I have a gyno appoint tom. for possible endometriosis & i have my period. the nurse told me to still come to the app. how should i prepare for this?

Exam on menses: As a gyn I examine patients on their period all time. No special prep other than you will want to remove a tampon right before the appointment. Also, your gyn may not want to do a speculum exam. He/she may just need to do an internal exam and schedule any additional work up needed.
