I had my first a week ago. Dr gave me Advil right after but I dont think I would've needed it because the pain was gone by the time I was dressed. The pain was similar to localized cramps but it only lasted 5 -10 minutes. She said I would spot during the day but all that came out was the stuff they use to disinfect the cervix. (Pap smear pain is more sharp than this pain.)
Why do one? Mine was to determine if I have a "Luteal Phase Defect". A blood sample was also taken to measure progesterone level and an ultrasound was performed to check the uterine lining. Doctor wants all 3 tests to agree with the cycle day (in my case CD21).
Am still waiting for my results.
