I know this might sound silly but..........

[ohsugar!]

I would say for about the last 3yrs or so i have shaved down below, and i like it like that ! but i am due to go gor a smear test and i think am going to feel stupid, being shaved down there. Has anybody esle went for one while shaved? god i dont seem to be wording this well! Is it more common than i think maybe? or am i worrying about nothing??
Regards Ohsugar!

You are worrying about nothing.

[Hevsky25]

i agree. whoevers doing your smear, will have seen all kinds of things down there! As far as i know, plenty of people go hair-free.

[dontask]

god i wondered about that to . do i shave or let it grow ?

[alijangra]

They wont even notice, they will be too busy looking at your cervix.

[ohsugar!]

Last time I went for a smear, the nurse said to me 'oooh be careful how close you shave down there!' and you know what, it's my 'down there' I have been shaving for as long as I can remember and I will continue to do so! Don't let it put you off. x

Feeling Stuipid!
I knew a woman who borrowed her flat mates FemFresh spray before going for a smear.
She did wonder why the Nurse said "you needn't have gone to so much trouble"???
When she got home, her flat mate informed her she hadn't got any FemFresh..... She had used glitter spray!

Don't worry, atleast is shows you are more hygenic

[jkkerr]

I've been for smears at varying stages of baldy, stubbly and downright hairy!

You could always make a joke of it if you want to.....but they have definitely seen it all before

As im a Mr superstud ive only been with one women who never shaved.
99.9% of most women shave.
Should we have a Q/A on shaving
Should i be a plucked chicken?
I hope you did nt mind a man answering this.
