Um.....

....seems legit? Don't think this is still available, so it must not have been as easy to use a tampon and/or as accurate as a doctor doing the test. The things ya find online!

I'm gonna assume this ad is from the 1970s. $30 for an exam/test?! Wow! I visit to my D.O. for whatever is currently wrong with me, etc is $140 and that's just the visit! She once found a q-tip head in my ear canal (had no idea it was in there) and flushed it out. That was an extra $75 on the bill. No more q-tips in the ears, I'll stick with my pen cap for itchy ears! :)

My doctor always said never put anything in your ear other than your elbow. That was after I got a horrible ear infeaction from scratching the inside with a pen cap...

Hehehe, I have a pen cap too for my years! Apparently something called Debrox is supposed to do wonders for itchy years.

This ad makes me so scared for women who used it. An exam surely isn't a high point of one's day, but wow, the alternative if the results are positive *brrr*
