Underwear at your knees - what would you do?

Right after the Doctor asks you to drop you underwear for a hernia check, he decides to address a topic from earlier in the exam. He proceeds to talk to you at length while your underwear is at your knees. What do you do? Do you A) stand there displaying your genitals with confidence while he continues to talk to you, as if you always carry on conversations with your underwear around your knees, stuff on display, while the other person is fully clothed, B) casually pull your underwear back up after you realize there will be some additional conversation before he is ready to proceed with the hernia check, knowing you will need to lower your underwear again and he may have to direct you to do lower them again, C) make a wise crack, like...hey Doc...can we talk about this in a few minutes when my dick isn't hanging out?, or D) some other option/approach (please indicate what that would be).

I'd just adjust my legs so my underwear drops to the floor and casually step out of them for my comfort. I have no problem being nude.

What I would have a problem with is the doctor taking a phone call in that situation. Yes, it's happened to me.

I've never had this happen to me when nude, as nude exams just don't seem to happen to me.

But a week ago I went to the family doctor for a flu shot and also had him check out a hard lump/nodule I found in my groin. He didn't have me undress, no time for that anymore in the rush-rush society, just drop my pants and lower my briefs and hold up my shirt and sweater.

But as he was palpating, of course his cell phone rang and he picked it up to answer a patient query. While he was busy answering I just waited and didn't do anything else. Pulling my briefs back up seemed rather silly and prudish, stepping out of them impossible because my pants were dropped around my ankles. I relaxed my arms a bit, but even so, my clothes didn't cover up my genitals ...

So essentially I did nothing and just waited as I was. It was no big deal.

I've had that happen to me ages ago, long before I decided to not bother keeping any underwear on during an exam and instead always stripping completely. But back when it did occur, I believe I just stood there with my briefs pulled down. After all, the doctor asked you to get into that position -- who am I to question that. 😃 Seriously, it's things like this happening that caused me to just lose the shorts right away and go nude. It really is much more comfortable and relaxing to get the stripping over with immediately -- that way you're not nervous in anticipation of that happening later in the exam.

Since im of the age where that's noi normally where that stops i believe i would go ahead and step out. that may redirect his attention/conversation. oh, and watch the look on his face

When he tells me to drop my undies for that part of the exam, I usually just let them fall to the ground and step out of them, so I'm completely naked at this point. I've been to a few doctors and they've just told me to get dressed before they started talking.

It rarely happened, anyway some time ago when I was in an other town, I had a physical with an old female doctor that examined me for my cough. She made me remove my t-shirt to rapidly auscultate my lungs and heart, then started to ask me some general health questions and continued with palpation of my groin. After ten minutes of examinations, she asked me to remove underpants to complete the examination, I started sliding my underpants and when they are around my knees she abruptly came back on the reason of my examination (my cough...) asking some question on my temperature any difficulties on breathing, unexpectedly she make me recover from a lay down position to a sitting one and turn to newly auscultate lungs and make me cough. I suddenly followed her instructions, started breathing and coughing. I was not paying attention to my underpants. They slid around my ankles and then on the floor. She seemed to not take importance of my exposed genitals and asked if I preferred drops or capsules and wrote a prescription at her desk. She then slowly returned to me and finished what she has interrupted with a rapid check to my penis then picked up my underwear and help me to dress.

That has never happened to me in a real exam situation and would most likely be considered as unprofessional. Any time that I have been to a doctor he always waits to talk to you about anything from the exam while you are getting dressed or after you are dressed.

I'm usually just in my briefs for physicals and they end up at my ankles for the hernia exam. I don't remember a doctor having a long conversation with me about something else in the exam while he is checking me for a hernia. I have had doctors who explain what they are doing while checking my testicles and scrotum and asking me if I check myself for lumps every month. I wouldn't pull my briefs back up just because the doctor was distracted and talking about something else.

