Hi, thanks for writing in. I cannot understand the first part of your email so please  write in again if this answer does not cover your concern.
Usually it is best to wait until after your period is finished for a doctor’s examination but if you have symptoms and are concerned about an STI, then seeing a health provider as soon as possible is recommended.  Health Nurse
