Question

Red_Arrow · Accepted Answer

On the other side, my proctologist is male, but every other doctore I have seen for a long time has been female, including my urologists. Primary physicians saw the whole family and we chose female for my daughter's sake. I foiund them easier to get along with and more attentive, so I stuck with them for m0ost of my doctor needs.

Besides, All the handling I have had down there has been by females, so might as well make the doctors female, also. lol

i reckon female. id be more comfortable. i know this sounds weird, but i get a little weirded out by being touched at the doctor's, like when they're checking your breathing with the stethoscope and stuff. I'm okay when a female doctor does it, but i tense up when it's a guy. i feel stupid about it but i can't help it I don't know why.

As a woman, I totally don't have a care for the gyne's gender as I'm comfortable with both genders and I guess so they are.

My mother, while delivering my brother, had a male gyne. Only years later, I understood why. He must have been so comforting and gentle when she was in so much of pain.

I chose C, by the way.

A female would have a better personal understanding of what I'm experiencing with more routine tests. I've heard a lot of nasty stories about male gynecologists misunderstanding and ignoring things that women have told them because they just don't get it.

Definitely Neil DeGrasse Tyson. He has an astrophysics degree that's necessary because my vag is out of this world.

I don't really care, but even though a male could be well informed an educated I just feel like having a female one would be better because she literally has all the parts I do, and could possibly relate to some things we discuss.

Doesn't matter I've had both. It's professional so it makes no difference

I would just feel more comfortable with a female gyno, it would be less awkward to explain experiences to her

I'm just more comfortable with a female one. I prefer a female GP as well. I think most people are probably best served by a doctor of their own gender.

Not gonna lie, I feel way more comfortable with my gynecologist being a fellow woman.

Mustachekitteh · Answer

Female because a male would creep me out and that would probably bug my boyfriend a good bit.

If I absolutely have to choose one gender over the other, then I guess I'd choose female, but I don't think it really matters? The last gynecologist I went to was a guy and he was really, really sweet :P

EllieLexis513 · Answer

I prefer male, but overall, I don't really care. My current one is a female and she's awesome.

I just recently had my first appointment and I was kind of freaking out because I had a male doctor. But he was nice and made me feel comfortable. I'd still prefer a female.
