What Should Patients Expect During and After Testing?
The experience varies depending on the type of test. For instance, a Pap smear is a quick and relatively painless procedure, while an ultrasound may require a full bladder for better imaging. Procedures like colposcopy and hysteroscopy may cause mild discomfort but are generally well-tolerated. Your healthcare provider will provide specific instructions for each test, including any necessary preparations and what to expect during recovery.
