Subject: Boys, North America, 6,8,12yo, mandatory cystoscopies with colonoscopy

Boys, North America, 6,8,12yo, mandatory cystoscopies with colonoscopy

I am male. Both I and my son had cystoscopies, at ages 6,8,12yo, during period 1880-1999, and in the year 2011

The exam took place in North America at a hospital and also at school. I did not know that that special cystoscopy room at school existed, as it was some secret place.


PREPARATIONS

Parents said something liketji to me: The doctor shall look at you down in your stomach.

Had to stop eating several hours before the cystoscopy. Got to a special preparation room. Had to undress completely and go to bed. While in bed given medicine to get very sleepy, but was awake. Had to walk by myself to the exam. Taken vitals like temperature, heart rate and blood pressure.

A doctor came, asked questions and explained. Got a shot to calm down and make sleepy. Was totally naked during exam.

Lay on back with legs in stirrups.


WHAT I REMEMBER FROM THE PROCEDURE

They put a rigid stick-like cystoscope in through the urethra. They pumped up and irrigated bladder with water when looking inside. The scope or a new intrument was inserted even further up towards the kindeys.

They inserted an ultrasond probe in through the vagina to inspect the bladder and genital area.

They inserted an ultrasond probe in through the anus to inspect the bladder and genital area. They inspected the whole colon - full colonoscopy.


ARRANGEMENTS AFTER THE EXAM

Had catheter in the bladder some time after the exam. Had to stay in bed some hours after the exam. Got mediaction for infection.


ABOUT THIS PRACTICE IN THE AREA

All boys in the area has a mandatory cystoscopy before beginning school. All prepuberty boys in the area has a mandatory cystoscopy. It was unneccessary.


COMMENTS

Several communities around the world perform cystoscopies together with explorations through the anus in all boys, and some also in all girl, combined with vaginal exploration.

It looks from the answar that this community already has a long tradition for this practice at boys around 6 and again again in the prepubertal area, since both father and son had it, the son surely in 2011, probably at age 6.

Then it is highly prpbable that the boy will have a new procedure around these times, 2021.

The remark about vaginal inspection is probably about the girls in the area.

The reason for the procedures which is taled very little about to the general public, is to detect development abnormalities, but also for general surveillance of the young population, for research and to use the kids as training objects in education of health professionals.

When the procedures are so extensive like told about here, the risk for the kids themselves are greater than any expected benefit, as I can see it.
