Do you need to see a gynecologist?

Check these out, too...

Find out now…

Lotsa girls are wary of the gyno. But Dr. Endrika Hinton, a gynecologist at Greater Baltimore Medical Center, says, “You can see a gynecologist any time you’re having problems, but go on a routine basis starting at age 16. This doesn’t mean you have to have a pelvic exam, especially if you are not sexually active.”

So do you need to go? If you answer yes to one or more of these questions, it’s time to make an appointment.

Are you having sex or thinking about it?

Are you over 16 and don’t have your period?

Is your period preventing you from doing what you want to do (super-painful, too heavy, etc.)?

Have you missed your period for more than four months in a row?

Do you have symptoms that could mean a vaginal infection (itching, off-color discharge, odor, etc.)?

Have stuff you want to discuss with a gyno?

MOD I'm 15 and don't have my period, do I need to see a gyno?

Hey girl,

Every girl gets their period at a different stages of their teenage years. But if you're really worried, you should go see a gynocologist. There's no harm in it. If you don't get your period by age 16, then you should definitely go see a gyno.

MODMODMOD How do i start a conversation leading up to telling my bff i got my period. I mean excact word and everything.

Hey girl,

If you and your BFF are really close, then you shouldn't be scared to tell her you got your period. You can start off by asking her if she got hers, and from there the conversation will flow more easily. With that conversation starter, you'll feel more comfortable letting her know that you got yours. Best of luck
