		Discomfort during the speculum examination is infrequently due to the speculum being too large.
		Now, imagine that the speculum is not placed deeply enough within the vagina before it is opened Ð the wider part of the speculum will now be stretching an area of the vagina much less capable of expanding comfortably.
		However, many make the mistake of allowing the speculum to move slightly out of the vagina during this resistance, which again means the misplacement of the speculum is likely to cause undue pressure in the first third of her vagina Ð a sensation the patient will experience as the instrument being "too large."
