Does it hurt when the vaginal expander is inserted into the vagina?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Could you please tell me if using a dilator in the vagina will be painful?

Doctor's answer:

When examining the cervix, using a speculum may not be very painful, but it can cause a slight feeling of fullness. First, you should relax and not be too nervous. The speculum, also known as a duckbill speculum, is a common tool used for vaginal examinations. The speculum is sterilized under high pressure and is sterile. During the examination, the doctor will wear disposable gloves and then slowly and gently insert the closed speculum into the vagina.
