Hey everyone .. I hope you’re all well .. I have received an appt for an transvaginal scan 
.. I am soooo scared .. I don’t know what 2expect .. has anyone had one done? before this one they want to do a normal abdominal scan that I am familiar with but what is a transvaginal scan? Ive already started worrying about it .. that’s all I keep thinking about .. can anyone please help .. thankyou!! 
Re: transvaginal scan!! help :( .. females only plz
A transvaginal ultrasound is done by inserting the probe into your you-know-what. They do it to get a clearer ultrasound image as opposed to an abdominal scan.
It's not too bad honestly. Definitely much much better than a pap smear if you've had one. They insert the probe (not as deep as pap smear) and leave it there and give you a paper sheet to cover up, so it's not like someone's staring down there all the time. Takes about 10 mins, and doesn't hurt at all.
Relax, you'll be fine! :)

Ive never had a smear test done or anything of that sort .. I'm still a bit worried tho .. Im such a softie :( .. awww well thanx and I hope it is how you're describing it to be without any pain .. thanx again!! :)
I was also very scared but trust me it doesn't hurt. I preffer it over the abdominal scan as its much clearer. Just relax and it won't hurtv:)

Transvaginal scan doesn't hurt at all...I had it when I was pregnant. Inshallah, you'll be okay.
Re: transvaginal scan!! help :( .. females only plz
it doesn't hurt- it can be a bit uncomfortable but its just a routine thing and lets face it, pregnancy isn't exactly the funnest thing to go through either.
Re: transvaginal scan!! help :( .. females only plz
thankyou for your replies Drama Queen, Iyla and somegroovychick :) .. after reading your posts I feel a bit reassured .. Ive got it tomorrow morning :( .. I know Im going to get really nervous and freaked out as thats just me but Im going to try to be brave! :) .. Ive got the abdominal scan first which I have to drink 1litre of water before I go then Ive got the transvaginal .. Im scared no matter how much I say :( .. wish me luck!
Re: transvaginal scan!! help :( .. females only plz
I had it once and honestly I didnt feel a thing.. it's not like something keeps rotating on you like an abdominal scan (or so I thought) once inserted, they usually just look at the monitor and you hardly feel anything!
Re: transvaginal scan!! help :( .. females only plz
I have it several times every month and i dont feel a thing. Dont worry you will be fine inshAllah.

Re: transvaginal scan!! help :( .. females only plz
hey everyone ... Ive had both ultrasounds and I'm absolutely fine :D .. it didn't hurt at all .. I'm soooo proud of myself!! I actually preferred the transvaginal one lol .. when getting the abdominal one I felt pressure but with the other one nothing at all .. I went in and the lady told me maybe I don't need 2get the transvaginal one, I was sooo glad but as I didn't drink enough water I had 2 have both done and I'm glad I did :) .. thankyou everyone for your encouragement .. it really does mean alot to me :) my husband couldn't believe I had it done without any screaming or getting upset haha :)
