Pap smears are definitely not fun. That’s for sure.
I wonder how this is progressing .
Those things look evil.
Those things are so painful. I was thrilled when they changed the recommendation to every 5 years instead of every year.
I find it more painful when they scratch around at your cervix with the scratch device.
I’m very happy they don’t use those for prostate exams. But man that thing looks scary.
I’m allergic to just about every lube, so the worst part for me is the itching, burning nightmare that lasts for days afterwards. I put off my gyn exam regularly for this reason. I had one a year and a half ago though, I think. My tests had come back negative enough times in a row that I don’t need one for a little bit. Yay!
I won’t have any pelvic done. Last time I went I told obgyn that she had to stop, 1 I can’t have a speculum cause my cervix is prolapse, so nowhere it can go anyway, and it wasn’t a pap test it was to see if my broken tailbone popped thru. She put her whole hand up with a shove, I screamed and kicked her. My husband got her away from me and I ran out pulling up my parents thru the waiting room. She told me I was being a baby, even though she felt my cervix prolapsed and partially out. Heartless ■■■■■. That was 5 years ago. I’ll take my HPV and suffer, hope my lady parts fall out or anything. I am not going back to be abused again. I don’t get to pick the doctor with my insurance, it’s whoever’s has an opening. ■■■■ em.
I’m done having kids, it can fall out.
