How do I tell my mom I don't want her in the Gyno exam with me? Actually, I want her there, but I don't want her to know I have had sex. So I can't have her there. So how do I tell her I don't want her there without sounding suspicious or mean?
NEVERLETG00 answered Monday February 20 2006, 2:53 am: its not a big deal about going to the gyno, pretty much how ever old you are, all girls should go to the gyno after they have been sexually active and go to yearly visits. its nothing to hid from your mom, its showing that your being responsible and you want to know if everything is okay with you. she obviously wont be in the same room as the thing would happen, she would be in the waiting room or something. i'm sure she wouldn't be dissappointed about anything.

'Cause it's perfectly normal for your mom not to be in there. When I hit eighteen and have to go... HAH. I'm driving myself, my mom won't even be NEAR me. :)
I'd feel totally uncomfortable if someone else were in the room, and I'm sure your mom will understand that you feel this way (and though you might have other motives, she'll just assume you're uncomfortable with others in the room).

While your having some other conversation, just bring the subject up and tell her that you'd feel uncomfortable with her in the room, but you'd like her to wait outside or something like that. She'll respect your privacy and won't be suspicious or think you're being mean. :) [ fish34's advice column | Ask fish34 A Question ]

Tell her it's your body and you'd prefere if you could keep it private to yourself and you doctor. She should completely understand. [ Basketball3846's advice column | Ask Basketball3846 A Question ]
AbbyMichelle answered Sunday February 5 2006, 8:35 pm: Just tell her you're more comfortable without her there. She won't take it as hard as you think she will; I know HER mother didn't go in there with her. Be nice and say, "Mom...I don't really feel right with you going in with me." She won't get mad. Or get suspcious. She'll understand that it's private. Between you and the doctor. [ AbbyMichelle's advice column | Ask AbbyMichelle A Question ]
