err, not trying to be that guy, my girlfriend said that gynecology didn’t hurt, and she went to public health care here in brasil, so i think is just lack of competency, and USA health system?
I think you need to talk to more than one girl about that… really depends on the procedure, your sensitivity down there and the competence of the gynaecologist. I’ve been to appointments that were fine and I’ve been there near crying from pain…
Endometriosis is more common than people without vaginas realize and it often goes undiagnosed. My wife was gaslit about the pain of gyno procedures for two whole decades until the a doctor finally diagnosed her. A diagnosis which only came due a tubal ligation procedure forcing the doctors to physically see all the scar tissue inside her.
Yup, my wife has it and it AMAZING how many doctors are ignorant about it. We literally had one doctor tell her she “probably didn’t have that, because Endo is a very complicated disease and blah blah blah”. Nevermind all the symptoms lining up and the fact her GRANDMA HAD IT.
Went to a specialist surgeon focusing on it and he did a quick exam and was like “yep you have it, it felt like you have rocks in your vagina”. It was THAT obvious and yet no other fucking gyno she saw before that point noticed anything! Like doctors, please listen to your lady patients, PLEASE!
