Question: should one stop going to a pediatric doctor?


Answers: should one stop going to a pediatric doctor?

i would say ages 17-18. At 17 in the US you're still legally considered a ''child'', and at 18 you're considered a ''legal adult''. Of course this has nothing to do with bodily changes, which is the real reason you're seeing a doctor.........

18...my daughter is 19 and she still sees her Pediatric diabetes doctor and she will until she is 21

whenever someone starts or is close to a period or is going through stages of puberty that are signs of "becoming a women" that is when you should go to a gyno doctor.

I would stop about the time you start to reach puberty, but it depends on whether or not the pediatric doctor you are talking about is the regular doctor you see , or a specialist. If it is a specialist I would stay with the specialist. It depends on the situation.
