Question I have had my period for over a month now. I'm afraid to go to the doctor, because I dont want someone feeling around in my private parts. I've recently really changed my diet, but my mom said that probably wouldnt affect me. I really dont want to go to the doctor until I absolutely have to.. any suggestions?
Answer Dear worried,
Have you had your period constantly for a whole month with no breaks? If so, you do need to see a gynecologist. I know you are scared, but something is probably seriously wrong. I know I was scared when I first visited the gynecologist. I was freaked! But it is worth it. Just remain calm, it'll be all right!!! If you need anything else, I'm right here for you!
