When was your first Gynecology Exam?

Nineteen years old. I was not stoked on it.

I was 20 or 21. Fantastic time.

I was 18 my for my first gyno exam. I've been obsessed ever since!

My wife had her first about a year after we married at the age of 21. She's not a fan. 😃

In my 20s.

I was 18 for my first exam

I'm 21 and still haven't been. There aren't really any specific regulations here as far as a I know, it's more considered to be a requirement once you become sexually active. It's quite frustrating though because I love Medfet but I'm terrified of actually going to the gynecologist!

I was 17 and super nervous but my best friend was with me so it made it a little better!

I went for the first time when I was 15 because I had basically started a period that really didn't entirely stop for almost 2 years. When I had asked about it previously, I had been told it was "just spotting" and didn't think to question it further because I was shy and embarrassed. Anyway, I was terrified and humiliated. I wouldn't say any of it hurt, but it was cold and uncomfortable. My doctor ordered a transvaginal ultrasound the same day, and as a virgin, that probe looked huge. It ended up not being terrible, just awkward. Diagnosis: Hemorrhaging ovarian cysts. 2 months on birth control, and they were gone. I actually ended up crying afterward because I felt so embarrassed by it all.

Quick note, the age of a first pap smear being at 21 was implemented about a year before "Obamacare" was even proposed. I would know because I was 18 at the time and wondering about my first exam/pap smear, and my doctor said that age 21 was the standard for healthy women who weren't high-risk. Also, it's perfectly safe to prescribe birth control pills without an exam for most women. That's why Plan B (hormonal birth control) is available to adult women without a prescription.

I had my first complete pelvic exam when I turned 21. I had had a brief exam (manual only) when I was 18 due to some health issues.

I was 20 on my first gyno exam. A was so nervous, all my body was shaking. It hurt a little because i wasnt relaxed at all.

Mom took me when I was about to turn 16, to her Gynie. He was so old, and his nurse was even older.

I was 18. Just last year. It was to go on the pill 😃

My first Exam was when I was 19 and I was so scared and embarrassed that I was crying almost the entire time. If I was better prepared for the actual reality of what was about to be done I think I wouldn't have been so upset. However, I don't think anything can prepare a young girl for the first time a metal speculum is inserted into her.

The doctor was older and gruff and not very compassionate with young girls. When he was done with the pelvic he took off his gloves so I thought he was done.... but he wasn't. He told the nurse to try to calm me down and to hold my hand while he did the rectovaginal exam. The only thing I heard were the words "rectovaginal exam" and that made me cry even more. I still don't know why he did a rectovaginal exam when I was 19 because I never had another gynecologist do that to me again until about 15 years later. Maybe because it was my very first gynecological exam. When my doctor does that part now, I don't cry anymore 😃

At 18 my mother told me I should think about seeing a gyno for a check up. Within a month I had seen one

I was 18 and was mainly just seeking contraception. I hadn't had sex yet, but I thought it was good to start taking something since I was in college. I went to the student clinic by myself, and the doctor was wonderful. She was very nice and made me feel very comfortable. It went about as smoothly as a first exam could go.

I had my first vaginal exam when I was 19 I think. I had just lost my virginity to my then-boyfriend, and after a few nights of vigourous sex, I was feeling itchy (sorry, TMI!). Anyways, I went to the campus clinic. I was wearing a summer dress and after hearing about my symptoms, the female doctor asked me to slide my panties off, lie down, and scoot down to the end of the table. She then guided my feet into stirrups. This was sadly the first and only time I have ever had my feet in stirrups. All pelvic exams I've ever had since have been in the frog leg position. I have been longing to get myself into stirrups (knock on wood that I don't "need" to be in stirrups, I.e. a bad medical condition requiring it). But for fun or a routine exam. Anyways, I had a gyno fetish long before I was 19 because of a fantasy I read in a Nancy Friday book when I was 15 which ended up fermenting in my mind for years and years.

I wish I could say I loved it... I was 19 and hated it. I was so nervous I was shaking.

