Medical Question
For something I'm writing, I need to know when doctors and other medical personnel not familiar with a patient would ask a female appearing patient questions like "when was your last period?", "when was your last gyno exam?" etc.
Oh, btw, this is a high school age patient.
Basically any questions they wouldn't ask a male patient.
Also, I know that for some tests & drugs (and possibly other situations) they get rather insistent about "Is there any chance you may be pregnant?"
Y'see said character *isn't* female, so much "fun" is likely to ensue in such situations.
(I've got a trans friend who hasn't even begun to transition, but has been asked when the last time they had a pap smear was by a new doctor. But they are way past high school age, so I expect the questions and situations will be a lot different)
