Speculum without KY

Inserting a speculum into the vagina without lubricant should be enough to disbar the doctor from the medical register.

Especially in women with little natural lubrication, the beaks of the speculum could cause small superficial lacerations, due to friction during insertion and rotation. It is not dermis, but mucosa. Water-based lubricants are designed for this use.

Tap water contains chlorine, which can, yes, interfere with chemical tests.
