There are a lot of female physicians out there. See if you can switch to their practice - especially for the female stuff.

Switch doctors. I am not comfortable with a male dr doing a pelvic exam on me, so I have a female gyn. U don't have to stay with a dr just because that's who you've gone to see ur whole life. U really don't hurt their feelings if u go to see someone else. If u like ur dr as a primary care dr, then just find another one to do the female stuff, and continue to see the other dr for everyday cooties.

I would let him know that your not comfortable with talking to him and having him as a doctor because he is male, and then ask if there would be a way to get a female doctor. Don't stay in an uncomfortable situation because you are afraid to ask, do it now....you'll be much happier once you do! Good Luck!! :)

You should feel comfortable talking to your doctor. Would you be more comfortable with a female doctor? Or maybe you are just shy?

Be honest and tell him of your concerns. A female GYN may be the best course for you to take.
