I had the same procedure done. The local hurt as much as the biopsy. The Ob/Gyn who performed the procedure told me that the books he studied describing the cervical area as having very few nerve endings. I told him the book was wrong.
I am of the opinion that western medicine is extremely negatively biased in the use of invasive procedures and unecessarily painful tests on women. Can you imagine any man yearly submitting to having the head of their penis scraped for cell samples; then volunteering gladly to having a biopsy just to be certain it's not cancer? Consider the myriad invisible venereal diseases men carry! Men should be the ones REQUIRED to get samples taken!
