I have male PCP and had some some female problems, and not sure if it was because I was older or what, he dismissed my problems and actually missed the problem during pelvic exam. Seeing I was 65+ and had total hysterotomy in 40s this was first pelvic exam my PCP had done in 5 years. I followed up with a female PA in Mayo Rochester OB/Gyn area and she found a problem and was a wealth of additional information. Was it because she was a female or just a specialist, do not know. But, I will be seeing her annually for re-check.

I am a medical professional (PhD in Biomedical Sciences, specialized in infection control & prevention), and I have some difficult time to comprehend some specific male related issues, Because I have no body part that could relate to those of a man. All I know is from books or hear say.
I think that male doctors have a similar relation to specific female body parts, and i think it s better for me to see a female doctor for those purposes.
