What to Expect During a Colposcopy at Serenity Holistic OB/GYN
Hearing that you need a colposcopy after an abnormal Pap smear can feel overwhelming. But at Serenity Holistic OB/GYN, we want you to know that this procedure is safe, straightforward, and an important step in protecting your cervical health.
Here’s everything you need to know so you can feel informed and confident.
🌿 What Is a Colposcopy?
A colposcopy is a simple, in-office procedure that allows your OB/GYN to take a closer look at your cervix, vagina, and vulva. Using a special magnifying instrument called a colposcope, we can carefully examine your tissues for any abnormal changes that a Pap smear might have detected.
Think of it as a more detailed check-up—like zooming in with a camera lens for a clearer picture.
🩺 Why Is It Done?
A colposcopy is usually recommended when:
- Your Pap smear shows abnormal or unusual cells
- You test positive for high-risk HPV strains
- You experience unexplained bleeding or lesions
This procedure helps us determine if further testing or treatment is needed. In many cases, the results show that no serious issues are present.
⏱️ How Long Does It Take?
The procedure usually takes 15–30 minutes. It is performed right in our North Miami Beach office, and you can return to your normal activities the same day.
💡 What to Expect During the Procedure
- Preparation: You’ll lie back on the exam table, similar to a Pap smear.
- Examination: A speculum is inserted to allow access to the cervix.
- Magnification: The colposcope stays outside your body, providing a magnified view for your doctor.
- Optional Biopsy: If anything unusual is seen, a tiny tissue sample may be collected for lab testing.
You may feel some mild pressure or cramping, but most women tolerate it well.
🌸 Comfort and Support at Serenity Holistic
At Serenity Holistic OB/GYN, we know these types of exams can feel intimidating. That’s why we:
- Explain every step before and during the procedure
- Provide a calm, supportive environment
- Focus on your comfort, dignity, and peace of mind
📞 Take the Next Step in Your Care
If you’ve been told you need a colposcopy, don’t delay. Early evaluation means early peace of mind—and if something does need attention, catching it early is the best step you can take.
At Serenity Holistic OB/GYN, we take your health seriously, and we’ll walk with you through every step of the process.

Is it time to talk to an OB/GYN about your symptoms?
If something feels “off” with your body, don’t ignore it. Your reproductive health is too important to wait and see.
At Serenity Holistic OB/GYN in North Miami Beach, we understand that many women delay seeking care because they think their symptoms are normal—or they’re unsure if it’s serious enough to see a doctor.
Here’s the truth: if it concerns you, it’s worth a conversation.
Common Symptoms You Shouldn’t Ignore:
- Irregular or heavy bleeding:
If your periods have become heavier, longer, or more painful—or if you’re spotting between cycles—it’s a signal your body needs attention.
- Pelvic pain or pressure:
Persistent pain in your lower abdomen could be related to fibroids, endometriosis, infections, or other treatable conditions.
- Abnormal discharge or odor:
Changes in vaginal discharge, color, or odor may indicate an infection or imbalance.
- Pain during intimacy or urination:
These are not just “part of being a woman.” They’re symptoms we can help diagnose and treat.
- A recent positive STD test or concern about exposure:
Early diagnosis = better outcomes. We offer walk-in STD testing for your convenience—no appointment required.
- You’re overdue for a Pap smear or screening:
Preventive care saves lives. We provide routine Pap smears, colposcopies, and HPV vaccinations on site.
Why Waiting Can Lead to Bigger Problems
Delaying care can allow small issues to grow into more serious conditions—like missed diagnoses, fertility complications, or avoidable infections. The earlier we evaluate your symptoms, the better we can treat them.
We’re Here to Help—Without Judgment
At Serenity Holistic OB/GYN, we’re committed to compassionate, professional care—without shame or embarrassment.
Whether you’re dealing with something urgent or just want peace of mind, we’re here for you.
