14 too young for exam?From: Marcy (anonymous@obgyn.net)Mon, 26 Jan 1998 20:46:35 -0600 (CST)
I took my 14 y/o daughter to our local doctor as she was having very painful periods. He lifted my daughters dress, exposing her panties, he pressed on her stomach in several places. He then asked her to remove her panties as he was going to do an internal examination. My daughter was shocked and so was I. My daughter removed her panties and he explained what he was going to do. He firstly did a pap smear. Then he did a manual examination, I saw him insert two fingers up her. She was not expecting all this and was clearly distressed by it all. The outcome not much better as he still had no explanation. He just put her on the pill. I feel that she was invaded at 14 to have such a throuogh examination. She is not sexually active yet. Is it normal for such a young girl to be examied in such a way for painfull periods?
