Romania compulsury exams

I had that in Romania in the 1980's when they tried to increase the number of children born that all adult women under 40 with less than 4 children had to have an internal every month by law. Doctors even went to offices and examined every young woman internally. Also all contraception was banned. Does anyone know if this is true?

I also remember reading about this many years ago. About doctors being sent to factories, offices, schools etc to conduct pelvic exams. And of course Romania was a communist country at that time, so no one dared to question the authorities. I specifically remember reading that the exams were very embarrassing for the women. The heads of these factories etc would most certainly have been men. I often wondered if they got observe their female employees being examined.

I suppose it would have been embarassing - all of your fellow workers would have known that some dr had just had you stripped down and looked and felt between your legs...

I wonder if anyone has written stories on these forced comp[any Gyn exams. wonderful material. all male staff and employers

Mandatory monthly gynecological exams, that does not sound nice at all!

Hi i happen to be from romania .my mom told me stories about some pelvic exams done at some large factories .the poor women were told to strip naked in a office and stand there till they were examined in another room.and this was like every 2-3 months .this happened in the large factories but if you had higher education you were kind of safe.my mom didn't had the procedure done and many others also.

In the eighties, I used to travel a lot in Eastern European countries for work and I heard a lot of stories about these exams. I was told Tthey also took place in universities. The idea was to promote childbirth to have a more powerful Romania. A woman found pregnant was given special medical care and would be punished if she got an abortion. Romanian women used to go to Hungary or East Germany to get pills and condoms, which were forbiden in their country.

Did those women have to be fully naked for those gyn exams back then?

I know this was Communist Romania under Ceaucescu but even so women should have had the choice as to whether to have kids or not.
