I've only seen a dentist, orthodontist, regular doctor and a chyropractor. Is there some other doctors I should see and what should I see them for?

If you have had your first menstrual cycle (period), you need to visit a gynecologist for an exam once a year. You should also be examined by a dermatologist, especially if you have moles so the doctor can "map" them (draw a picture) and use it to compare later in life (to check for skin cancer or other skin conditions when you are older). If your parents have the money, it's always a good idea to have a nutritionist check you out, too. Good luck!

The only dr that you really need to see for medical check ups is your regular dr and the optometrist (eye dr). If there is something wrong such as with your girl parts they may send you to a gynecologist.
In relation to the issue of virgins not getting exams annually from their dr whether it's a gynecologist or their regular dr unless something is wrong, that isn't always true. Many get their annual exam for that area starting at 18 or 21 years old even though they are a virgin.
I'm a 35 year old virgin and I get my annual exam for that area done every year. I had it done thru my regular dr for years until I started having problems there in my girl parts and then I turned it over to my gynecologist.
But to recap, the only dr you really need to see right now for medical stuff is your regular dr and the optometrist (eye dr). Your regular dr will let you and your parents know if other specialists need to come in to the picture if something is wrong.

If you are asking if you should see a gynaecologist, no, not yet. Women usually begin seeing a gynaecologist after they have lost their virginity. The reason being that at a gynaecological visit an internal exam is usually done and they will not do this on a woman who has not lost her virginity unless there is something wrong of great concern. So the doctors you have seen are enough at this age.
It is hard to know what you mean. You are a KID. I have four of them and they have seen a GP(general practitioner) and one saw a Paediatric specialist but geez lighten up, you aren't supposed to be worrying about what doctors you haven't seen yet.

its embarrasing, yet no longer something to stress approximately, you need to do the two breast and pelvic tests ultimately. youll merely lay down on the examiners table, inclusive of your little gown on, the well being care provider will learn your breasts for many cancers, then she would be waiting to ask you to place your legs in stirrups. after that she would be waiting to do 3 issues, merely look ... down there ... for something that seems unusual, she would be waiting to swab for STDs, and she or he would be waiting to insert a metallic some thing or different to envision for systs greater up. the final is the worst, and its embarrasing, yet bear in mind this is going to be performed, and shes considered extremely some, yours in no distinctive, and if she does discover some thing undesirable (desire no longer) you would be chuffed you went. merely take a deep breath and each little thing would be superb.

There is no reason to see any other doctors unless you need to. I don't know why someone your age would even worry about this.

A Psychologist. Most females 13 years old have a host of so-called "issues" to resolve. Most of which are pointless.
