Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if lubricating gel affects patients' perception of discomfort during speculum insertion, as compared to water.

Primary Outcome

The outcome measure is a single measurement of pain using a 10-point visual analog scale entitled "Visual Pain Scale" immediately following speculum insertion. The scale is a continuous 10cm line with the minimum value of 0 (labeled "no pain") on the left side of the line, and a maximum value of 10 (labeled "worst pain") on the right side of the line. Higher scores represent more pain and a worse outcome. There are no additional measurements obtained, and patients will not be followed for study

Interventions
