Hello woolav,
that is kind of weird! I hope his hands don't shake too much, haha! I'm sorry... I know that was kind of gross. I suppose some of the doctors who were educated 50 years ago may not have kept up with all the modern medications and treatments. That would make me slightly uncomfortable too. Actually, it makes me really uncomfortable. I like to know that my doctor is informed and can make the best choices based on all the knowledge out there.Can you switch to a new gynecologist? Of course, on the other hand, if he's been doing gynecology this long and is a specialist, he's probably great at gynecology. And maybe it's not so bad that he hasn't heard about some of the modern drugs. What kind of vibe do you get from him? Do you think he's a good doctor? Do you trust him?
Good luck!
