Gyno Scale Location

Mine has one in the hallway but also one in each room.

At the obgyn practice my wife started going to has a scale located outside the exam rooms by a bathroom and she gets weighed before her vitals are taken. Her old obgyn practice that she went to had a scale in each exam room.

Scale is in the hallway at the office I visit...weighed fully clothed. They will always point out the weight, but never say it out loud.

I was at three different offices. The scale is always in the hallway. I'm fine with that.

The doctor my wife and I go to has a scale in each exam room, but the height measurements are done against the wall in the hallway where the exam rooms are located. The wall has one of those rulers with the flat bar that is slid down to the top of your head attached to it. First the nurse takes you into an exam room, has you remove your shoes, then step up onto the scale for your weight. Then she takes you into the hallway, has you stand up straight with your back against the wall, slides the bar down to your head to record your height, then back into the exam room for vitals and exam.

In France, it is not usual for the gynecologist to be accompanied by an assistant (except in the hospital).

As a result, the cabinet is only made up of 2 rooms, the office and the examination room.

The office is intended for the interview with the patient. The scales are therefore installed in the examination room.

Personally, I ask the patient to weigh herself once she is undressed so that the result is not disturbed by the weight of the clothes.

I also find it more respectful that this information remains confidential between the doctor and his patient.

If she is accompanied and someone is waiting for her in the office, I consider it normal that her weight is not communicated if she does not wish to.

Weighing is a systematic part of the gynecological examination, it is essential in obstetrics during pregnancy and provides us with a lot of information when monitoring the contraceptive pill or when going through menopause.

Always in the room and usually with t shirt and knickers on. One time I was weighed at the end after my 2 finger test. I have an innie before my tests but an outie afterwards. I looked down while on the scales and I could see my clitoris!

The scale at my Gyn's office is in the hallway. His MA weighs me, then has me give a urine sample, then we're off to the exam room.

Our internist's office has scales in each exam room. I'm weighed after the MA reviews my history and meds, etc. There's a little cubicle in each of the rooms where you change, so she's still in the room while I undress, but I have privacy. Then she gets my height and weight and other vitals.

I’ve had it done in the hall and inside the room with either street clothes or just a gown. I’ve been in the exam room and the scale is wheeled in and used after I’ve put on the gown whether it’s paper or cloth.

A few years ago, I was referred to a specialist for something. My referring Dr had sent notes and records, of which included my most recent weight. No big deal in my opinion. The specialist asked me my current weight. I told him. He wrote it down. He eventually escorted me to an exam and asked me to remove everything and put a cloth gown on. He came back in, he had me get on the scale in the exam room. He had a look of surprise on his face. I asked if there was a problem. He said “no, thank you for your honesty when I asked you for your current weight!” He told me he rarely hears an honest answer to the question he asks about weight and has heard every excuse as to why the answer of the patient doesn’t match his scale and/or the notes of the referring physician.

You really are incorrigible 😜

Loved that description though . .I looked down an my “friend” had cum to life😁 . .figured I had some weight to offload.

When I went with my mom and sister to their exams the scale has been in the exam room both times.

When my wife goes to the gyn the scale is in the hallway.
