What should i expect at my first birth control appointment?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Medical history: Clinicians who provide birth control will first take a careful medical history, asking questions about your general health, your menstrual periods, your sexual relationships (to assess risks of stds), your past gynecologic history, your family history. It's not necessary to have a gyn exam to get birth control (but may be a good idea).Testing for stds may be important as well. Write down your ?S.
