Am I normal?

One of the most common questions new patients ask is, “Is my ________ normal?” And it breaks my heart.

 

Usually, they’re asking about their vagina, but there are so many other body parts or feelings or symptoms that society has taught us to feel insecure about. That ends when you walk into my office.

 

Happy Down There is a no judgement zone. There is nothing--and I mean nothing--that will ever get you judged, embarrassed or shamed around here. There is no such thing as normal, so guess what? You can’t ever be abnormal! We are all perfectly unique, and that’s awesome. If we all looked the same, life would be so boring.
