[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When do you take your daughter in for first gynecologist visit/exam? My 13 yo DD’s pediatrician said first pelvic exam by 21, but that seems late to me. Especially considering she is likely to be sexually active before then. [/quote] Key event is “sexually active.” But waiting until “that day” may be too late, and could have life-altering consequences beyond just an unwanted teen pregnancy. Bring her in soon to “just talk.” Make sure your gyn (or one you choose) is good with teens, and can deliver the right messaging on BC, but also: - condoms. This is crucial for any teen to hear. They need to hear it early, and often. Nothing else can protect her from disease transmission. [/quote]
