Smear test/ cervical screening prep

A

Hey ladies,

So yesterday I used a lil lubricant around my clitoral hood.

I just booked in a smear test/ cervical screening test. I read the booklet and realised that I’m not meant to use any kind of lube at least two days before but should it be okay cos I didn’t apply the lube to or inside the actual vagina?

Should I be okay or should I reschedule it just to be on the safe side, so that it doesn’t mess with the results?
