I'm also 17, I've never been to a gynecologist. So your probably like, well why are you answering this. haha.
My mom went to her regular "check-up" and asked about when her daughter (me) should start going. The gyno said that you don't really have to go to the gynecologist until your 18 or if your sexually active. So, I'd say you can wait another year before you actually go.
Also, if there's a particular reason for going? Like irregular period? Bad cramps? Excessive bleeding? That's when you should go.
When you do go and get your pap smear, Don't freak out, Remember to Breathe!

Well my opinion on a pap smear on a virgin is diffrent than for a female that has had vaginal sex and is having a sexual life. Unless you are having symptoms or concerns or as mentioned having sex i wouldnt agree on a pap smear. Id still talk to a gynocologist for the valuable medical advice but as far as i know there no medical reasons just to have a papsmear. It is scary and it can be uncomfortable and even hurt im not trying to discourage you from ever haveing a pap smear but what i am saying is that i dont think you need one of course im no doctor but for what i have researched and studied i dont see a reason for you to have one done just beacause. I will always recommend professional medical advice, and my questions will be why do i need to have a pap smear if i dont feel any symptoms and i dont have a sexual active life? there is a virus that many are concerned about but let a doctor explain the story on that. If you do not feel youre ready or that you do not want to have a pap smear test performed on you dont as to how the proceudre is done is as follows
make sure you are seeing someone who specializes in pediateric gynocolgist ( for minors)
Usually the exam consists of
Examination of external genetalia
Papanicolaou ( pap) Test
Binmanual Examintaion
Rectovaginal Examination
In complete detail i can send to you via email. just ask
I hope this helps

gynocologist. It's really nothing to be afraid of. Some girls feel strange for their first time going, but its a 6 month procedure thats worth it. Better to be safe than sorry. You usually start going when you're 1) having sex or 2) have had your period regularly for two years. Typically at the gyno, they make sure everythings ok down there :) you can expect to get a pelvic exam and a pap test. The pelvic exam is to check for yeast infections, vaginal infections, bacterial vaginosis, stds, any pelvic organ abnormalities, etc etc. The pap test is also for that, and to check for cervical cancer. They're really important tests to do, because who knows what can go wrong down there. For the tests, you have your legs open, they insert a speculum into the vag to widen it a bit (doesnt hurt) a small sample is taken to check for anything, and after he feels up in the vagina to make sure everything is normal. I would go; its not too bad :)
