Pap smear: a test to detect cervical cancer
Heads up, ladies, I've got a secret ... Pap smears aren't that bad! Honestly ... it's not painful, it's awkward ... like having your arm bent in a weird way or something. The worst part of going to get a Pap is not knowing what to expect! So here's a quick heads-up:
Pap smears are strongly suggested for girls who are 18+ and/or sexually active. Before the actual test, you'll probably want to pee. It makes things a bit more comfy. Next, the doctor is going to ask you about your sexual activity, medical history, and all that doctor-type jazz. Remember, it's confidential, so be honest! Seriously, this is important. If you leave out facts or don't tell the whole truth, the doctor won't have a full picture of what's going on—it can screw things up. Having sex within 24 hours of the Pap can cause inaccuracies.
The doctor will tell you to undress and you'll lie on your back with your knees bent and legs apart on a table. Your feet might be put into stirrups. You'll feel pressure as the lubricated speculum is inserted ... brace yourself, it might be cold! The speculum is holding your vagina open so the doctor can take a look-see and take the swab. If you're not comfortable with the size of the speculum, you can request a smaller one. The swab will be used to test for cervical changes.
If you're having a full pelvic exam, the doctor will also take different swabs to test for STIs. The speculum is then removed and TA-DA. You're done. It only takes a minute, literally.
Pap smears can be uncomfortable, but it's impor- tant to get them yearly for early detection of cervical cancer. I know it's weird to have your legs spread on a table in a doctor's office, but keep in mind, doctors do this alllll the time; it's normal. They won't be weirded out or turned on by your vagina; it's just a medical procedure to your doctor. If you're still uncomfortable, try finding a female family doctor, or going to a sexual health clinic, which is much more anonymous.

The Inheritor
Alistair strolled through darkness shunning himself from light, he was plunged into the depths of hell by the greed of his own family. He crawled from those depths leaving trails of blood, craving for vengeance and toiling like a crazy wounded wolf. After years of struggle he stands at the peak, a peak no one could touch, a peak where he could disdain anyone. Alistair had long got his revenge and quenched his burning fire with blood of those wronged him. The man who was supposed to have achieved everything one could possibly attain in a lifetime was actually left with nothing but felt utter isolation and icy solitude before his inevitable end, the death. ***** Alistair was given another chance, reincarnation, with a system and the inheritance of the entire universe. He’s determined to lead an entirely different life, a life in which he truly pursues happiness with lots of friends, lovers and a lovable family. Will he get over his past and really turn a new leaf??? Will a place where law of jungle has long seeped into the society allow him lead a pleasant life without any carnage or bloodshed?????? ------------- Warning: About Story The Inheritor will be your standard reincarnation fantasy in a futuristic setup with cultivation being a mainstream occupation. Though it's a standard novel with Reincarnation and Cultivation 'The Inheritor' is not a HAREM and it'll have Romance. The action might take the back seat in the first part of the book. About the Author This is my first novel or any attempt to write something so I'm pretty much a newbie trying to pen down the fantasies rolling in my mind. English isn't my First language so brace yourself for some grammatic potholes. But I'm genuinely working on improving my English but it won't be happening overnight as it's a process, I guess. (for the time being, I'm trying to make it readable with some Grammar checking software) Moreover, I wish to improve my writing skills as the story grows and readers help in spotting mistakes or critics might turn it into a reality.

I should have been the Hero instead
William Valenston had a happy life untill a new demonlord appeared.With the constant threat of the vile creatures he must quickly become a man and defend his Race from the approaching disaster. the synopsis and title will probably change later on And I think it gets better after arc 1 ch 3 The real story won't begin untill the heroes are summoned so you may feel a little bored while Im building the world and te mc' s personality. I wanted to state that this novel will start with a lighter tune but then get dark real fast. For the sexual content: it wont happen untill much longer. And when it happens it wont be overly explicit. Gore and traumatising content: It wont be at the level of nauseous but it may be too so just to be safe. This is my first try on writing novels so I welcome all of your criticism either good or bad. And lastly english isn't my native tounge so expect some grammer mistakes.But I will work on that part I promise.
