Going to the Gyno for the first time in a few weeks…what can I expect on the first visit?
You will have a few examinations done, which include the following: A pelvic exam is a way for your gynaecologist to examine your female organs and check for any gynaecological problems. You may be worried about your first pelvic exam. It’s very normal to be anxious about something when you don’t know what to expect. Hopefully after reading this, you will be reassured that it is simple, isn’t painful and takes only about 5 minutes. It is also normal to feel embarrassed or uneasy about your first exam, I still feel embarrassed with mine and I’ve had may many pelvic examinations over the past 10 years due to female related problems I’m experiencing. I actually just went to see my gyno about 2 months back for a follow up after having surgery and being diagnosed with endometriosis and the examination, really is a simple, painless examination that literally only takes a couple of minutes. However, if you know what to expect, it may help you relax. I’m sure your gyno understands how you feel
