Why did the doctor push on my stomach as at teen?
I use to get chest pain before I realize it was just gas. Sometime the doctor would push on my stomach, like really hard and all over. It happened a lot when I was teen. Did they think I was pregnant?

They didn't think you were pregnant. Palpating the abdomen, looking for signs of enlarged organs, blockages in the intestines etc. is a normal exam for the kind of complaints you had.
If the doctor thought you were pregnant, you would have gotten an actual pregnancy test.

No they do that as a normal part of a exam. To find a early pregnancy the doctor would have to give you a internal exam.

They likely weren't checking for pregnancy. They were checking your kidneys and other organs to look for swelling or tenderness. They do it to everyone, no matter if they are sexually active or not.
