Orchidometer use for guys

Did any guys have ones of these used of them during their exams growing up?

What happened? How old were you? How many times did it get used on you? What was being discussed when it was being done? Were you lying down or standing? Embarrassing?

I had it used on me a few times growing up so I’m curious to hear other guys experience when they had to have it used on them.

This is the first time that I have heard of it and have never heard of anyone even referring to it. If you were young at the time, I wonder why any doctor would want or need to measure the size of your testicles at that age unless there was obvious signs for concern.

I used one in practice when evaluating patients for potential growth or maturation problems. Not routinely otherwise.

My pediatrician used the instrument at least one time a year during my examination for puberal development. I was lying down on the examination table completely naked. He started to palpate my testicles with the reference to correctly measure the glandular volume. The palpation was deep and he separate the testicles from the body squeezing each and pulling a bit. Little pain and a lot of embarssement. After that he started with penis and retractng it.
