Debs<br><br>Good luck - basically yes it is internal - you get used to them approaching with a great white dildo with a condom on - and yes I am serious for a change. No it does not hurt a bit - can be uncomfortable when you have loads of follies but never really hurts. They are checking for a thin lining for the endometrium and small follies which will then go on to grow and produce loads of eggs. They will no doubt blood test too - mine do but they love blood there - I think they have a farm of vampire bats to feed. If all is ok off you go on stimulation - that's when the fun starts.<br>Good luck - you will be fine.<br>Love<br>Tracey<br>xxx
