Gynecology is the branch of medicine that deals with diseases and disorders of the female reproductive system. Typically, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) recommends that young women have their first visit with a gynecologist between the ages of 13 and 15, or when they become sexually active, whichever comes first.
