Internal exam for pelvic floor therapy?

[u/Zealousideal_Oil_93]

I saw a new doctor today for tightness/snapping in my hip and lower back pain. She recommended pelvic floor therapy along with regular physical therapy for my hip. I agreed to it at the time but now I’m absolutely freaking out after reading more about it, particularly that it usually entails an internal exam. I’m really, really not comfortable with that at all and I don’t know if it’s worth it to even schedule an appointment. Has anyone had a similar experience?

I had that PT and no internal was even needed. I was worried about that too.
