A member asked:
Does either a colposcopy or biopsy hurt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A little: Colposcopy may cause a little discomfort associated with insertion of a speculum. Biopsy may be associated with some pain depending on your sensitivity. Please discuss your concerns with the doctor who will be performing the procedure so that s/he may take proper steps to reduce discomfort.
