Hi ladies just wondering if any of you have experience on having a vaginal ultrasound? Does it hurt ? Do you get the results straight away or is it more waiting?
I've got one on Friday...not too worried but just anxious about how long this nightmare will go on with all the investigations. Any of you reading my posts will know this is my 3rd scan/procedure in 3 weeks and 2 months since this ordeal began due to blood in urine. I've been diagnosed with VA and started ovestin. I was already on oestrogel and utrogestan.

 Yep I've had a couple done over the years,no,not sore at all

Hi I’ve had three done… doesn’t hurt … just feels a bit strange but nothing to worry about 😊

[Dazedandconfused]

I've had three, as everyone has said they don't hurt.

Thanks ladies,  what about the results? Instantly or a waiting game?

[Dazedandconfused]

I think it depends on the person doing it.  For my first one, the person doing it wasn't particualry forthcoming but the results where with the doctor later the same day.  The other two (one was private) they explained everything they were doing and what they could see as they were doing it.  Hope that helps.

I think you'll have to wait,mine didn't say anything,when I asked,she said,we'll have to look at the images thoroughly

It's more anxiety than stress tbh. Another 2 week urgent referral looking for the big C again....thought I'd had the all clear when my ct scan and cytoscopy were clear. 2 months of anxiety not very nice but I'm sure you ladies are aware of this yourselves.  We just have to get on with it don't we. Really glad I found this forum or I'd have cracked under the pressure

Oh I know and I feel for you I really do,please let us know how you get on?

[Dazedandconfused]

I'll be thinking of you.  I always try to reason with myself that they're erring on the side of caution by checking everything, which is a good thing.  However, I still become a gibbering wreck while waiting for the appointment, then the test and then the results. This forum has certainly stopped me from cracking up at times.  Sending you big hugs xx

That's exactly how I'm thinking...I could have written your post
