Question Posted Sunday March 24 2013, 10:03 am
I am 14 and I have an appointment with my doctor next week about gallstones.The date of my period is 28th of every month and they are quite regular.They lasts for one week.Please give me some quick home advice to make my periods come early because the doctor told my parents that he will take urine and some other tests.Please I will really thankful to you.
Being on you period will not interfere with the exam and I see no reason for the doctor to need to do an internal exam unless the doctor suspects the problem is not your gallbladder but a problem with an ovary. Even then an ultrasound will reveal more to the doctor than will be found from an internal exam.
As for the urine test. You will be handed a cup and asked to go into the rest room and pee into it. So try not to empty your bladder before going to the doctor.
The fact that your having your period will not interfere with the doctors exam and you will most likely not have to expose yourself to the doctor in that way as for doctor to see that you are having your period.
Note: At 14 years of age you are now old enough to see your doctor without a parent present in the exam room. This is granted under a federal law called HIPPA.
This law grants you certain medical confidentiality and privacy so you can talk freely with your doctor. For the most part this law grants you these rights for your reproductive health so that you and your doctor can talk freely without worry that anything will get back to your parents.
Since there is a chance the doctor will want to examine your ovaries as well as your gallbladder HIPPA will apply for this visit. If you wish mom to wait in the waiting room all you need to do is ask the doctor or the receptionist that you would like you HIPPA rights for this visit.

Also, there are no 'home remedies' or tricks to make your period come early.
But it's okay. Your doctor doesn't care if you are on your period.
Doctors treat the human body.
They understand that part of that means women will sometimes have their periods during tests and exams. In the vast majority of cases, having your period will not interfere with a urine test.
I understand it can feel a bit awkward. I had to go to a doctor for a test once while on my period and I'm a pretty secure adult - but I still felt icky about it. They doctor was fine tho, and shrugged it off. When you think about it, you have to realize that its' probably something 1 in 5 adult women they treat in a day will menstruating. It's unusual for you and I to have someone that close to us during that time, but for your doctor, it's all in a day's work.
The best thing you can to do tell your mom "Hey, I'll be on my period during that appointment. Should we call the doctor and make sure that all the tests can still be done?" It would be a good idea to double-check, but it's probably just fine. [ Razhie's advice column | Ask Razhie A Question ]
