Abstract
The probability to be examined by a gynecologist is less for housewives than for working women. The specific weight of housewives' primary visits in the year concerned was 14.6%. The multiple of their examination during the year is lower than that in all examined females. The total number of recorded genital lesions in housewives (per 100 primary visits) do not differ significantly from the analogous index in all examined females, however, the frequency of recognition of precancer lesions of the genitalia is higher in housewives. This proves the importance of women's diagnostic departments for the prophylaxis of cancer and precancer lseions among nonorganized female population.
