Agree with this. Haven't seen a gyn since my last post partum visit about 10 years ago. Have pap done every 5 years by pcp. She also prescribes birth control. I don’t think ill ever see a gyn again.

For daughters i would focus on finding them a solid female pcp that can cover all things.[/quote]

So dumb.[/quote]

DP. So rude. 
Can we just agree that people and doctors vary? What might not work in some situations might work for others? Sheesh.[/quote]

No, I will not validate ignorance or ignoring medical advice. [/quote]

What medical advice did PP ignore? They are getting their pap done every 5 years. That is the current medical advice unless you have issues or complications that PP did not mention having.[/quote]

Pap smear is only one tool that the GYNs use to assess health. It is extremely irresponsible to wait until your child has gyn issues to take them to the GYN. [/quote]

According to what authority?[/quote]

Read the thread!!!!

I did not see anything in there that requires all of that be done by a GYN. My kid’s pediatricians did all of that.[/quote]

No, they didn't.[/quote]

They absolutely did.[/quote]

Correction. Maybe they did not ask the invasive, grooming-adjacent questions about masturbation and transgender stuff. Which I’m ok with.[/quote]

Oh so you are a lunatic, just as suspected. [/quote]

Better lunatic than rabies.[/quote]
