My daughter is 11 and has buds. and pubic hair. her check up is coming up soon. she has a male doctor. should she have a female?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not necessarily.: If your daughter has established a good relationship with her doctor, puberty shouldn't be a factor. A trusted physician will make the transition easier. Pediatricians are trained to address physical, emotional, educational, sexual and psychosocial changes that occur in puberty.
