I’m 19 and have to see a gynecologist next week! I’m freaking out..
I’ve got a family history and symptoms of endometriosis so I’m going to get that checked out.
I’m not sure if my doctors a male or female because they only gave me the first initials of their name!
What do I expect? Will I have to have a pap smear? ultrasound? etc?!
(I am sexually active, but only been with one person who’s only been with me)
Thanks!

Diagnosed With Hpv & Abnormal Cells, What To Do While Waiting For Gyn Appointment?
The other day, the doctor called and told me I tested postive for a high risk strain of HPV, and that I have abnormal cells. My gynecology appointment isn’t for a month, so what am I supposed to do until then?

Concerned About Starting My Period Around My Gyn Appointment?
I have an appointment in 2 weeks with a gynecology specialist. One of my concerns is that my cycle has been off and I have no idea when my next period will start. What do I do if I’m having my period when my appointment time is? Shes a pelvic pain specialist and I’ve had to wait awhile to see her. I heard that you can sometimes still get an exam during your period but the idea grosses me out.

Gynecology Appointment & Abuse?
I was severely sexually abused for four years beginning when I was nine; I’m 18 now. Apparently I have PTSD, etc. I have my first gynecology appointment next month and I am more scared than you can even believe. I don’t see how there’s a possibility that it won’t be as painful as it used to be, and just taking my clothes off will start flashbacks, I’m sure. I’m thinking about the appointment every second of every day, which probably isn’t the best idea but I can’t think of anything else. And I’m not comfortable talking about it either, so I can’t just come out and TELL the OB/GYN. I really don’t know what to do, and I’m not even sure what kind of advice I’m asking for. But any ideas?

What Should I Expect At My First Gynecology Appointment?
If you are going for your first pap smear, it is uncomfortable but not painful. They will take your blood pressure and weigh you. Then they will ask you lots of questions about your health and when your last period was. Then they have you put on a paper gown and get ready for the doctor. When the doctor comes in he may ask some questions about your health. He will discreetly check your breasts for lumps. There will always be a nurse or lady in the room with you and if there isn’t and you want one, ask. Then they will put your feet in stirrups with your legs open and he will put two fingers into your vagina and push on your ovaries to check them. Then they will insert a speculum into your vagina and take a long q-tip and take a sample from your cervix. It doesn’t hurt but is a little uncomfortable. Sometimes they will put a gloved finger into your anus to check to see that everything is okay there. Then it is over.
During the procedure, the doctor will probably talk to you about your life or family and try to keep your mind off what he is doing. If you try hard to relax and take deep breaths, it is less uncomfortable.
Don’t be embarrassed, it is nothing compared to giving birth and being in labor, when it seems everyone is checking your vagina.
hope this helps..
