Did my doctor molest me, or am I being paranoid?!


Question: Did my doctor molest me, or am I being paranoid!?
I've had numerous check-ups (I'm 15 years old) with a trusted family doctor!. He's really nice, but every time I see him, he does put his hands down my pants, and places his hand on my!.!.!.area!. (I'm a girl!.) My mom's always there, but she doesn't seem to mind!. He just keeps it there for about a few seconds, sometimes just feeling around my hip area/top of my pubic area!. He doesn't wear a glove!.
I told my friends, and they think that doctors aren't supposed to that, and that I should tell someone!. They say their's don't!.
I think they're just being kind of paranoid, but now that I think of it, it does make me extremely uncomfortable!.
But isn't that just a standart part of a check up!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
at that age your doctor will check things in that area to keep in track with things!. usually your doctor (especially if he is your family phisician) will check things in your abdominal area!. by doing this he can (just by feeling) tell if there is anything abnormal with your menstrual cycle, your apendix, even your felopian tubes!.
however, no matter how often he does this, once you are uncomfortable with anything he does, you can feel free to let him know and ask him if it is really necessary to do this every time!.
telling your mom may not solve the problem because she may well tell you that "the doctor knows what he is doing" and embarrass you for even mentioning it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hmmm!.!.!.whenever I had check ups they never did that to me!.!.!.even if it is normal, he should ask you if he can first!.!.!.the only time my doctor did that was when my vagaina was red and he looked at it breifly for a few seconds, and then gave me some meds!.!.!.maybe talk to your mom about how uncomfortable it makes you feel and ask the doctor if that is a normal procedure!.
It sounds a bit creepy to me, so if he tries to do it, tell him it makes you uncomfortable, and if he is professional, he should not do it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

A regular health check up doesn't require him touching you there unless he is checking for something specific and he probably should be using a glove to do this!. Next time if he tries to do it ask him if it's necessary for him to do this as you don't feel comfotable with him touching you there!. Talk to your mum about it too!. If it doesn't feel right you have a right to say soWww@Answer-Health@Com

My doctor did that once but that was when i was alot younger (like 9 or 10) and he didnt stick his hand down there he just looked down there to make sure everything was normal!. I would say ask your mom because that really doesn't sound normal, and doctors should never do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable in that way!. I don't think your friends are paranoid!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

What kind of check up are you going for!? Is is something to do with your "area"!? If so, then yeah, thats normal but its not normal if you have a cold or somethign!. You should go in with your mom when she has a check up and see if he does it to her!. OR !.!. this may sound offensive but tell your mom to stay out the room and see how far the dr takes it!.!. tell your mom to stand by the door or put a nanny cam in your purse and get him on tape doing "whatever" to you!. Good Luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If it made you feel uncomfortable you should talk to your Mom about it hun!.!.!.she was there with you, and was was your age once too, confide in her and I am sure she will help you to remember what was going on!.!.!.maybe he was feeling your abdomen, but honestly if it made you feel scared or bad then you need to tell someone just in case!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well what were the checkups for!?!? SInce you are 15 and right in the middle of puberty then the doctor might want to check there but if it makes you feel uncomfortable then tell your mum because she isn't going to get mad or anything just ask her to talk to the doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Did you ask your mom if she saw!? Did you ask your mom if it is normal!?

SO you are just sitting there, fully clothed, and he does this!? Or are you stripped down to a gown and he looks at you!?

More info needed!. Talk to your mom about how uncomfortable you are!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

call hospitals and doctor's offices in your city and tell them your situation and ask them if that would be a normal procedure!.!.!. you can also call the police department to inform them that you may feel violated!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It doesnt matter if this was standard or not, there is a reason why you feel uncomfortable!. You should talk to your parents about this, tell them how you feel!. You shouldnt have to feel this way!. You can always switch doctors!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I dont think that is normal for a doctor to do,tell ur mom or another trusted adult!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wow!.
Im sorry but this is really incredible and I never knew someone had the same problem!. Im 14 and I was molested by my doctor and that was how it started!. When he started he would just leave his hand there with the glove!. Then he removed the gloves!. Then he would move around his fingers!. He also put his fingers inside (im sorry its so embarrassing) He would also make me take off my shirt!. My mother was never present though!.
Even if its not normal switch doctors!. I never, ever told anyone and no one knows!. I just told my mother I wanted a female doctor!.
No matter what the circumstances are, if your uncomfortable tell an adult and switch doctors!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
