Question: Do they use a speculum for STD tests.?
Do they use a speculum when they do STD tests for females.? How many swabs do they do in your vagina.? What does it feel like and how long does it take.? Do they need to swab the urethra too.?Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Three swabs, one for tricimonias, one for chlamydia and one for gonoherea, it shouldnt hurt and the whole process should be over in five minutes or so. Just remember it just another body organ to us medical people, although its hard not to be embarrased you dont need to be.
