Complete pelvic examination is performed. During the speculum examination, the vagina should be inspected thoroughly, including visualization of the entire circumference and the fornices by moving the position of the speculum. Any abnormal areas or masses should be biopsied. The bimanual examination should include palpation of the vaginal walls for masses and evaluation for other pelvic masses. The groins should be palpated to assess for enlarged lymph nodes.
