What is a Pelvic Exam?
Question:
Answers:
its just a routine exam are important for good reproductive health. A woman should have her first exam when she is first thinking about becoming sexually active, or as soon as she becomes sexually active, so the doctors can catch any STD's or pelvic cancer. There are two parts to the exam. The first involves a metal or plastic instrument (theres different sizes) that the practitioner inserts into the vagina. Next the practitioner will take a pap smear. She uses a long cotton tipped swab to collect a sample of the cells in the cervix. It can be a little scary for the first time, so try to relax. Good luck
