Genital exam without gloves

@collegephysical58 you're lucky your doctor used hand sanitizer. My pediatrician's exam rooms had this very common liquid pink soap that was sold to lots of businesses so I'd walk into a retail store using that pink soap and instantly be aroused and then get aroused again washing my hands. Thankfully its rare now because everyone switched to the "foaming" soap... and this one didn't foam but every once in a while I run across it being used and enjoy washing my hands more than normal xD

When I was younger my Doctor never put on any Gloves during the examination plus his surgery was always warm but his hands were always cold

Every time my pediatricians performed a genital exam, they were without gloves. Even the pediatric surgeon who performed my circumcision examined me without gloves.

In my childhood, genital exam were performed without gloves.

Adulthood : yes, doctors wore gloves.

As I said earlier my pediatrician always used bare hands never gloves. Strangely at my last physical, the examiner, a PA, examined my balls and did hernia exam without gloves although she washed her hands before and after which I found polite.

Yes - in the 1980s growing up at the pediatrician.

Only one time that I can remember. I had went to the clinic in town because of some pain in my right groin area. I didn't know who the doctor was going to be their were a few doctors at the clinic. The nurse escorted me back to exam room and did the preliminary things asked why I was there? And took my vitals, before she left she said she was going to get out some things for the doctor. She laid out a pair of exam gloves and a small bottle of Surgi lube. then said she was going to get the doctor. She looked at me with a sympathetic little look and left. I sat there nervously waiting, glancing over at the gloves and bottle of lubricant wondering what was going to happen? When the doctor came in I recognized him, he was one of the older ones there. He asked me what was going? As soon as I told him he said to hop down off the exam table and to stand on the floor. He then told me drop my pants and underwear. He immediately reached down and started feeling my testicles and then checking me for a hernia. He didn't take time to put the gloves on he was done in a few seconds telling me he couldn't feel anything wrong and he was sending me for a ultra sound that testicular cancer was very common in guy's my age. I didn't have time to even think about him not putting the gloves on it was over so quick. I stood there feeling relieved that he wasn't going to do anything else.

Yes i Had No gloves normally

It's very interesting to read this thread, because just the other day I was wondering if anything like that could happen in real life as I was watching a film called Intimate Examination where the female doctor was doing one last fast check of the man's penis and testicles without any gloves (after previously having used gloves during the more comprehensive andrological exam)...

Yes, it was common in my teen years - no gloves for the genital exam.

Interestingly, when I was in my 30's, I had to visit a Urologist for part of the infertility evaluation my wife and I were going through. The Urologist, probably in his 50's, palpated my genital bare-handed. In his defense, he only palpated my scrotum - not my penis. Nevertheless, it was still a surprise.

In my memory I don’t think I had any exam where doc wore gloves, they were always bare-handed.

I think it’s due to lack of funding of clinics and hospitals during nineties and early two thousands and post-soviet mentality at that time.

No gloves as far as I remember

even the time my doctor wanted to check my penis sensitivity/erection and he literally stroked me (just a few times only)

Wearing gloves may look more professional, but bare hands could be kinder to the sensitive skin down there.

Easternexam,

Stroking and pulling my foreskin down was also performed with no gloves in my case. As well as rolling my testicles between bare fingers.

Yes, there is something way more intimate and even pleasurable to feel skin-to-skin contact, especially in the genital area.

Rubber would’ve made it more professional and strictly medical, not as sensual.

In my childhood, genital exam were performed without gloves.

Adulthood : yes, doctors wore gloves.

Same here. There has been a radical shift. Growing up I never remember a doctor putting on gloves for anything, and today it seems that gloves are worn for any sort of physical contact whatsoever.
