1 Remember that this is the doctorâs job to perform pap smears. 2  They will have seen a whole lot of vaginas before so they will not be fussed about seeing yours.And believe me, they wonât care about what underwear you have on or your grooming habits either. The doctor (or nurse) will expect this if itâs your very first pap smear, and theyâll explain to you what theyâre going to do so you know whatâs going on. 2  To make yourself more comfortable, Iâd suggest wash just before you go, and wear underwear and clothes that are easy to remove.
During the Pap smear. A Pap smear is performed in your doctor's office and takes only a few minutes. You may be asked to undress completely or only from the waist down. You'll lie down on your back on an exam table with your knees bent. Your heels rest in supports called stirrups. Your doctor will gently insert an instrument called a speculum into your vagina. The speculum holds the walls of your vagina apart so that your doctor can easily see your cervix.
