Guys: WHERE was your first rectal exam?

I had my first rectal exam at the doctor office of a private center. If it was expected no, but I figured they would do it, because this often happens in the urological checks...however at the end of the exam I thought I escaped it, but the doctor, said me "knees to the chest..."

I was a freshman in college. I was at the medical clinic for a bad cold, and asked the female doctor about a prostate exam. She said that she didn’t normally perform an exam on younger men, but would be happy to perform one on me. I agreed. She had me lay on my left side and pull my jeans and underwear down to my knees.

I was at a my doctor's office for a general physical when I was sixteen. Dad, who usually did not accompany me to my physicals, was along with me. As the exam moved along, dad suggested to my doctor that he give me a rectal exam. So as I was on my back on the exam table, I was directed to pull my knees to my chest and doctor's finger entered me. It felt so good I moaned. I got fully erect. I had expected the exam to hurt. After that time at every physical doctor did a rectal exam.

18, I had been having stomach problems and went to see the medical officer when he made me totally undress and gave me an intense physical including a rectal exam..

It was my college physical done by my personal physician before i left for school. I had the usual exam including a genital exam and hernia exam while standing there naked. As I thought I was done and turned to go retrieve my briefs, he said, "One more thing. Let's have you lean onto your elbows and spread your legs so we can do a prostate exam." I blushed and felt myself tremble some. I did as told. The initial shock of pulsing my anus for the doctor was embarrassing and then gasped as he pushed his finger fully into me. He had told me to breathe deep but still it was a feeling completely unknown to me. He rotated his finger all around and pronounced me fine. Three shots later, one sore tush, I left and had plenty to remember.

My next rectal was while in college in the spring semester at the student health service. I had to get a physical to participate on the crew team. I had to strip to my briefs, given the basics, and then drop my shorts for a hernia exam. Next, he had me lean over onto the table and announced what he was going to do, and asked if I had one done in the past? Next thing he has his finger inserted and twisting despite my grunt and gasp.

In the hospital bed on my left side, where were more patients, so male doctor pulled the curtains around the bed.

Dr's office in my fifties. Father had colon cancer and prostate. Have checks regularly. No big deal unless they poke around in there too long and I worry I am going to leak some cum. Hasn't happened yet. 😃

At a urologist office, when I consulted for a hydrocele. I was lying bottomless on the exam table. After examining the hydrocele, the surgeon asked me to move toward the end of the table and lift the knees. The prostate exam was very quick and showed no anomalies.

At the doctor's office a couple of years ago as part of my regular physical.

At the doctor's office a couple of years ago as part of my regular physical, but quite unexpected and therefore embarrassing for me.

I had mine at the doctors office. It was done by a young female doctor and her technique was perfect. To this day her insertion was the smoothest iv ever felt, and that includes anal play.

Mine was at my new internist's office when I was 18. It was part of my new patient physical as I transitioned from a pediatrics practice to adult medicine.

GP's office, age 23.

At a resort with a general doctor after seeing black stool.

My first DRE was during my first urologist visit when I was 20 years old. It was unexpected to me! Definitely an "exciting" experience to say the least... It was also my first time in stirrups! I felt very vulnerable in that position.

When I was 15 at a public health doctor. From there I came into our childrens clinic, where I had a rectal exam again during a complete physical exam by a gastroenterologist.

18 college physical, it was a surprise. But now my favorite part of exam.

At my corporate business employment medical dept. On site by a contracted physician who had his own practice elsewhere. There was a full time staff of a nurse and a certified nurse practitioner on duty at site for general care.

I was employed in a division doing clerical duties and also the tracking of product within warehousing for shipment to retailers nationwide. My position fell under a budgetary cut and I was offered a furlough not promised in that I may be recalled or a new position in the physical plant working with the products produced they being herbicides and pesticides so I accepted the offer but had to undergo and pass a full physical exam for approval.

A appointed date and time was set and during the exam a full genital and rectal procedure was performed with the nurse practitioner present and assisting with these completely. I after completion left rather embarrassed by her having been present and occasionally embarrassed again when passing her in the hallways of the complex at times. Fretter

I had not had an exam in over 10 years. I started a new job at age 37. I had new insurance and decided to seek out a new primary physician since the previous GP I had seen in the past had retired. Done in a private practice office. I was told to cross my arms and lean over the exam table. And that was unexpected.

I was 17 and in a cure in a youth clinic. On the second day of my stay, I was also presented to a doctor who performed an anal examination on me.

@sportsphysicalguy cross your arms? Interesting. What does that do?

Mine was at my current PCP's office at my new patient exam, just two years ago. I had recently switched from a female family med doctor to this male family med doctor in a small private practice. I had seen my previous doctor for around 12-15 years. My annual physicals with her lasted just a few minutes and was obviously not a thorough exam at all. I just thought that was normal for my age these days.

To say my rectal exam with my new doctor was unexpected is an understatement. After all, I'm under 50 and prostate cancer doesn't really run in my family. When he told me to stand for a hernia exam I was surprised because I hadn't had one of those since a pre-employment physical 19 years earlier. When he finished with my genital exam and stood up from his stool, I thought we were done and actually pulled my pants up and was starting to zip them. That's when he looked at me and said he was going to check my prostate next... I would love to have seen my face and body language as I walked over to the exam table, pulled my pants down (again!), and bent over it.

@sportsphysicalguy cross your arms? Interesting. What does that do?

Only a guess, but if you cross your arms and lean over the table, you can't support yourself with them. That would mean you're resting your entire upper body on the exam table, which might force you to bend over more than if you rested on your arms or elbows. But I've never had someone tell me to do that either.

At home on my bed. I was about 9 years old, had appendicitis and our GP had come on a home call. I was made to squat, open my legs, and recline a bit, and she put her hand under my pubes before pushing her finger in.

I had my first rectal exam at 52 during a physical checkup performed by a female doctor in a National Health centre. The full medical examination was done in underpants, and at the end the doctor asked me to take off my underpants in order to have a digital prostate exam.

I laid on my back and folded up my legs apart. With her left hand, she then moved my penis onto my pubis and lifted my testicles. Then I felt lube against my anus, followed by the doctor’s gloved finger being inserted deep into my rectum during a few seconds.

This DRE was totally unexpected for me because the previous times I had not had one.

I'd have to say sometime after 50 at a yearly physical. The doctor saved it for very last and had me squat with my hands on my knees and checked my prostate. He did it the same way every time after that. My new doc has never laid a finger on me, he mostly relies on bloodwork.

It was in the late 1980, but memory is not that good about it. I started going to a new GP and being in my mid-40's he wanted to a flexible proctoscopy, so I thought it was a good idea. Colonoscopies weren't as common back then. Along with the proctoscopy he did a rather through rectal exam. After that he did another rectal and proctoscope at least every year.

At age 40, back in 1999. This was the time it was recommended every so many years. It was scheduled. I had a female Dr. who put me on my side and did the exam. She asked if I was comfortable with students using me to learn...I said sure, they have to learn sooner or later.

She then had them do the exact same exam. This was 4 other female Dr's. I was then scheduled for a colonoscopy the following week.

My first rectal to check the prostate was in the office of the gp, unexpected

In the butt.
