A member asked:

How to know if i have been sexually abused as a child?

Dr. Maya Haasz answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Sexual abuse: At this point, there will be no physical signs. I suggest you speak to a therapist about why you are suspecting abuse and explore the memories you have of childhood. Best of luck to you.
