So I have the day off, let me tell you why. TMI time I'm afraid...

I had an appointment for my cervical smear test today.
Too much info? Don't care. It's important.

I want to invent a male smear. Like what they have for an STI test but more intrusive.
I didn't feel violated, I'm not all that bothered about showing my bits to professionals.
But it's not comfortable! Even now I feel a little like I should rearrange, except unlike men, I can't physically do that, lol.

That pretty much covers what they do and how, and what you don't know but should.

I have to say, the worst part is hearing yourself cranked open. Surreal to say the least.

Having had it, however, I have to tell you to do it. I'm not preaching, that's not my style. But it's not scary, strange I grant you! But scary, no. And essential.

Think about what can happen if you don't? Weigh up the basic pro's and con's!

Do yourself a favour, get tested.

Ciao.
