Forgive the ignorance, but are regular OBGYN appointments a thing in the US? From the media I’ve consumed it appears so. I know people with actual gynaecological issues like endometriosis, and even they find the idea of regular checkups without a cause weird.
My health insurance gives me a discount if I perform a set of preventative-maintenance tasks. They want me to get a pap smear every 3 years, so I guess that's the standard "how often to see a gyno if you have no health concerns regarding gyno issues" schedule.
Edit: I also have a regular doctor I'm meant to see every year.
