Adolescent Gynecology at Harsh Hospital
First periods, cycles that feel unpredictable, or questions a teenage girl is too shy to ask? Growing up brings plenty of changes, and gentle, friendly guidance makes all the difference.
The teenage years are a time of big changes, and it is completely normal for young girls and their parents to have questions about periods, body changes and what is healthy.

We explain things simply, never rush, and always make sure both the young patient and her parents feel comfortable, informed and reassured. Every visit is a safe space to ask anything at all.

Frequently Asked Questions
At what age should a girl first see a gynecologist?
There is no fixed age. A friendly visit is helpful whenever there are questions or concerns, such as periods that are very painful, very irregular, or have not started by the mid-teens. Often the visit is simply for reassurance and guidance.
Is it normal for a teenager’s periods to be irregular?
Yes, very often. In the first couple of years after periods begin, cycles can be unpredictable as the body settles into its rhythm. We are always happy to check and reassure you if anything feels worrying.
Will my daughter need an internal examination?
Almost never. Most adolescent concerns are sorted through a gentle conversation and, occasionally, a simple test. We would never carry out anything that is not necessary, and your daughter’s comfort always comes first.
Can teenagers really have PCOS?
Yes, PCOS can begin in the teenage years, sometimes showing as irregular periods, acne or weight changes. Spotting it early means we can offer gentle, supportive care and good habits that help for years to come.
Can I stay with my daughter during the visit?
Of course. You are welcome to be present, and we also make sure your daughter has space to ask her own questions if she wishes. Our goal is for both of you to feel comfortable and reassured.
