13 year old doctor appt. ?

Question

Ok i am 13, and i am going to the doctor for a regular checkup in a couple weeks and i have gotten my period. what stuff can i expect now that i have my period. btw,i will not have my period on the day of the checkup.

Answer 1

they'll as you how long you've been having your period, if it's light or heavy, if you've gotten any cramps or anything, what day you got it, and if your changing your pads regularly

OH AND HE WILL NOT STICK A COTTON BALL IN YOUR v****a, thats called a papsmear not a check-up

Answer 2

nothing out of the ordinary, they might ask if you've started and when but that's all.  

Answer 3

i doubt for a regular check up youll have to do much of that unless your expecting a papsmear.... if so do the doc a favor and reschedule  

Answer 4

you shouldn't expect anything different.  the doctor may ask you if you have gotten it and if you have any problems with it, but that's about all.

Its your chance though to discuss any questions or concerns you might have.

Answer 5

Nothing unusual will happen.  If this is just a regular physical exam (and it sounds like it is) the doctor will probably ask you if you've begun menstruating yet.  You can just tell him "yes" and he'll write that on your chart.  That's it!  No big deal!

Answer 6

ummm I went for a physical which I guess is similar...I am 13 too... And they ask lots of questions and they sometimes look at your privates and boob but yea and it isn't that bad if u like ur dr.

Answer 7

Are you actually scheduled for a pelvic exam?  If not, then it shouldn't be much different from any of your other check-ups.  They just will want to know the start date of your last period, and they'll probably ask some questions about regularity and cramps.

Answer 8

Nothing will change except the doctor will ask you about your periods -- if they are regular (monthly) and if your flow is heavy or not.

You shouldn't get a pelvic exam until you become sexually active (which I am not recommending, just pointing out!)

Answer 9

well when you go to the doctor, they will tell you what you need to know if you ask them questions. idk what exactly you mean by "stuff i can expect now" but it's pretty much like normal life. your body has to get into the routine of having your period every month now. i get really moody when im on my period and i get really bad cramps. but a little medicine will take care of that.

hope i kinda helped.

Answer 10

Your doctor will basically ask if your period is okay and stuff. She will do all the normal stuff and may check your b***s and "down there". But don't worry if you want your mom can stay with you if you feel more comfortable. Personally I didn't. Also she might ask you if you smoke and do drugs. But it's not scary or anything, I felt fine. Don't worry!

Just to let you know, when I meant she checks "down there" I didn't mean she stuck a cotton ball there, I just meant she just peaked. Btw, I'm 14 so this all happened last year for me.

Answer 11

Don't listen to Klara. The doctor won't do that. It's just a regular checkup. They'll just ask you, "have you gotten your period yet?" and you'll say yes and they'll continue asking other questions and do everything else they've done since you were a baby. Don't sweat it.

Answer 12

Congratulation!  Welcome to womanhood!!  Nothing much will change, you have probally already begun to notice subtle changes in your body.  b*****s developing etc.  I didn't really notice mood swings until I got older.  But everyone is different.  xox