My experience has been that a doctor is more likely to try a distracting conversation during the rectal exam than the hernia exam. A few of those conversations have been about subjects that had nothing to do with the exam. Something like, "have you seen that movie?" Hernia exams are so routine that most men have had many of them over the years, especially if they played sports that I don't think that male doctors and most male patients think that there is anything very embarrassing about standing in front of a doctor in the nude with our shorts around our knees or ankles. I played sports all through school and had at least one hernia exam every year between age 12 and 22 and probably several of those before age 12.

Usually, my exams are usually "strip as you go." When my PCP tells me to drop trow, both my pants and underwear are pulled down, not off. If she gets delayed at her desk, or distracted some other way, I just wait as I am.

It's really no big deal. When you had lived in open bay barracks with 80 other guys, used heads with no stall doors, and common showers, and lived in the field or shipboard, modesty is never an issue.

Never had that happen other than when I addressed an annoying jock itch issue I had. I was being examined by a student foe the entire exam wile my regular doctor was attending other patients, he game me a thorough exam and hence I gave him the opportunity to get the most of his learning. I was serious and legit about it during the exam; which lead me to a full blown erection leaking precum that was kinda embarrassing. Then my doc came in did me a quick once over again and I addressed that issue along with a minor hemiroid issue they both were standing there while.my briefs were just hanging around my ankles talking. The student seemed interested in making sure I didn't need a anal exam or prostate exam. Learned though if ya have athletes foot issues it's best to treat your crotch with some powder or spray once in a while as well. Because your feet will go past your underwear if you are barefoot putting them on.

See my profile I do have that whole experience in there

I've had this happen during a pre-employment physical. The usual exam stripped down to just my boxer briefs. Next, his instruction " drop your shorts to your ankles". So I'm standing nude he starts at length about people taking the last exam glove and never getting a new box. He says need to ask need to ask to some question: about sex, smoking, alcohol and drugs. Finally, he does the gential/hernia exam. I just stand there undware still

I might just take them off during the hernia check of my next physical. That seems less awkward than having them around my knees, making sure I keep the right amount of tension to keep them from falling but not so much tension that they look like they are being stretched. For me to have my briefs around the knees can make me more aware of my nudity than being totally nude anyway. I know a guy into spanking who would rather have the briefs at the knees to bare the bottom for spanking than having them completely removed, and says an occasional snap of the waistband is a great reminder that the briefs have been lowered!

Not the exact thing, but I had something similar happen to me at my last physical. The doctor had finished checking my abdomen and had taken a seat on his stool. I knew what was coming as he was putting a glove on. I hop down off the table but before he asks me to lower my underwear, he starts asking me about what sports activities my kids are into! I stood there with a semi-erect penis making small talk with him for 3-4 minutes before he asked me to drop my shorts and finally examine my genetalia. What a strange turn of events.

I would ask the doctor if he/she has completed examining my genitals. Simple.

I would hope any doctor I see would have the courtesy to not keep me with my pants down. If that did happen to me, I would certainly pull my pants back up and wait for the doctor to really begin the exam.

At my last exam, the doctor informed me he would be performing a genital exam and asked my to step down from the exam table and stand in front of him. He didn't directly tell me to lower my shorts, but by the time I was in front of him, he had his gloves mostly on, so I lowered my shorts. He took maybe 5-10 additional seconds to finish putting on and adjusting his gloves before starting the exam, but there wasn't any off-topic conversation or unusual delays.

It's not like I really anything to hide, now, is there?

Definitely A.I wound love for my female doc to do this.

I've posted that at my first physical exam with an internal medicine doctor, I had lowered my briefs as ordered for the hernia check. Then he ordered me to do jumping jacks, which I did, as my briefs slid, and fell. There was a different doctor, who had ordered my briefs down for a hernia check, who realised that he needed something (gloves? KY?,) opened the exam room door to ask a male staff member for whatever it was, the staff member then came through the partly open door, which I faced, with my briefs lowered. I guess, in the second case, that we're all guys. I've been left on the exam table in my briefs because a doctor needed something which wasn't in that exam room.
