Pubic Hair Inspections

Did any of you ever have a doctor check your pubic hair during an exam? Mine ran his fingers through mine a couple times when I was younger.

I don’t remember that ever happening to me. Were they checking for lice (crabs)?

That never happened to me but I am always shaven or have my hair trimmed very short.

Not really the hair itself but a couple of times I’ve had the doc try to more closely examine something like a mole that they couldn’t see very well because the hair was long so the doc would part the hair in multiple different ways. similar to how they check the scalp under thick hair. I have more had that happen in the armpits but it happened a couple of tjmes when I was in my teens

now I am much more trimmed so the hair is easier to see through so to speak.

Have had it done, manly to look at the base of my penis or testis..

I had my puberty assessed (Tanner stage evaluation) as part of the experiences that most fueled my medical fetish. That included examining my pubic hair. And I had it inspected for body lice when some other guys on the wrestling team got them.

Yes,. I think that's an important part of the exam

I had this exam too when I was in puberty

My dermatologist checks every bit of skin, including everything around my genitals. I'm 99% shaved except for one area above my penis where I left a patch of hair grow naturally. She usually brushes her fingers through that area to see if there are any skin issues hiding under the hair.

My pediatrician usually did during my high school years…I would be lying down and he would pull down my boxers. He would then feel my pubic hair first and say it was part of checking out my sexual growth and would ask when I started noticing it the first time it appeared. He would then move onto commenting and examining my penis and testicles…it was really embarrassing having that area so openly discussed and examined at that age.

Mine definitely did. Usually he would just run his fingers through it as well as inspect the all the hair in that area. It was always so embarrassing when he mentioned or talked about it.

Yes I had one doctor growing up run her fingers through my pubic hair.

This never happened when I had pubic hair, up to around my early 30s. After that I started shaving so no pubic hair to inspect to begin with … ha ha.

One doctor was rather surprised when she first saw it and I believe she imagined something unhealthy had happened to me, such as hair loss from a recurring cancer. But she quickly saw and felt it was shaved and then gave me a funny look.

So I guess you could say I had my lack of pubic hair examined … ha ha

Ours never ran her fingers through ours even when we got older. She just did a fast look.

My ex used to comb it. I was pretty hairy down there. Sometimes style UT with an elecy. razor. She used to put it up against the underside of my penis and make me cum .

@agracier But she quickly saw and felt it was shaved and then gave me a funny look.

Oh yes, the funny looks. I began shaving my entire body back in the mid-1980's and I'd get all sorts of looks, and even some comments from docs/nurses. But you and I were ahead of our time; now-a-days there are no comments, etc.

Only in the navy when the doc was looking for crabs. 😃

I’m sure my doctor noticed my pubic hair as a matter of tracking puberty. However, I’ve shaved mine ever since I turned 18.

My pediatrician checked my pubic hair at the first examination during puberty.

No. Never.

How does a doctor check pubic hair? I’m confused. You’ve got it or you don’t!

@Rigel the most legit reason, alluded to by others, is crabs ( pubic lIce). They’re small so maybe a comb would pick up lice OT nits.

Crabs do not usually infest the head as hair spacing is wrong. However the eyelashes have correct spacing so oediculosis blepharitis is a know problem. Usual complaint is itching. Ophthalmologist uses microscope to see them & picks off bugs & nits. Chemical used scalp injure the eyeballs

Mine would check the pubic hair growth as part of seeing how far along in puberty I was. But not checking the hair itself.

Yes, I had a doctor lift my shorts up and peak to assess my puberty stage

I had this done while laying down and the ped would look and touch my pubic hair. then i would pull down my underwear for the testicle and hernia exam. For my sister the ped looked in her panties to check tanner stage. She is shaved down there now though.Then would have her pull her underwear down to her ankles to examine her vagina externally.

I think somewhere in the Das Boot TV series they check the pubic hair of seamen for lice.

My first two genital exams with my current doctor, he spent a lot of time rummaging around down there. I had bilateral hernias at the time, so he was parting my hair looking and touching my various bulges down there.

I did not have any to check until after my 16th birthdays due to hormone issues. I always felt so embarassed when i went for my exams with mother, the dr and nurse in the room.

Yes, my doctor would run his fingers through mine as I was growing up.

I do not recall this as a kid or in High School, but when I started to go to the dermatologist he and subsequent other dermatologists would check for anything unusual. As a kid the Dr. would make comments about your development and hair was coming in nicely.

It is part of a well woman exam
