===Laws & Social Stigmas===
If you visit a gynecologist and you're married, the gynecologist may ask for the name of your husband, according to Jordanian locals. For some married women, this is an invasion of privacy, and they may not wish to include their husbands in the results of their exams If you don't want to give the name of your husband, you can say that you're divorced. Above all, it's advised that you feel prepared for this question.
If you visit a gynecologist and you're unmarried (and sexually active), you have two choices. Your first choice is to say that you're divorced (that way, you don't have to give the name of a husband). Your second choice is to be honest and say that you're unmarried and sexually-active. The latter choice may expose you to a certain degree of shaming or judgment. No matter what you choose, the choice is yours.
