REAL GYNOS ONLY: how many women get wet during REAL exams?

I apologize in advance if this question has been asked already but I do not see it in the forum. I am interested to know what percentage of women (in the general population) show signs of vaginal lubrication during a real gynecological exam. I would appreciate input from real gynecologists only. I have searched the web and could not find any data. Thanks in advance.

I'm not a gynecologist but I do many vaginal exams at work in the ER. I have never noticed a woman getting wet or aroused when I have examined them.

Yes, I believe there are a handful of real OB/GYNs and other specialties on here. I'm also fairly sure there are a good number who claim to be real doctors when in fact they are not. (I remember one who claimed to be a GI doc, yet his writing clearly didn't sound like that of a college graduate, much less someone with an advanced degree.)

I would still be curious to know the answer to the OP's question, just from an OB/GYN, general practitioner, NP, PA, etc. who regularly does well-woman exams. I suspect the percentage is low -- a lot lower than in my exams -- but not zero. (And I totally believe liquidsky's response, since people generally go to the ER only when something is seriously wrong, and even a medical fetishist would probably be too worried and/or in pain to be aroused.)

I creamed all over an exam table during an exam but only because my ex who was a nurse came with me and watched my exam I kept thinking of how I wanted the doctor and my ex to take turns on me lol lol lol lol

Maybe the question needs to be expanded to asking those woman who get wet during a real clinical exam, not a play one. I rather suspect the numbers are going to be quite low.

I'm not a gynecologist, but I do have a vagina and I get annual gynecological examinations. I can tell you that in my experience I do have vaginal lubrication during my exam. I'm not soaked or dripping, but I am definitely moist to the point I can tell and feel. The amount of arousal and lubrication varies, but most times I am noticeably wet.

It's interesting that a real physician has a different view from other fetishists.

The real question should be How many post menopausal women never get natural vaginal lubrication at anytime? This seems to be a big problem from all the ads and lubricants on sale. I guess 70%.

I'm not a gynaecologist . However , I do endure very regular gynae exams . I definitely do get wet at some of these exams . I'm never soaking , but am wet certainly enough for me to be aware of it. I'm sure it's a normal reaction much like the males sometimes experience with an erection .

As most of you know, I am a Nurse Practitioner and have an Adolescent Medicine and GYN practice. There are several things to consider here. I confess that these numbers have absolutely no quantification and are just basic estimates based on nearly 20 years experience.

The majority of women dread a pelvic exam. It makes them nervous, tense, anxious, embarrassed, and self conscious. All these things are counterproductive to allowing the Skeen´s gland to produce moisture. Even if you throw in the relatively small percentage of women who do for whatever reason they do, enjoy a pelvic exam, I have found that perhaps only 30% of the women I examine produce any quantity of noticeable moisture to my touch, and of that 30% perhaps less than 5% produce significant amounts. It´s a matter of mind as well as physiology, folks. Now, throw in the factor of a ¨nice touch¨ on a particular sensitive area (and all women are different, guys!) whether accidental or intentional, and the scale is tipped in the other direction and chances are, despite her best inclinations otherwise, this woman is going to enjoy her exam to some degree.

There´s just way too many variables.

Men, indeed KUDOS to the comment about your erections during exams. While I see only adolescent males as patients, physiologically it´s ¨there¨. And, again, during exams they are much more often flacid than erect. For more mature men, I am sure that your minds work different and in different directions, and so do your penises! Again, see above about the variables of mind and touch.

Now, as I read this back, I wonder to myself if it makes any sense, or have I just rambled in a circle and could have just summarized by saying, ´IT DEPENDS....¨ !!!!

Doing the math for beccarnmommy, 5% of 30% is a whopping (sarcastically) 1.5% of the women will get noticeably wet. That seems to go along with liquidsky's not seeing women get wet or aroused and other medical professionals doing REAL exams on REAL patients.

The women here who claim to drip all over the table (again some morning sarcasm) is clearly a skewed sample.

Regarding becarn's comment about how most women feel regarding their pelvic exam, my lady does not look forward to it at all. She knows it's necessary for her health but dislikes it. Not something she gets visibly upset about just the "I don't want to do this but I have to" type of feeling.

I even mentioned once about "speculum" and I got "what hell?" and dagger eyes. Backed off that subject for the time being. I think there is a fine and fuzzy line by posters (men and women, play docs and patients) of what really happens between play, the mind, and reality, of which that line is often crossed here.

What you say is definitely true.

My husband is welcome to insert a speculum to take a good look whenever he likes, but I do not like REAL exams either. Suppose they find something wrong!

I do believe beccarnmommy's observations are pretty close to (if not right on) the mark. Most of the women I know well are scared to death that something wrong will be found during their gyn exam and do not enjoy it at all. As a male (though significantly beyond my adolescent years), my experience has been that most of us are uncomfortable being probed and pulled in that area. I have had a couple of urological procedures with a quite good looking female urologist in attendance with her male colleague and I could think only of that electro-cautery control in her hand, and nothing else.

I can say unequivocally that my wife does not enjoy pelvic exams like I do. Since her diagnosis with Bartholins Gland cancer and the subsequent 28 rounds of pelvic radiation, her parts are dryer than the Sahara Desert in the summer. If she is wet after an exam it is from either the KY or sweat from fear of finding something else.

Thank you everyone for your comments so far. I think we can now estimate that only around 1% of women in the general population become significantly wet during a real gyno exam. I would welcome comments from medical professionals who have experienced an "arousal rate" superior to 1% in their patients.

I guess, technically, I am the only one whom this post is addressed. There isn't much more that I can add to what beccarnmommy has already said.

There are times when vaginal mucosa is present immediately even on inspection however this isn't what amounts to being "wet". In my over two decades of practice I have had less than two handfuls of patients that were genuinely sexually aroused enough to produce more than a minimal amount of internal lubrication. I have, however, had one patient that lubed enough that I could have skipped the surgilube.

I am a real OB-GYN for more then 20 yrs. Sorry to report that pts are NOT gushing vaginal secretions at time of their exams. Pretty much straight forward exams, nothing really sexual about it. Sorry to burst your bubble.

I'm not a gynecologist but I do many pelvic exams every day. To say that women get aroused or wet with such exams is totally ridiculous. French said it all.
