Going to the gynaecologist can be an awkward experience, but it's a necessary visit women must make to stay healthy.
This is because they don't care about the little things such as whether you're shaved, if you have your period or what your toenails look like. Taking to social media, the experts have shared five things your gynaecologist wants you to know, including one pointless patient habit they find particularly funny.
"Number two - we know that you have periods. We're not worried about that. Even if you're bleeding, come in. A lot of times, we don't even have to do a pelvic exam and it will have no bearing on what we do or talk about that day." Lastly, there's one hilarious thing many women are guilty of that they say you can stop doing straight away. They explained: "Number four - we know you wear underwear. You don't need to hide it from us, so don't worry about that. Quit folding it and putting it between your shirt and pants. It's fine."
