Lol...I forget everytime how they do it, but my doc tends to be as less invasive as possible (I had mine done Tues) and although she just did a no look swipe there, I was still, like, HEaaLLO!?! I guess everyone is different and the area is pretty sensitive as it is, but I didnt get any actual 'insertion'.
