Then an external inspection of the vulva and surrounding areas is made by the doctor, followed by internal inspection, in which a speculum is used to spread apart the sides of the vagina so that your cervix is exposed. A digital
examination (using the fingers) is made of the walls of the vagina and rectum and the neighboring tissue areas,in a search for
possible growths or other abnormal conditions. And a sample of cells and secretions from the cervix is taken for a Pap smear test.

health picture also should be discussed in some detail. Any important information That might be omitted earlier
