I've never had my gynecologist do this. I guess I keep my hooch clean enough on my own.

9/1/2011 12:30:34 PM

It came up in conversation because I am using vinegar to clean the pipes on teh coffee maker.

Rumor holds that wolfpackgrrr's vagine ia uncouth

9/1/2011 12:32:31 PM

I wonder what that does to vaginal PH levels?

9/1/2011 12:33:17 PM

douche is basically vinegar and water, isnt it?

9/1/2011 12:33:53 PM

What do they squirt it in with? A turkey baster?

9/1/2011 12:36:04 PM

Pretty much. And you're not really supposed to use it unless you've got some serious skank going on since it screwed with your pH levels.

9/1/2011 12:39:45 PM

Some of you bitches must not pay attention to what actually happens down there while you are at the doctor's office.

A pap smear tests the cells from the cervix. Before taking a sample of skin cells, the doctor will clean the cervix using a cotton swab. And if you've had an IUD inserted or a D&C or any other procedure where they go into the cervix, your doctor has cleaned your cervix with a solution.

9/1/2011 1:38:58 PM

I think they used it on me when they were searching for cancer. I don't think they do it with a regular pap.

9/1/2011 1:39:59 PM

No, they do it during a regular Pap. Google it. It improves the quality of the Pap Smear.

HPV also turns white when exposed to vinegar and it is often used to detect the papillae because the lesions can be indiscernible from the normal geography of the vaginal wall.

damn, bottombaby up in here dropping some knowledge on you bitches about cunts.

9/1/2011 1:45:37 PM

It comes in handy when giving talks on sex ed.

Also, I'm a little obsessive. I have to know everything that I can get my hands on about a test or procedure that I'm having done or medication that I'm taking. I only have one body and it just seems prudent to know as much as I can wrap my little brain around.

I guess pipe type doesn't matter, vinegar cleans pipes.

before or after they insert the metal thing they put up there to ratchet it open. Once that's in I just dont care anymore and stare at the ceiling until it's over

lawl at "clean out a cervix"

It's not exactly some hidden cave...

9/1/2011 2:09:58 PM

White vinegar, apple cider vinegar, malt vinegar, rice vinegar?

9/1/2011 2:17:06 PM

Wow. If someone is going to shove foreign objects in my lady bits once a year for most of my life, I want to know just what they are doing and why. When I had my first exam, I made the doctor narrate everything.

How the hell is a cotton swab anything like having a squirt gun of vinegar squirted into your vagina? Having liquid put into an organ feels a lot different from a scratchy cotton swab being shoved into one.

9/1/2011 9:49:08 PM

Do any of y'all chicks use a male gyno? Is it awkward?

9/1/2011 9:50:29 PM

I still think its funny how descaling a Keurig struck up this conversation.

9/1/2011 9:51:12 PM

^^ I've always had a female gyno. I'm kind of paranoid of male ones.

9/1/2011 9:51:43 PM

Oh lord. I've never heard if anyone injecting vinegar INTO the cervix. That would be like filling the uterus with vinegar which makes zero sense. They use a cotton swab dipped in an acetic acid solution to remove vaginal secretions in order to get a clean sample of skin cells to look for cancer.

My first gyno was male. Then having two children, I had to see every doctor in the practice at least once and a few of them are male. I feel like nothing is awkward after you have a baby.

9/1/2011 9:52:09 PM

I don't get a solution squirted in me at a pap. They do put this goopy gel on a long cotton swab and roll it around in there before they scape the cells.

9/1/2011 9:52:50 PM

haha that's what I mean though. The doctor doesn't sit there with a bottle of Heinz vinegar and start douching you in the middle of the exam

9/1/2011 9:53:15 PM

bahahahahaha WHAT?!!!?!

i have never heard of such a thing...

9/1/2011 9:54:57 PM

I ran a gallon of vinegar through my Keurig and it is running better, but now I cant get all the vinegar out.

9/1/2011 9:56:38 PM

The thought of pap smears bothers me. Scraping cells from your vag sounds painful.

someone Photoshop the "you gonna get raped" creepy guy into a doctors coat saying "YOU GONNA GET SCRAPED"

9/1/2011 10:02:14 PM

It's not so much painful as it's a very uncomfortable feeling. It's hard to describe.

my gf likes it when I get her Keurig running better

9/1/2011 10:05:17 PM

I just hate the pipe washer looking thing that scrapes yo out, plus the initial pop open of the vag.

lame

9/1/2011 10:05:39 PM

Yeah, it's not painful. It does make me cramp though.

9/1/2011 10:06:00 PM

Yeah, I don't have a vag, so its hard to imagine scraping in there.

And on that note, I do not want dudes sticking fingers up my asshole. So I'm hoping prostate exams are improved to something like a blood test by the time I have to go through that.

9/1/2011 10:06:11 PM

I mean, you've probably scraped cells from a girl's cervix before and just didn't notice it.


I've had a male gyno before. It was a little awkward... especially when he was feeling my tatties and asking what year of undergrad I was in and what car I drove

9/1/2011 10:07:19 PM

Are all women so uncomfortable at their obgyn? I was back when I was younger, but now I've been with the same one for four years and we chat it up like old friends whenever I see her.

9/1/2011 10:08:29 PM

Wait, they play with boobs too? I thought boob doctors were different doctors.

Education ITT

9/1/2011 10:08:30 PM

Yeah, I dunno...I think I would feel a little weird having some dude all up in me and touching my tatas...

I mean when a dude is that close to me I don't want him scraping my cervix....at least not to examine the cells under a microscope afterwards...
