i am a pharmacist and i have worked in a hospital before. i have worked with several doctors in different fields. and they always find problems with patients who are embarrassed to open up with them. they want to help the patients in diagnosing their diseases but they find it hard if the patients won't allow them to open up with them. it's a hand to hand work to be successful. i never feel ashamed to ask. if you are, then be sure to have a lady OB. that way, you'll feel more comfortable. plus, just don't worry. everything is confidential. just open up so you can have the right medication prescribed to you.

I've always been afraid to go in and ask anything. I've still never been to one. I keep thinking about it, but always chicken out. I don't want someone looking at me there other than my girlfriend. I'll probably just sit there shaking and not ask anything when I finally go in.
