It sounds like she have something bad occur the last time she go to a gynecologist so I would recommend that she talk to her primary perfectionism dr as well to see if they can back her find some additional resources (which may include some counseling near either a social worker-yes some of them can be licensed counselors-or a psychologist that works beside people who own phobias) to help her seize over her fear of going to the gynecologist.

She might have issues next to the male doctors so, look up and find a correct female doctor (no pun intended). She wishes to realize the importance of regular check ups. Cervical cancer is a most important killer and the just way to detect it is beside an exam and pap smear.

Get her talking and see if she will tell to some other friends about her fears. If she is a mom, approach her near " you want to be around for your children don't you"? I know that sounds unfair, but too several people die every twelve months that a visit to a doctor could own caught a serious illness and prevented a redundant death.

Health-care providers are within the life in your favour business and can only do their job when people be in motion and see them. Offer to go near her as moral support. Sometimes, all it take is a good friend to be within someones corner.

Am i too hairy?

Why don't you contribute to go next to her to the gynecologist? I think it might be willing if she went to a younger feminine gynecologist. I personally dislike going to the gynecologist, and part of this stems from the first exam I ever have, when I was still a virgin, and the doctor DID NOT BELIEVE that I really be and just did this really invasive exam.

Maybe you two could shift to her first appointment together, and she could even tell the GYN she is afraid and a short time ago wants to address the first time, and she will come back for an exam the subsequent time. They might even be able to endow with her a relaxing medication such as Ativan if she has such the creeps of this.

There is no reason for your friend to be embarassed. Going to the GYN is not the most pleasant experience in the world.

But since she really does requirement to go at lowest once every two years, especially if she is sexually active, she may stipulation some special help from a psychotherapist to get over this.

It is nice you are concerned give or take a few your friend.
