The specificity of adolescent gynecology is uncontested and asks for a specific knowledge and approach. Even if the symptoms remain the same, differential diagnostic and therapeutic approach will be different, depending on the state of development (early puberty, late adolescence), during which they occur. The ignorance of specific pathologies (utero-vaginal malformation, ovarian pathologies related to the menstrual cycle) and therefore inadequate or retarded medical treatment might be the source of unnecessary sequellae. There are now many possibilities to acquire or improve one's knowledge and skills in this particular domain of gynecology. The medico-legal situation as well differs in many points from that of the adult.
