Answers:    You may be worried about your first pelvic exam. It's very commonplace to be anxious about something when you don't know what to expect. Hopefully after reading this, you will be comforted that it is simple, isn't painful and the actual pelvic exam takes with the sole purpose about 5 minutes. It is also normal to perceive embarrassed or uneasy about your first exam, I still surface embarrassed with mine and I've have may many pelvic examinations over the past 10 years due to womanly 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 perceive and will be sensitive and gentle, and answer any questions you may own.

There are other important reasons to hold a pelvic exam. These may include:

- Unexplained pain in your lower belly or around the pelvic nouns, where your vagina is;
- Vaginal discharge or wetness on your underwear that causes itching, burning or smells fruitless;
- No menstrual periods by age 15 or 16;
- Vaginal bleeding that lasts more than 10 days;
- Missed period; especially if you are having sex;
- Menstrual cramps so bad that you miss university or work.

During your first check up your gyno will ask you questions about:

- Your broad health, allergies and medications you are taking;
- Your menstrual time, such as how old you were when you first get it, how long it lasts, how often it comes, how much you bleed , the first morning that your last period started, if you hold cramps; and at what age your breasts started to develop.
- Whether you have ever had sex or hold been sexually abused.
- If you have vaginal itchiness or an unusual discharge or odor from your vagina.

If you find it comforting your partner or a friend can budge with you for support, bear contained by mind that they don't have to be present in the room when you are have the pelvic examination done. After you have given your medical history, be weighed and had your blood pressure checked, you will be asked to put on a gown. You will call for 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 feign 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 foot in stirrups (these are holders for your feet). With your knees bent, you will be asked to let your knees stumble to each side allowing your legs to spread apart. This is usually the part when most women surface embarrassed. This feeling is usual 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 adjectives parts of the pelvic exam are necessary. Ask your gyno which part or parts will be done for your nouns.

Your gyno will first look at the area outside of your vagina, (clitoris, labia, vaginal opening, and rectum).

Now some information just 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 orifice 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 considerately wipe away some of the cells from your cervix. This is a pap smear, which detects early change of the cervix before they become cancer. Most girls have commonplace pap smears.

If you are having vaginal discharge, your gyno will take another indication to check for a possible yeast infection and other causes of discharge. If you are having sex, your gyno will lug another sample from the cervix to check for sexually transmitted diseases. When all of these sample have been taken, your doctor will close the speculum and meekly take it out.

When the exam is over, your gyno will answer any questions you hold and tell you when to make your subsequent appointment. He/she will also talk to you about any medication you may need and tell you when and how you will take 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 be aware of uncomfortable or anything causes anguish, you have the right to stop your gyno and let him/her know.

Good luck. :).
