You may be worried about your first pelvic exam!. It's very normal to be anxious about something when you don't know what to expect!. Hopefully after reading this, you will be reassured that it is simple, isn't painful and the actual pelvic exam takes only about 5 minutes!. It is also normal to feel embarrassed or uneasy about your first exam, I still feel embarrassed with mine and I've had may many pelvic examinations over the past 10 years due to female related problems I'm experiencing!.
However, if you know what to expect, it may help you relax!. I'm sure your gyno understands how you feel and will be sensitive and gentle, and answer any questions you may have!.
There are other important reasons to have a pelvic exam!. These may include:
- Unexplained pain in your lower belly or around the pelvic area, where your vagina is;
- Vaginal discharge or wetness on your underwear that causes itching, burning or smells bad;
- No menstrual periods by age 15 or 16;
- Vaginal bleeding that lasts more than 10 days;
- Missed periods; especially if you are having sex;
- Menstrual cramps so bad that you miss school or work!.
During your first check up your gyno will ask you questions about:
- Your general health, allergies and medications you are taking;
- Your menstrual period, such as how old you were when you first got it, how long it lasts, how often it comes, how much you bleed , the first day that your last period started, if you have cramps; and at what age your breasts started to develop!.
- Whether you have ever had sex or have been sexually abused!.
- If you have vaginal itchiness or an unusual discharge or odor from your vagina!.
If you find it comforting your partner, a friend or if you are still young, your Mum can go with you for support, bear in mind that they don't have to be present in the room when you are having the pelvic examination done!. After you have given your medical history, been weighed and had your blood pressure checked, you will be asked to put on a gown!. You will need to remove your clothes including your underwear and bra!. A breast exam is often done as a routine part of this check-up!.
Your gyno will explain the steps to the exam and ask you to lie down on the exam table!. You will be given a sheet to put over your stomach and legs!. You will then be asked to move down to the end of the table and place your feet in stirrups (these are holders for your feet)!. With your knees bent, you will be asked to let your knees fall to each side allowing your legs to spread apart!. This is usually the part when most women feel embarrassed!. This feeling is normal too!. Just remember that although this is your first exam, this is routine for your gyno and their only concern is for your health!.
There are 3 parts to this exam!. Sometimes not all parts of the pelvic exam are necessary!. Ask your gyno which part or parts will be done for your examination!.
Your gyno will first look at the area outside of your vagina, (clitoris, labia, vaginal opening, and rectum)!.
Now some information about the papsmear!. The speculum is an instrument made of metal or plastic!. Your gyno will place the speculum into your vagina!. After it is inserted, it will be gently opened so that your gyno can see your vagina and your cervix (the opening to your uterus)!.
After checking your vagina and cervix, your gyno may take a thin plastic stick and a special tiny brush or a small "broom" and gently wipe away some of the cells from your cervix!. This is a pap smear, which detects early changes of the cervix before they become cancer!. Most girls have normal pap smears!.
If you are having vaginal discharge, your gyno will take another sample to check for a possible yeast infection and other causes of discharge!. If you are having sex, your gyno will take another sample from the cervix to check for sexually transmitted diseases!. When all of these samples have been taken, your doctor will close the speculum and gently take it out!.
When the exam is over, your gyno will answer any questions you have and tell you when to make your next appointment!. He/she will also talk to you about any medications you may need and tell you when and how you will get the results of the exam!.
I hope this information helps you out!. Best of luck and remember to try to relax!. If at any time during your examination, you feel uncomfortable or anything causes pain, you have the right to stop your gyno and let him/her know!.
Good luck!. :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

you should be a little nervous because it is your first time for this kind of exam but be of good cheer because a nurse will be with you for support!. the doc will examine your breast for any unusual lumps, then they will do an examination of your ovaries which involves the doctor inserting a finger into your vagina and pressing on your lower abdomen which doesn't hurt at all!. the last and most important thing the doc will do is the pap smear!. he/she will insert a plastic speculum into your vagina that opens you up slightly then he/she will take a long mascara brush type thing and will gently scrape your cervix to get some cells to send to a lab to check for any early signs of precancerous growth!. after that you should be good to go until next year!. you should then recieve your script for birth control!. it sounds scary but it really isn't anything to be worried about!. you will be fine!. good luck!.

WEll i went to planned parenthood and i was told that i could get a conference with them which went over my history to see if i was applicable for birth control or i could have a yearly exam!. I went ahead and had the yearly exam because i had aslo not had my period for two months and she said i was 20 and it was probably time for me to have one thats the only reason why i had the yearly exam!. It will be ok and will go by real fast just a lil uncomfortable and i dont think they will stick their finger up ur butthole they stick their finger up ur vagina and put pressure on ur vagina walls to fell ur ovaries for any tumors!. But im sure u will be just fine just relax i was very nervouse too!. Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
When I first went on the pill all they did was ask a lot of questions about my and my family's medical history (e!.g!. blood pressure, heart problems, epilepsy etc!.) and whether I was on any other medication!.
They then weighed me and took my blood pressure and that was it!.
Nothing to be nervous about!.
They've never shoved their fingers anywhere except when I've gone for a pap smear- which is not your butt!Www@Answer-Health@Com
