This is common: 1st, a thorough history of the problem; next a brief general exam, look at her external genitalia. An exam does not necessarily require using the stirrups, speculum, nor bimanual (internal) exam. The history and preliminary exam will determine what, if more, needs to be done. Don't be apprehensive, approach it like a dr. Trip for sore throat-matter of fact. Dr. Is here to solve the problem.
