When should I have my first gynecologist exam?!
Question: When should I have my first gynecologist exam?
I'm 16, but I already know that I am going to want babies in the future. So to make sure I have a healthy reproductive system, when should I plan on having my first gynecologist exam? I'm regular and have no problems at all, so is there any reason to go in the near future, or should I wait until I'm like 18 or something? Do people go to the gynecologist for, like, check-ups? I should also mention that I am NOT sexually active. If that changes anything. Any information is really helpful, thanks!
Answers:
When you turn 18 or are sexually active, whichever comes first.
And GOOD FOR YOU for wanting to go! It's a great health tool a lot of younger girls miss out on from fear.
unless u start to have problem or become sexulay active then you could wait till 18 if you wish too but if u get a lot of uti then you might want to think about
when you turn 21, or when you become sexually active
you don't need one.
