You don't have to shave unless you would like to. I go to a pediatrician and don't shave mine (mainly because I only have razors enough for my armpits and legs) and she hasn't said anything. It isn't a necessity to shave down there, and unless you feel comfortable with doing so and want to, you don't have to. It's likely your doctor has seen pubic hair before and won't care, they're there to help you, not judge.

Not at all. It's nothing wrong and it doesn't look bad !

You don't have to shave if you don't want too. It isn't a requirement for anyone to shave while visiting the doctor. Pubic hair is something that happens during puberty...TO ALL OF US. I prefer to be shaved because I can't stand hair anywhere on my body except for on my head. But, that's just MY personal preference.

No way you have to do shave for that reason. I would do it for a bf but not for a dr. visit

You don't have to shave unless you want to shave it. I don't because personally, I'd freak having a razor down there.... *shudders* I don't shave, at all.

As others have said, you do what you would like and you DON'T need to shave.

I'll try not to get to graphic here, but lets just say when I got my physical - I felt bad for the doctor that had to do it. He actually even made a comment about how much hair I had (not even pubic hair, but overall hair: Legs, Stomach, arms, etc). But I strugged it off. Getting a physical really isn't even that big of a deal.

If you are going to be uncomfortable with yourself at the appointment, you should shave.but other than that, it is a personal preference, I can't stand to have hair down there, but that's me! Its up to you,
