going to a walk-in clinic for first gynecological exam?
i’m 17 and i’ve never been to a gyno. I went to a walk in medical center for an ear infection and she let me know that they do gynecological exams and other stuff. it caught my attention because i think i might have BV, and recently started getting white clumpy discharge as well as itching/burning so I might have a yeast infection on top of it, too. (sucks, i’m not even sexually active). Anyway, i am scared about my first exam, and i wanted to know if there is any disadvantage to going to a walk in clinic over a strictly gynecological clinic? are they less qualified? or is everyone equally qualified to do gynecological exams? these symptoms are very bothersome and i really really don’t want to be misdiagnosed.
ps, can you have 2 infections on top of each other? ugh that makes me feel so nasty.
