    Hi @ellie2000
    I cannot speak for others but I'm pretty sure I've never heard of anyone who has ever done that and don't think it's something common or that the chance of someone possibly having one should worry you. I do assume it might cause pain and don't think it should be advisable to ever do so. Is there a reason why you're asking?

    @ellie2000 this is an important question you've asked as a lot of people can feel worried about these things. It really depends on someone's health and symptoms and what is recommended by a medical professional to help someone.

    Some people may be recommended to have a colonoscopy which is a test to check inside your bowels. I've found some information on the NHS website which you might find helpful reading through. As we're not medical professionals here, we'd encourage you to reach out to your GP or a medical professional if you have any questions or worries about anything medical related.

    There is also cervical screenings which are offered to people with a cervix aged between 25 and 64. There's more information about this on the NHS website too - https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/cervical-screening/

    I hope this is helpful :)
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤
