Pelvic/Pap
So I had my pap in Novemeber. Have always had norm paps.
I was informed today that my first appointment will consist of a pap/pelvic exam even though I just had one. Maybe it's just me but I plan to refuse it. I dont need another pap when they're needed only every 3 years anyways, and I dont have any issues going on, theres no reason for a pelvic. They said even if they dont do a pap will still do breast and pelvic exam ...again just had that done in novemeber,I do self breast exams monthly also... I'm sure they will give me flack about refusing it but the cons outweigh any benefit so oh well to them it's my body,my baby.
Anyone else declining pelvic exams till the end of their pregnancy? Like when it does become necessary?
How was your doc/nurse about your choice?
