When transporting my clients to appointments, if necessary I assist with those forms. We get a good giggle overtime I ask these 70+ women that question!
I’ve filled out the forms & not only am I well over the age, I had surgery. Yet I still get asked that. I kinda forgive them as I was a photo clerk & often would greet a regular by name & then pick up the envelope & by habit ask for the last name.
Went to the OBGYN one year, and he was very late for our appointment, he apologized and said he’d been delivering twins! What a rare treat for him, he said. So we started talking about all the multiple births he’d attended over the years. Got home and realized we’d not talked birth control. I called him (this was in the day you actually got to speak to the doctor when you phoned in with a question)…, when I asked him he laughed and said, “Honey, you don’t have to worry about that anymore!” (Happy dance!). It was also back in the days that a nice elderly gentleman could call a lady “honey” and it was a compliment.

I have never been asked that question. But I’m a guy.And if they did ask that, I am pretty certain I would find a new doctor.

On further thought. I guess in today’s screwed up world…anything is possible.

You know you’ve gone over the hill when they don’t ask you when your last period was but if you still get them.
