Immediately upon entering the room, the photographer will have you take off your clothes from the waist down. It is important to exude confidence, so just smile and toss your thong and leggings on the chair. The photographer will then ask you to lie on the bed, put your feet in the stirrups, and spread your legs apart. No biggie, you’ve probably been there and done that before! The photographer will put some gel on the camera and have you take a deep breath while they shove that baby right into your vagina!

Oh…by the way, this is a special photo shoot called a transvaginal ultrasound to determine if the uterine lining is healthy. No flash required! They will simply click away, photographing your endometrium (lining of the uterus). A good model can be very flexible with her expressions and mood.  You can do a sweet, sexy, or pensive look.  For the big finally – try perplexed! Not every model can do that, but if you stare at the ceiling and wonder what kind of lining you have – paisley, striped, or simply black – you can get perplexed quite quickly.  The shoot took only 30 minutes…then it was a wrap!  Just jump off the bed, get dressed, and bounce out of the office feeling very lithe and gorgeous. Nothing like a menopausal photo shoot!

The holidays are just around the corner………..time to get those pictures for your holiday cards ready!!!
