usually when you become sexually active, or around the ages of 16-18. whichever comes first.

You're actually supposed to go to the gynecologist starting when you become sexually active, or at eighteen. It's far more important to be safe than it is to save face in front of your doctor, so make an appointment as soon as you can!

Alot of girls start going when they're around 16-18. It's up to you though, just don't wait forever. And don't worry about the doctor knowing about it, it's not their place to tell anyone.

Well you can go whenever you want to. There's really no age. I guess just when a mother wants to take their daughter there for a check up for cervix cancer?
The doctor can tell that you aren't a virgin. But they aren't supposed to tell your parents.

Usually, it is said that you should start getting your "yearly's" done when you start having your period. Now, the Dr. will be able to tell if you have been sexually active, but, don't worry, because they do stick to the patient/confidentiality rule & shouldn't tell your parents anything.
