[quote=Anonymous]It's also good for your teen to start taking baby steps towards taking responsibility for her own health care. Baby steps so that when she goes to college, she is confident having a conversation with a doctor and advocating for herself. My DD was uncomfortable the first time this happened, mostly because they talked about things that were embarrassing (female dr) but the next year, she was ready and perfectly willing to continue that conversation on her own. If your doctor is a male, there is normally a female nurse in the room too.[/quote]
