"Non Existant Menopause Training When It Matters!"

I attended a smear test with a nurse that has no training in menopause and conditions relating to this that. Namely the common geno urinary syndrome (g.u.s.) which results in thining tissues around the area where samples need to be taken. I made the nurse aware of my condition before she started. However, I endeavoured unessary pain during the test and 4 days after due to the lack of knowledge, skill and experience of the nurse. It would be a great improvement if the practice trained nurses taking smear tests specifically along with g. p.s on the subject of menopause.
