Hey guys! I don’t really need advice. Just need some positive thoughts or stories!
I’m 23 and FH and I are both virgins and will be so until after we get married. I’ve never even thought about going to the gyno before, but I know I need to get it out of the way. I’ll be scheduling an appointment somewhere soon.
BUT. I’ve never heard a positive or even okay story about going to the gyno. Today, yet another one of my friends told me about her experience. Apparently it was awful and painful and she cried after her pap smear until she fell asleep after she got back home.
Anyone have positive gyno stories to share? I’m panicking hardcore, and I’m way too emotionally fragile right now for this added stress! Haha. I always felt humiliated and dirty even as a kid when I left the doctor, so the anxiety of the awkwardness for me (I know the doctor sees this all the time) is killing me, and then the idea of the pain is really very very excruciatingly terrifying.
Help!
