A member asked:
Can using a vibrator too rough days before pap smear cause the results to be abnormal? if it does, does the cervix heals itself?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You'll be fine: It's easy to distinguish injury from instrumentation (including your enjoying your body) from the precancers that pap smears pick up. Don't worry. Enjoy yourself.
