ik they’re not the best but if you’re worried about the pain, mine only felt like a little pinch. i was also really worried i’d have a bad reaction to being seen like that but i talked to my doctor and she was so great about it i wasn’t even nervous. they’re so so important for your health too they’re so worth it!
Convinced me when I was scared 🤷🏻♀️ cancer and dying young scares me more. It’s also really only women with vaginismus who get intense pain like that from the speculum. You can’t feel the actual swab. If you’ve ever had sex or honestly even just used a tampon you’ll know if it’s going to hurt or not
