TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - Vaginal foreign bodies in women in postmenopause and in senium JO - European journal of obstetrics, gynecology, and reproductive biology A1 - Jalůvka, V. A1 - Novak, Andrea SP - 167 EP - 169 VL - 61 IS - 2 N2 - We report on three women, 81, 73 and 69 years of age, in whom foreign bodies had been introduced into the vagina either by the patients themselves or by somebody else. In all cases, medical help was needed to remove the object. In one patient the foreign body had remained within the vagina for 7 years. Only two of the three women admitted that the object had been introduced for sexual stimulation. Some papers are quoted that report on similar events, however, in younger patients. Our observations demonstrate the often problematical sexual situation of many old people.
