Most of the time, your doctor will be able to determine during your pelvic exam if there is anything unusual. On the other hand, the results for a Pap smear usually takes a day or two.
With your results, your doctor may recommend any medication that you might need, additional tests, or even schedule you for a follow-up appointment or treatment.
Key takeaway
A pelvic exam procedure may seem scary at first due to how it is done and the discomfort that it brings. It can bring physical and mental uneasiness, which is why it is best to know everything about the procedure before undergoing the test. Knowing what to do before, during, and after a pelvic exam is helpful for your appointment.
If you feel uncomfortable during the procedure, let your doctor or healthcare provider know. It is also best to communicate and be open with your doctor about your sexual health.
