, when we directly address such content, children will learn and know which jobs are dangerous and which are not. For example, the other 12-year-old girl, assuming she does not insert a foreign object into her body, but has sex early…then it is much more dangerous if she does not know how to use protection measures.

“Until now, there is no document that regulates how old a child can be to have sex. So at any age, children are curious to learn and discover. And funny situations still happen”, Dr. Dung emphasized.

Most children reach puberty (9 years old girls, 10-11 years old boys) when they begin to be curious about gender. But in fact, there are also clips of children in kindergartens having similar behaviors as sex has happened….

That shows that we need to have cognitive changes right from adults. Accordingly, it is necessary to teach children all problems of reproductive and sexual health from an early age so that children know how to prevent and avoid possible risks”, Dr. Dung emphasized.
