That's a part of a standard exam. Depending on the doctor you have you can barely notice it's done or it can sting. Or you can be allergic to the lube or whatever else is used by the procedure and then it thoroughly sucks.

@CrazyMusicLover Allergic reaction is also another concern

@TessDun I had never had an issue with it until the last time I had an exam. I'm not sure how to deal with it next time. If I should bring my own lube or what..?

@CrazyMusicLover Maybe you can bring your own or better consult with the doc. Overall the procedure was tolerable right?

@TessDun I had it done many times because that's the only way I could and can get BCP. Sometimes I barely felt anything, other times it stung or it felt like the doctor took much more time than needed.
