Belle shared with me a post from her blog about ovarian cancer. It is very timely because I had been procrastinating about my long overdue pap-smear test. I had been meaning to go to my ob-gyn but the thought of queueing up with pregnant women doesn’t sound too inviting to me. After so many rounds, I just hate sitting there and wait for an eternity for the ob-gyn.

Moreover, when I am not pregnant, I am not very excited about opening the legs for the very handsome, Indian, Bollywood look alike, male ob-gyn. If I am pregnant, then, bring it on! No problemo. Vagina scan sounds good. Otherwise, that speculum aka duck’s bill looks menacing to me. Furthermore, the ob-gyn will need to sit right smack, face to face with your nether region because he needs to do the procedure.

Now, I seriously need to go find a woman ob-gyn and get it done. No more waiting. No more, let’s wait for another month. BTW, pap smear is best done when you have just finished your period.

Check out Belle’s post to know more about ovarian cancer and how we can prevent it if we go for our yearly pap-smear.
