Today, I had to have a cervical biopsy. The doctor said I would feel slight cramping as she scraped cells from inside the cervix. I guess by "slight cramping" she meant I would shit, throw up, and then pass out. FML

That's the equivalent of a dentist saying, "This won't hurt a bit."

Aside from this being an overused comment that's doomed to be thumbed into oblivion.. How is that even relevant?

I had one, mine didn't hurt at all. It just depends on the person.

Depends on the person. I consider myself to have a high tolerance for pain, but I never in my life want another. I didn't pass out but I sure came close too it.

I didn't have this done, but something some might consider significantly worse. Get an IUD, they said. It doesn't hurt, they said. But in all seriousness, after dealing with the pain and anxiety it is totally worth it.

I had it done too. It was more uncomfortable afterwards. The thought of it is worse than it actually is, but that being said, I still wouldn't wanna go through that again haha.

I had one done too and that didn't happen to me, but pain tolerance is different for everybody.

Same process in the life of a newborn. Hope you feel better soon OP

I can't imagine the doctor was too happy considering where he/she was probably sitting/standing when OP's bowels released :/

I wasn't saying I didn't feel bad for OP- I was just stating that it ALSO probably sucked for the doctor.

Gynos are usually obstetricians as well, can't be any worse than what goes on in the delivering room

I had one of those, and I didn't do all that but it def was more then cramping. hahaha.

I'm sorry but it's stories like these that make me glad I'm a guy

It's stuff like this that makes me wish I was a guy. Being a woman sucks.

Im having one in a few weeks, heres to hoping we both get positive results!

hope this post didn't freak you out. I've had it done, they're not nearly as horrible as this post, which I'm questioning is even true. it's not fun by any means, but it's not horrible pain, mostly just really uncomfortable type of pain. Good luck to you, hope you get the results you're looking for!

I don't think positive results are what you want

this may be a stupid question but can someone explain what a cervical biopsy is

The cervix is between the uterus and the ****** and marks a transition zone for the histological epithelium lining of the reproductive tract from stratified squamous to columnar. Since there is a quick transition in cell types, it's a common site for cancer. Therefore, we do screening tests (PAP, HPV testing) to try and catch these changes quickly. In these tests, we remove cells, by many different procedures, and then examine them under the microscope to look for abnormal changes. In general they do not hurt, but different people have different responses.
