In January, I have my annual physical exam.

I have had many Pap tests/Pelvic exams before but I am always anxious about them.

I know my doctor has probably seen every size, shape, and age of various vaginas but I am still concerned about what he thinks about mine.

I have thoughts such as are my labia the right size (too small or too large)?, should I shave my pubic hair or just trim to tidy things up?...etc.

He is a nice doctor and is always gentle with me. But the last Pap test/Pelvic exam was painful because I couldn't relax. It's not just me and the doctor in the exam room he also has a nurse in the room as well. I feel like my vagina is on display!

And I don't like someone that I hardly know being that close to my vagina. My vagina is a very private part of my body that nobody sees since I am not in a relationship.

How do I relax during the exam? What do doctors really think about when they are performing these exams?
