You usually go once a year if you're sexually active or when you turn 18 years old.

there are several different reasons people go...theyre sexually active, they have irregular periods, need to be put on birth control, have extreme pms symptoms or are considering becomming pregnant. those are the ones i can think of besides theyre 18. it varies for everyone. <3

When you become sexually active or after you turn the age of eighteen, that's when you should start visiting a gynecologist.

Once you get your first period, you should start going to the gynecologist. If you're sexually active, you should definitely go to the gynecologist once a year. They'll check for any abnormalities as well as do a pap smear to screen for cervical cancer.

Either when you become sexually active, or when you turn 18, whatever comes first, as a general guideline. The only other time you would go before one of those things happens is if you think there is a problem. Hope I helped!

Some doctors recommend a visit to the Gynecologist once a year after the patient begins engaging in sexual intercourse, OR by the age of 18, whichever happens to come first. However, OTHER doctors say that after you get your VERY FIRST cycle, you should THEN start going for annual check ups. During this exam they will check you for cancer and STD's [should you happen to have one], so I think it's best to commence visitation RIGHT after your first period. Better safe than sorrie......
