You need to get a Dr that you totally trust. I have been having Pap smears for over 25 years and I can honestly say I have never had any pain once. Let the Dr know your fears be open and honest!

Be thankful there is such an examination out there to protect you from uturine cancer. Going to your doctor to have this procedure done is a bonus to you, and "could save your life"! I have had this done for years, and would rather know, that I don't have cancer. Think about it! Many women have died because they never bothered getting a PAP SMEAR. Good Luck! Cocoa

Pap's are not meant to be comfortable. I don't know a single woman that actually likes getting them done. We do them because we have to for our health.
I just close my eyes and take a deep breath. It usually does not take that long.

First, make sure you see a doctor who you're comfortable with. That will take some of the discomfort and awkwardness away. Then just do it. It's not a comfortable thing, but we all have to have it done for our health. At least it's only once a year!

Suck it up, for your health.....It will be very uncomfortable, but it should not be painful. Remember to stay calm, and relax....Think about something pleasant while having the exam. Good luck!

ugh, I feel your pain, I've learned to just breath and stair at the ceiling or close my eyes. I always get myself all worked up about going, and it just doesn't get easy to go.
