How long does it take to get results from a pelvic exam?

The results of a pelvic exam itself are immediate. The doctor can assess things like the appearance of the external genitalia, the size and position of the uterus and ovaries (during a bimanual exam), and can visually inspect the cervix (via a speculum exam). These are all observed during the exam.

However, if any tests are done during the pelvic exam, like a Pap smear, STI testing, or other lab work, then the results for *those* tests will take additional time. This can range from a few days to several weeks depending on the specific test and the lab's turnaround time. Your doctor's office will usually inform you of how long to expect to wait for results.
