A 21 yr old woman asked her 29-30 year old woman friend(they're both Christians but the 29yr old is married, 21 is single) if she should see a gyno because she hasn't had any sexual desires at all. the 29yr old says no you shouldn't because that's a good thing and a blessing from the Lord that you don't have to deal with such temptation. Wait until you are married if it's still a problem THEN see a gyno.
Is the 29 yr old right?

1) No. She should see someone.
2) I don't think a gyno will find her libido down there. See a GP first.

Medically it's not right... but spirtually, 21-year old unmarried people should be estatic that they aren't horny. Pre-marital sex is one of the most damaging things to a person's moral fiber. My wife and I never had other partners, and 12 years later we are still very hot for each other. Many of my other friends that were more promiscuous do not hold their spouces in a very high regard, sexually. There is something very satisfying about knowing that I am the only one my wife has slept with.
Remember, the human body has all kinds of normal mechanisms that make you want to have sex... you don't need to do anything to push it along. Society today thinks you should just roll with your feelings... but life can be much more satisfying if you practice some self-restraint. The 29-year old was right... not having that temptation is actually a blessing.

Absolutely not. A gynocological exam is part of good general health care for women, it doesn't have to do so much with sex, as with "plumbing". The doctor is not originally going to be looking at her sex drive (or lack therof), she will be examining her female organs, screening her for diseases such as cancer, genital warts, and various infections. Since these can go undetected by women for a long time, a good gynocological exam should be performed at least once every 6 months.
If the 21-yr old woman is concerned about her sex drive (or lack thereof), she should first have a complete physical exam. Lots of things can absolutely KILL a woman's drive. Exhaustion is the biggest culprit! If she is physically fine, but still concerned, she may want to consider consulting a counselor.

No, the 29 yr old is wrong.
Venereal diseases can be transmitted by other means besides sexual contact. For instance if she hits the genetic lottery she could be born a carrier for such diseases, in which case she would be immune and show no signs of the disease and yet be able to transmit it to others.
Other such diseases can, although it is statistically improbable, be transmitted through such actions as kissing, unsanitary food, or unsanitary bathrooms.
Certain diseases, like syphilis, if left untreated can can lead to mental health problems.

It's not a gyno it's a shrink she needs. It's unnatural to have no sexual desires at 21 so there's probably some emotional or psychological problem rather than a physical one.

they are both wrong. she should see an endocrinologist or like somone else says a GP. Just because the problem has to do with sex doesnt automatically make it a gynecological problem. could be stress, related or a number of different things.
but seriously, that makes no sense just from a medical point of view if there is somthing wrong with her, (which there probably isnt) she should get it checked out as soon as possible just to make sure it is not somthing serious. If there is a legitimate problem you can't count on it spontaneously going away just because she get's married.

It is not right to have thoughts that just because you are a christian you need not have any worldly help. I remember Rev. Casey mentioned to use all possible endeavors.
There was this evanglist guy who told others that he could walk by faith on water and obviously he was testing God on that. (sad to say, he drowned.)
There's a fine line to draw. When in doubt, read the Bible, and talk to more christians of different views.

the 21 yr old should see a gyno at least once a year just for a check up.

Since she's not married, she really has no use for sexual desire, as that is to be used only by married couples, only.
I don't see it as a problem. It's actually a blessing, in that she has no desire to fornicate.
So, yes, the 29-year-old is correct.

No. She should still see the gyno. I'm not active and I see the gyno. My family has a history of cancer.
