Answers:
Going to a gyno is mostly to check for medical problems like cervical cancer. It is a preventative measure to make sure any problems are caught in plenty of time.
You would also go to a gyno if you are having any problems down there or if you wanted to get a prescription for birth control pills.
Your family physician can also do this during a normal physical.
