Can you go to the gynecologist while your on your period?

I'm 15 and my mom set up my gynecologist appointment for October 10th and I'm supposed to be on my period. Do I need to ask my mom to reschedule?
(P.s. She is wanting to put me on birth control. Is that gonna have any effect of me being on my period when I go?)
