Ok ladies, since getting on this site I have had plenty of men say it is normal for a women to also have a rectal exam along with a vaginal exam at the Dr. So I would like to know how many out there have a rectal exam as a regular with their vaginal exam.
Also I will tell you my story and let me know if sounds anything like your rectal exam.
I had just met my husband, and moved to his state, first thing I wanted to do was establish finding a new Dr, thankfully for me there was a small clinic in town, so I set up an appt. So doing the normal breast exam pelvic exam, than doing the pap, I thought we were all done, so I sit up, this female Dr goes, oh we are not done, I need to do a rectal exam. I was a little confused because I had had many yearlys done, paps and never been told about a rectal exam, I was in my early 20s. So she proceeds to lube up her whole hand, starts with one finger feeling around the inside of my rectum. I thought well this isn't so bad, than she goes I'm going to have to put 2 fingers in to get deeper. So she puts to fingers in, she would slowly withdrawal them and plunge them in deeper, withdrawal them plunge them in even deeper. This process took longer than everything else she did all together. She must of been at it for 15 minutes. I'm not complaining, I rather enjoyed, and I think she knew I enjoyed it cause after she was done she said oh, I'm going to wipe your vagina for you,looks like I left a lot of lube behind, we all that was not lube!
Welp let me know if a rectal exam is normal and if this rectal exam was normal
