Hi all - I'm turning 50 in the summer, so menstrual cycle beginning to get more unreliable. Normally, I wait until I'm 2-3 days into a period and then phone the clinic to make an appointment for a screen the following week, so I know I'll be in the clear.
But, my last period was in late November, so I decided to bite the bullet and make an appointment for tomorrow. Of course, that invoked sod's law and it looks like I'm coming on tonight. I just wondered - will it affect the results of the vaginal swab? Google provides mixed answers. I'm assuming it doesn't affect the bacterial culture, just makes thing a bit more messy?
Thanks in advance if anyone has any experiences to share.
