Yes, I don't see why not.
Edit: It is very strange that he wants to come. This situation does not sound right at all. And there's no reason for him not to trust you. That's really ridiculous. It's a medical appointment. It's not like you're there because you like it. He sounds like he has some serious jealousy issues. Your gynecology appt. is none of his business if you are not comfortable with it, and especially if you haven't been intimate yet. This should not be a way for him to sneak a peek at you nude. This guy doesn't sound right.

First, if the gyn is a male, he should have a female nurse in there with him. Second, you can have anyone in the room that you please.
EDIT: If your bf has never seen you nude, then he has no business in there. A gyn exam is not the way for your bf to see you nude for the first time. As far as him not "trusting" the gyn, it's not his problem. A male doc doing a gyn exam almost always has a female nurse in with him to protect himself against accusations. If yours does not, ask him to call a female in before he starts the exam.

you can have anyone you want for as much of it as you want and as he wants to be there for ir you're of age (over 18).
Patient confidentiality allows the discussion in front of whomever you feel comfortable with. It would be different if you were there without you're bf and then the bf asked the doctor questions. If you haven't given permission, usually in writing, then others cannot be told what you discussed.
This is all based on being of age.
For underage, ask the clinic/office staff. They can let you know about your rights, who can accompany you, and who can know the information the doctor shares with you.

You are allowed to bring him, but I think in your situation you shouldn't. In fact, it worries me a great deal that he wants to come. It seems like this is some sort of way for him to see you naked, or that he wants to control you. Either way it's a cause for concern, and you might want to consider not dating him anymore.

You can bring anyone with you that you want but when it is time for the exam, he will have to stay in the waiting room. They are not allowed to share information with anyone but the patient when you are seen.

I'm sure he can come with you, I don't know if he can go into the room with you, though. Call your doctor and ask if that would be okay. I don't see why it wouldn't.

i think J B is right. is patient confidentiality. the doctors can't break that. but if you still aren't sure, then call you doctors office and ask. that never hurt anyone, and it will prepare you.

I think if you are underage and so is he, they will only allow your mom or gaurdian there. Otherwise, there is no problem with it.
If you are not comfortable with it, then don't do it.

I don't see why not. The question is "would he want to go and why?"
