Gyno appt on period?

I have an appointment tomorrow for what I think is a yeast infection that won't go away. The thing is, I just started my period. Should I keep the appointment or reschedule?

Give the Dr. A call. If it is for a yeast infection exam, they will haveyou come in. If it is also for your yearlies then they usually try to reschedule.

I'd call and ask. If you were getting your yearly exam, I'd say reschedule because most won't do that while you're on your period. But being a yeast infection, they might not want to wait until your period is over to confirm and treat that.

If it makes you feel self-conscious, reschedule. But I've been told before by a couple of gynecologists that they've seen it all before and it doesn't weird them out or anything.

You'd have to ask the person who is going to be sticking their face in that.
