It was a new dr whom I'd never seen before. Knowing I was there for a renewal of my birth control pill prescription she asked, "Do you use a second method of birth control?" To which I kind of chuckled internally and said, "No." She looked with those concerned doctorly/motherly eyes and said, "No?" To which I responded, "Well unless you consider sleeping with a woman as a second method?" Totally out of chracter for me. Guess I was feeling punchy...but if you can't joke with your gyno, who can ya' joke with?

my gyno always goes through the same questions:
"are you sexually active?"...."yes"
"are you taking birth control pills?"..."no"
"are you using another method of contraception?"...."no"
"do you think you may be pregnant at this time?"....."no"
and that's it. she never takes it any further.
perhaps I look more like a lesbian/bi than i think I do....lol.
awesome that you joke with your gyno...you are a punchy one.
