What is "Obstetrics " ?
Obstetrics is the field of study concentrated on pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period. As a medical specialty, obstetrics is combined with gynecology under the discipline known as obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN), which is a surgical field.

My experience over Obstetrics "Deep vaginal pain after Pap smear"
I’m hoping for some guidance. I’m 32, one child, no previous issues down there. I’ve actually not been sexually active for a few years. I went to the OBGYN about a month ago to obtain birth control as I have been seeing someone and want to be proactive. But still haven’t been intimate yet. I felt absolutely fine before I went in. The papsmear hurt a bit more than previous times, it even bled which never happened before. The pap came back with atypical glandular cells of endocervical origin but HPV was negative. I’m set for a follow up Thursday but since that pap I have been feeling discomfort that has now become extremely painful. I don’t think I can wait until Thursday. So my questions are:
- What the heck is happening to me?
- What should I do? Do I try to get into OBGYN or go to ER?
Thank you for any help!
Edit: I should also add that I am a bit swollen down there as well.
