Is It Normal For The Pediatrician To Check The Private Parts?

Hi, I m a 15 year old girl. I had a physical yesterday at my pediatrician and it kinda freaked me out. It was me and the doctor (a guy) and a nurse (girl). He did normal stuff, but then I had to undress to my underwear, he touched my breasts, and looked in my privates. Is this normal?

Hi, welcome to HCM. Can understand your concerns. It is not normal but the doctor has examined in front of Nurse so there must be some reason for that. Take care.
