Rejected petition Female only doctors for private female genteel matters
Provide women and girls with only female doctors or nurses for private female matters. For example, Smear tests, and any other tests revolving around female genitalia.
More details
Plenty of women in the UK go through many changes in their bodies which they can find scary. Not just because of the changes they experience but when they run into unexpected problems such as endometriosis or something as general as a smear test. While male doctors may understand, females know how the female anatomy works better than males. And woman in the modern day feel more comfortable with a female doctor as opposed to a male one. Changing this for women would be one giant stress less and would provide them with answers around their own anatomy and bodies quicker and easier.

Why was this petition rejected?
It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.
Petitions need to ask for a clear action from the UK Government or the House of Commons. We aren't sure if you'd like women and girls to have the legal right to see a female doctor or nurse for certain matters, of if you'd like something else.
You could start a new petition setting out clearly what you'd like the UK Government or Parliament to do.
We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
