Girls, Do you get a breast and external vaginal exam at your regular doctors?

[Anonymous]

i'm sure this is common but my girlfriend has a primary care doctor and an obgyn. I didn't know though that even though she goes to a obgyn her primary care doctor still does a breast exam and an external vaginal exam. Is it common to have your primary care doctor do this even when you are seeing an obgyn?

It's common to have the PCP to do it. However, I will only see my gynecologist every year because she orders a mammogram in conjunction with the annual well-woman visit. My PCP is a man and he just asks if I have been to see my gynecologist.

Nah I don't like doctors touching me. I literally only go to the doctors while pregnant and I don't allow them to touch or see anything

Yes I have at my primary care physician as well as my gynecologist.

Yes, but my doctor is also a friend of mine.
