This is not true, it is NOT a law. It is good medical practice, and was for years a practicing guideline of the AMA. But no, it's not a law.

There's no need to panic about a first pelvic, though. I'd concentrate on finding a provider that you're comfortable with. Have a first "no exam, just getting to know her/him" visit first.
