Phobia

I'm not yet 17 and not sexually active, but I've been thinking and worrying about my first visit to the gynecologist. I literally have a phobia of the process - merely thinking about it very nearly causes me to vomit. True, phobias are all illogical, but what is involved in it seems to me just like rape... lesbian-style, I mean.

If my mother makes me go, I will have to be physically restrained throughout the process. Is it legal for them to be able to do that? Would it be beneficial to me in the long run to be forced to go once at 18 and then be scarred beyond hope of ever going again? It seems that I should wait until such things would not be necessary. I don't see how I could be wrong on this question, but I'd like some qualified support for my opinion.
