Yes, a physical should be fine. You won't be getting a gynecological exam for a sports physical, so there's no harm there. You may want to wear a tampon simply for your own comfort so that the physician doesn't notice that you're wearing a pad, because you *may* have to strip to your underwear, but I believe you'll probably be wearing a "hospital gown" if he or she does have you strip down, so that may not even be an issue.

At any rate, have no worries about your menstruation. :)

u can

yes, they will, there is no reason to do a Gyno exam at your age, especially for just a sports physical. just tell the doc, if they say anything.

yes, that won't be a problem

Yes you can.

Yes, you can get a physical. Sports physicals do not include pelvic exams. Relax, the office will not even know you are on your period unless you tell them.

A physical, yes.

A pap smear, no.

You can get a physical, you just cannot get a vaginal exam and a pap smear. If they want to do a vaginal exam (which they shouldn't) for your physical, kindly tell them that you are on your period. They will reschedule you for another time when you are not on your period.

yah you can, they understand because it just happens to be that day when your are on it. they've surely witnesed that a lot.

If you did it when you had a pad on what happened? Oh my god I would be so embarassed for the doctor to see.

NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

They bleed to death and get clitoris cancer
