Colonoscopy Durinmg Pregnancy

Is there any risk of having a colonoscopy during pregnancy ? Is it like an x-ray ?

Talk to your doctor about this.

I've just had a colonoscopy and it's definitely not an x-ray. See your doctor to describe the procedure.

I remember when they gave me my pap for this pregnancy they seen some bumps that they thought could be a repeat of my HPV, but it turns out they were ok, and i think i remember the doc saying that they wouldn't treat me for them if i was pregnant. I remember having a colonoscopy when i had the first ones. It's not a x-ray though.
