What are some good pieces advice I could use before going to the gynocologist for a pap smear?

I need to go soon, and I'm very nervous... What should I wear? How should I prepare?What are some good pieces advice I could use before going to the gynocologist for a pap smear?
take an aspirin to help eleviate discomfort. relax. take a shower and wash, but don't use anything like fds or products made for the female genitalia. they are bad for you anyhow. wear what you normally wear. it's not that bad. you can always talk to the nurse while the doctor is performing the procedure and that always helps as well.What are some good pieces advice I could use before going to the gynocologist for a pap smear?
they will ask you to take off your clothes and make you wear a gown. they wil then put ur legs on the stir ups. the gyn will ask you some personal questions. it is done slowly but then you can always feel a bit pain. it is routine and you should not be afraid,
don't worry about it. there is nothing sexy about it at all
I think you sound like this is your first visit and if that is so isn't this a subject you should be talking about with your mother, or another close female relative. it might be an akward conversation but obviously they think you are old enough to go to the gynos. I have two pieces of advice for you, wear socks the stirups and the rooms are always cold and shave.
It's a process that none of us girls like, but it has to be done. Just relax and you'll be fine. It doesn't take that long anyway. Once your done you dont have to return for a year. Thats the good thing.
One very important step: DO NOT have sex or put anything in your vagina for 24-48 hours before your exam. This will throw off your test results. Just relax. A good doctor will explain what he or she is doing step by step. Also, a little post-exam spotting is normal.





Good luck!
take a shower .......nothing more disgusting than a nasty woman!
Just shower before you go. It's like any regular check-up. Stay calm during your exam. And if you're really uncomfortable, tell the doc... the doc will walk you through each procedure step for step to keep you informed on what you're feeling.
The best thing to take with you is a list of questions for the doctor. Stress will make you forget anything you meant to ask. You can ask to have a nurse present (or one may be in there with you as clinic protocol), don't be afraid to tell them that it is your fist visit and that you are nervous. I have had many great nurses hold my hand during uncomfortable visits.





You will do just fine, and it will be over before you know it.
