Getting a pelvic exam?
Hello,
I am a 25 year old female. I posted in a previous question that I would prefer a family doctor not do a pelvic exam. However, I would feel comfortable having an Ob/Gyn do tit. I found one about 10 minutes from work that can accommodate my schedule by offering me an appointment after 5PM and accepts my insurance. I looked them up on Vitals and the doctor got very good reviews from patients. However, the doctor is a male. This would be my first ever exam. Therefore, would it be a good idea to see a male doctor? Can I ask when booking the appointment that a female nurse be present? Also, I am a virgin, so do I even need to have the exam? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
