Photographed

I've had some body parts photographed, but rarely and it was only very local.

The only times I've been photographed "for the record" at an exam was non-intimate like a skin lesion, wart, mole, etc... I've had s/o bring in hidden cams to my yearlies so they could rewatch my exams later. For all I know, the cropped pics/vids are out there in the web -- though, of all the ones I've seen, I've not identified myself.. so, I guess that's a good thing.

I’ve had photos of my breasts taken to help with planning for gender confirmation surgery.

First time was in a “medical photography” area of the hospital - which was actually just a hut with fancy equipment inside. The instructions I was being given and the bright lights made me feel really uncomfortable. The second consultation (years later, another hospital) was just the doctor with a phone while I was in the room for a consultation.

Yes. In Hospital. Both times I was raped and beaten. It is part of the procedure.Required for the rape kit. I hope this satisfies your sick fetish.

Do images made during a colonscopy, x rays or mri scans count as pictures or not? Then yes. Otherwise no.

You are thinking of pictures of your skin. But what about pictures of your bones {x-rays). Or your heart and veins full of opaque dyes. Or Magnetic Resonance Images of your internal organs, or images of the actual functioning of your internal organs, or looking at your blood cells through a microscope. These are all more "personal" and "invasive" than merely glancing at your skin. But nobody ever gives them a second thought.

Only during a play exam online. I like to send pictures to the doctor so they can see me while I am undergoing an exam of video is not an option.

I haven’t been photographed naked or any interesting body parts either during real of play exams. The play doctor I have been to had asked me if she could donit which Indidn’t want. But then again, yoi can’t acoid the fact that there might be a hidden camera somewhere in the exam room which is set for the exam table of course. I don’t think that that would be the case but it can be a risk though.

Up to this point currently, no, never photographed naked during an exam. However, I am in discussions to undergo my first play exam via this site, which would take place by internet only, & part of that discussion includes what body parts I will be required to show the Doctor (who'd be on the other side of the USA while I'm in Cali) - i.e. penis, ballsack, anus, etc. I've also been told he needs a urine sample & a "sperm sample". For the former he needs to see me peeing into a cup (not the toilet, as I brought up ), and for the "sperm sample" he will need to see me masturbate. I've taken totally nude selfies of myself before (which I sent to this same Doctor, actually) but never during a physical exam. I suspect that's going to change.

Are you talking about me This IsMark? LOL

I have never been photographed during a real exam but I have during play exams. During some recent play, the top photographed me to record how far he was able to get a colon snake inside of me. We had be working on getting it deeper throughout a few different sessions.

The last time I was at the dermatologist she used a phone to take pictures of some moles on my back. I was assured several times it went straight into my chart and not onto the NPs photos app.

Not necessarily pictures. I have a friend that told me a story about the power going out during her Pap smear. The doctor asked if she could use her phone light to finish up since the snake light was out of commission. My friend agreed because she didn’t want to come back.

It all sounds like something out of a bad play exam.

My grandmother told me that her parents were both photographed nude when they entered college. She said everyone was back then. I was so shocked I didn't even know what to say. I didn't believe it, but I can't imagine why she would make up something like that.

As far as play exams go, NOPE never have, never will, but I do love seeing photos of real couples examining each other (actual amateur, not porn).

I have heard that was done in American colleges back then @GraceT . I believe someone posted about it on here a while back. Maybe @agracier ?

Seriously, there would be hundreds of thousands of lawsuits today. How was that OK back then? I mean, what was the purpose?

If you look up "Ivy League posture study" you can find out more information and probably find some photos.

I did indeed post about this some years back. But heavens knows on what thread. In any case, here is a good link which describes more than I could ever write about here. It's a really fascinating bit of history which would now be a big 'no-no' subject.

The purpose seems far-fetched to us nowadays, but back in the 1920s, when such posture photo studies were first being conducted, the ideas behind the theory were more or less standard throughout society. That how you looked and presented yourself to society and others could influence how you developed later in life. That body physique could determine a life trajectory.

It's really an off-shoot on racial theory in a way, but instead of considering skin pigmentation, the idea was that physical differences within one race, white Caucasians in this instance, could also influence, even determine, how one's later life developed into a success or failure because of the body's innate characteristics and condition.

I'm not sure if any conclusions were ever seriously drawn from the tens of thousands of photos taken.

Thanks @agracier .

This is embarrassing. I have a severe hormonal imbalance and mass cell activation syndrome. My body does not do well with traditional hormonal medications. Traditional birth control meds make me super cray, cray. I have found a compound hormonal treatment that is making my skin condition better but I have hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Only around my cycles I get boils and hives. I used to get HUGE boils under my breasts. I used to go to a primary care office that was a residency that had PCP, mental health services, and dermatologist and other specialists all in one building. So there were residents and fully licensed doctors. So at the dermatologist appt, there was a female resident, a male fully licensed dermatologist, and I have NO clue why but a female pharmacist. I guess she was getting in her clinicals. The female resident asked if she could photograph my breast and under my breast for my medical chart. I allowed the photograph. She used a cell phone but claimed it was not her personal phone but the residency phone and the picture would be uploaded to my medical chart and that she wouldn't have personal access to the photo. I am still embarrassed that I said yes.

Yes.
