If i am going to the gyno for the first time cuz i have extra skin on vagina and can't use tampon..what will be done at my visit?

The GYN doctor: will take a look and see if there is any surgical procedure necessary or available to help you with your problem. If you do not have any active complaints, only the vulval skin fold, then they may offer for you to wait or use an alternative method of sanitation. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
