First time gyno appointment
Reply With Quote
You've had a miscarriage and never saw a gyno?! Yikes lady.
Well, it is good you are going now. There's not much anyone can tell you that will make you feel better about getting a check up. It's just plain unpleasant. The only advice I can give you is don't rush in and out of there and be sure to tell the doc everything and ask lots of questions. Tell her/him it is your first visit and that you are nervous and they'll try to make it as comfortable as possible. Just keep in mind that it's for your own good and for you health and well being.
It's hard to relax when someone is poking and prodding you but being tense only makes it harder. You'll get a breast exam, they'll listen to your heart and lungs, take your weight and you'll get a pap. Basically just an overall check to make sure you are healthy and everything is working properly.
Good luck and try not to work yourself up over it. From my experience, gynos are far friendlier and much more caring and comfortable than a regular doctor so you should be just fine.
