Sounds like a transvaginal ultrasound. It should give the dr a better, clearer view of your ovaries. I have never had one done but I know several folks who have and they all said it wasnt as bad as it sounds. The probe is covered with a condom and covered with ultrasound jelly and inserted gently. It shouldn't hurt at all though it may feel odd when they move it around to get a different angel.
This type of ultrasound is done a lot for early pregnancy since it gives a pretty close, clear shot into the uterus so a few searches on some of the pregnancy web sites should find you even more info.
Hope that helps! And I hope they find your ovaries are just fine!