I was 18 and was having issues with dizziness and passing out during the first couple of days of my period, along with really heavy flow and severe cramps. It wasn't diagnosed at the time but I recently found out (almost 10 years later) that I have PCOS so I'm wondering if that wasn't what was going on even then.

My wife had her first gyn exam at the age of 20 (26 years ago). She went there to get the BC pill and I came with her for support.

First she had to do some paperwork. After that she was sent to the restroom to give aurine sample and next blood pressure was controlled and they got her weight, height and so on.

Then we had to go back to the waiting room for about 15 min when the Nurse called her back. She asked me to come with her and so we went to the exam room where the doctor (a female one) already had been waiting.

She was asked to take offher blouse and the doctor performed a breast exam. Then she put on the blouse again and took aoff skirt and panties. Next she had to take seat on the "chair" and place her legs in the legholders. (The chairs in Germany are a little different to the ones used in the US. They don't have just stirrups but legholders, which hold the legs under the knee and parts of the lower leg - so the feet are kind of high in the air)

No I was the one to get surprised because the doctor asked her if she would mind having me a closer look. My girlfriend (That time we were not yet married) agreed and so the doctor asked me to get behind her and watch what was to come now.

First the doctor put on a pair of gloves and then slid two fingers of the left Hand into my girlfriend's vagina. With her left hand she moved in the vagina and with her rigth hand she tried to feel the uterus and the ovaries through the abdomen.

When she was ready she took a speculum and inserted into the vagina, took some looks using a colposcope and collected a sample from the cervix using a cervix brush.

Then she removed the speculum and performed a rectovaginal exam. When the doctor slid a finger into her anus my girlfrined looked really surprised. That was a Thing she had'nt counted with.

With that the exam was done, my gf put her clothes on agin and got the prescription for the BC pill and we left the doctor's office.

I was 18 and was becoming sexually active, which meant I needed birth control. What a weird deal where you have to be on display to get some oral pills. Anyway, it was very fast. Just a quick speculum and no cervical swab, definitely no rectovag.

I was 14 when I had my first exam. My doctor was a man and very kind and gentle. He did his best to explain things. I didn't become turned on by it until a few years later. I worried that my doctor knew that I was becoming aroused by his insertion of the speculum, but if he noticed he never said anything.

I need to go for one soon .. I keep delaying it .. but my mom is on my back continuously about getting it done .. I'm 23

I was 19 and my mother had been bugging me to go for a year. So she ended up making the appointment for me and gave me a two week notice. It was right before i started my sophomore year at college.

When I was 16, I had my first gyno exam. My mother had told me that I needed to have one done from then, until I was a legal adult. She made me go every year from age 16-21, meaning I had 6 gyno exams before the age of 21. After I was 21, I went only when I had to, but now in the past 4 years, I have gone either once a year or twice a year.

I was 18 and had never had one and thought it was about time. I have always kept my pubic area either completely shave or very trimmed. The gyno was my first encounter with a lesbian. She kept rubbing her fingers across what little hair i had. She asked me if it tickled.

It was for a routine smear with the nurse at the GP's earlier this year, I'm 20 but had it done earlier than 25 due to family medical history, my sister had one as well although she had to have it done by the GP due to her age, and he gave her an internal as well as the smear

I was 16 when I had my firs gyno exam and have had them yearly since...

I was 17 when I had my first gyne exam, and it was a surprise. I had gone to the doctor for complaints of abdominal pain (it was appendicitis) and they did a full pelvic exam. I distinctly remember the doctor fingering my cervix and telling me that's what it was... it felt amazing. Being a virgin, that was the first time any man had ever had his hands down there, more less inside of me. Definitely a memorable experience.

I was 19 or 20 and about to get married and wanted a prescription for birth control. I had had very painful, heavy periods for years plus I wanted to keep away the babies so the birth control served a dual purpose. They would not give a prescription without an exam and pap smear. I was a virgin and the nurse practitioner guy who did it was just awkward though he was gentle and not unattractive. He got the job done and I got the prescription. The hormonal ring did its job, too. No babies and lighter, less crampy periods.
