My boyfriend is acting weird about my gyno?!


Question: My boyfriend is acting weird about my gyno!?
so I found out my gynecologist is a man and I'm scared enough as it is but willing (just barely) to go through this horrible torture of a pelvic/pap smear exam!. My first time!.

but my boyfriend is being a huge baby about it because he doesn't want another guy touching/sticking fingers where they don't belong!.

he's begging me not to go but I need to refill my pill prescription and they'll blackmail me out of it if I don't go through with this!. I try to explain it's all professional but he just accuses me that I'm going to enjoy it!.

what can I do to calm him down!? he is making me more nervous acting like thisWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
My fiance made a similar comment, but he wasn't really as jealous as your boyfriend seems to be!.!.!.

I think it's hard for males to understand the whole concept of a "pap smear" and gynecologist!. First of all, usually the only thing they think of when the word "vagina" comes up is SEX/pleasure!. So!.!.!.add a MALE to that (to make matters worse, ANOTHER male), and they don't really know how to handle it!.

Basically, your boyfriend should get over himself and stop giving you such a hard time, but his behavior is pretty typical!. Just try to educate him a little more on the whole process, what you go through, etc!.!.!.!.you might even try bringing home some materials for him to read!. He's going to have to get used to your doctor visits (whether your doctor is male or female), so I wouldn't really worry about it!. As for YOU, don't let him stress you out!. It's really not a big deal!.!.!.you shouldn't feel any pain whatsoever, and I hear that male doctors are actually more gentle than female (that's just word of mouth, though)!. No worries, you will be perfectly fine!. Best of luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you yourself aren't comfortable with having a male gynecologist, you could request to switch to a female one instead!.

As for your boyfriend, he really needs to get over the fact that the gynecologist is a male!. Gynecology is not a field purely for females!.
In fact, when your boyfriend goes in for his prostate exam in the future, his family doctor could very well be male!.!.!.ask him how comfortable he'd feel if another guy stuck his fingers where they don't belong!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

umm tell him that he doesnt need to worry about it its a doctor and if he cant handle it then he must not trust you enough to be with you and if he feels like that then maybe you guys shouldnt be together!.!.!.!.no im not saying dump him but just say it so he can think and just freak out thinking that he f***** upWww@Answer-Health@Com

good god is he serious!? ask him what's more important your health or his ego!? what a prat!

If it gets really silly you could lie and tell him you've switched to a female gynecologist, or have him go along with you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

my wife to show me that it is horrible took me along and that right there showed me that there is no way that it could be enjoyable!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tell him to grow up and get a lifeWww@Answer-Health@Com

he is just being dumb ignore himWww@Answer-Health@Com

I just went to the gyno for the first time and had a male do my pap and believe me it was quick and VERY unsexual!. This is not a turn on experience!. Tell your boyfriend that he can request to sit in with you if it makes him feel better!. I was really nervous when I went in to, but it was over with in a couple minutes!. The doctor has appts all day!. Its just vagina to him!. He just wants to make you feel comfy for your exam, but at the end of the day he will not care about what your vagina looked like and he won't even remember your name!. Your boyfriend has to realize that this is necessary for your health!. The gyno is a professional regardless of the gender!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First off, your b/f is being an insecure dork!. Remind him that they will NOT do this exam without a female chaperon in the room (normally the doctors nurse)!. And if he's more concerned about a professional seeing your vagina (along with a with a zillion others every week), then he is with a doctor doing his job to protect your health, then he's got some serious issues!.
Just remind him that half the women that go to the Gyno are going because they have some serious funk going on!. Ask your b/f, if he had to spend the day seeing stinky, drippy, sore infected vagina's all the time, would he still find it sexual!? I'm thinking not!. The doc is there to help women, not to get off from it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
