A member asked:
Is it necessary to have had a period in order to visit the gyno for the first time?

Confusing post: Do you mean you have never had menses or does it need to be timed around a visit. I think it is reasonable for you to visit a gynecologist at any point you have questions they could answer for you. At a listed age of 17 I would certainly go if you never had menses, ever.

Agree with Dr. F: It would be good to see a gynecologist whether you have had a period or not. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health!
