Have you ever had a surprise rectal examination?

Have you ever had surprise rectal inspections during a medical or gynecological exam ? How did you feel about it ? Which sensations aroused?

When I was at my first initial visit at my urologist, he looked upfront first and then since my reason for seeing him was a urinary problem, he said unfortunately he would have to take a feel of my prostate. So I just bent over and put my elbows on the table and his finger was in and out in 20 seconds. So I guess it was kind of a surprise rectal exam

During my senior year of high school, I was in a fairly thorough physical exam for ROTC. I had walked into the designated office when my name was called and the doctor was in the room with me. He told me, “Strip, underwear too….everything off.” I got completely nude while he stood there although he wasn't really staring; he seemed to be working on paperwork.

He did the standard medical exam stuff which I had always had done although usually I was still in my underpants. Here, I was already nude with my dick and balls exposed so as a 17 year old kid it was a little embarrassing. He had me stand up for the hernia exam, and it was a little different just being nude for that and not having to lower my underpants. All my previous medical check-ups were over after that part but the doctor ordered me to sit back down on the exam table, still nude. I heard him fiddling around with some items behind me and actually heard him knock something over and a bunch of what sounded like little plastic pieces fell and bounced all over the floor! I then heard him putting on the vinyl gloves; that telltale snapping noise. He told me to roll over on my side (with my back towards him) and pull my knees up to my chest. I literally had no idea what this was; I thought he was going to check my back or something. I then feel something in between my butt cheeks, poking around and I got pretty nervous/anxious. I then felt my something pushing directly on my hole, and finally penetrating into me. He seemed to wiggle inside my hole for a little bit, then pull out. I was feeling very odd, partly because it didn't hurt and I sort of enjoyed it. He gave me some tissues and told me to get dressed.

When I was 9, I was examined for stomach ache and intense vomiting. I did not expect to receive a finger deep “up there”. Probably the physician had told my mum about a rectal exam, but she likely used adult words I did not understand.

(If you wonder why she did that: she suspected appendicitis, and back then, they checked for appendicitis by pressing on a certain spot on the abdomen, then confirmed by pressing on the appendix from the rectum. I'm told the rectal exam is no longer done since some less invasive, less painful procedures are now available, such as ultrasound.)

Wow Junky! I could never avoid peeking at what was going to happen. Also having no clue would just make me feel to anxious.

Similar to you guys. I went to urologist, had some infection, probably chlamidia. I expected only genital exam, but after penis and testicles exam, doctor told me to turn over on my left side, and put my right knee up to face as I could. He then put his finger up my ass and found my prostate. He took his time. I felt somehow powerless and weak. He then told me to stand up in front of him, pressed region between my asshole and testicles, then between testicles and finally squeezed penis to milk out that prostate juice. It turned out that my prostate was healthy.

Had routine STD check for burning pee, had gonnorhea. The man took cultures of penis and throat as usual but then while pants were down, told me to turn around and place my hands flat on the hard chair and bend way over, when I asked why he said he had to take a look in back. He did indeed take a good look, spreading my cheeks apart and stretching from side to side up and down for about 15 seconds. No culture, just looking.

Haha Yes. My first OB/GYN exam. My sister told me everything except that. Yes, my sister was in there. I think she thought I would not go if she told me that. To this day she still will not give me a straight answer as to why she didn't tell me.

At age 14 I had to have a physical exam as part of my adoption process. After taking my vitals my doctor kindly informed me of the unpleasant news. I certainly didn't want a rectal exam and my doctor stated she would rather not administer such an unnecessary exam but it was on the form so it had to be done. I accepted her suggestion to get the rectal and testicular examination done first so I would not stress over it. I was already stressed over it but getting it out of the way first was a good idea

Received my first (and only) rectal exam when I was 25 years old. I was in the hospital for appendicitis. The nurse insisted on a urine sample first, and when I couldn't produce fast enough for her, she put a catheter in me. Her technique for putting in the catheter was unpleasant at the best. She started it in with the same technique that you see kids use to get a straw into a juice box. I passed out. Then came to with the doctor performing a rectal exam and yelling at the nurse to “hold him down, I'm almost done!”. That was 26 years ago, and I am still less than thrilled with either of them.

My first was a surprise and shock. I was at the doctor for my annual exam. The doctor was asking me all sorts of normal questions. When my mother piped in about me having stomach aches regularly. Which in her defense I did. I just wasn’t going to speak up about it. I remember rolling my eyes. The doctor asked more questions.

The exam progressed as normal. And toward the end I was sitting on the table. Thinking it was done. Then we had a reprise of the stomach questions. The doctor looked at my mom and said “I think we need to do a rectal”. I didn’t know what that meant.

The medical assistant handed the doctor a glove and what I now know to be a tube of lubrication.

I was then positioned. it was explained to me that a finger was going in my ass. And then I was told to relax. Well how in the fuck do you relax? I think I tried to kick the doctor.

I wanted to strangle everyone involved that day. Which is funny because now it’s one of my favorite memories. The mind works in strange ways.

I had a DRE at the end of my annual checkup when I also experienced first pelvic exam. Yes i was rather surprised.

My first exam was a total surprise. It was when I was 18, and I had my first gynecological exam. It was at the end of the exam and I was in the stirrups, and the PA takes her fingers out of my vagina and next thing I know one was in my anus, feeling around. I was so shocked and surprised and embarrassed. I felt kind of violated. The nurses there had already made fun of me because of the marks on my arms from cutting, and now this. I was totally alone in the room with the PA with no words spoken at all. It was weird, but like many of the experiences here, it’s something I revisit sexually in my head.

My last rectal experience wasn’t really an exam, exactly, but I was swabbed recently during an STD check up. The PA was very sweet. “I hope this doesn’t bother you honey”.

Did you get a couple of penicillin injections in the butt as treatment?

When I was 19 I went for a physical . I got there and I was escorted immediately into the exam room and told by the nurse, ‘remove all your clothing except for your underpants’. So the doctor comes in and he just gives me a creepy vibe. He was a bald headed man and I had the strangest feeling about him.

He conducted a normal exam ,weight, BP, reflexes etc and at the end he asked me to pull down my briefs and he examined my genitals. After he was done and I was getting off the table he asked me to remove my underpants which I did and asked me to go to the exam table and bend over and stand on my tiptoes. I did not know what he was going to do, I thought he was going to check my spine, like my pediatricians did. Instead he says ‘relax, this might hurt a bit' I was about to turn around and he then shoves his gelled finger into my rectum. I was in pain like I never felt before, I felt like I was being split apart, he was then done and gave me some paper towels to clean myself up.

As I turned around I felt like the doctor was checking me out, now that I was completely naked as I was wiping the gel away. He then says something that made the hairs on my head stand up , ‘you should be relaxed about nudity at your age’ and then he left. I got dressed very quickly and never saw that doctor again.

@Amanda_O That really made me LMAO! 😁

He may very well have been a creep, but as advice goes, taken on its own merits, I would say it is reasonable enough.

It is in any case an opinion that I would share, though probably never say to anyone. People nowadays are often far too uptight and ashamed of nudity in the appropriate situations, medical situations being one.

That's why I look back fondly at mandatory nude swimming at the YMCA in my younger days. You simply learned to take nudity in stride and not worry about it, even when clothed adults were there.

Mind works by transforming “traumatic” events into something exciting. I think it's some kind of self-defense mechanism

My first time I was in my 20s. I was at the Urologist I had a female as my doctor. We chatted about testicle pain I was having. She then told me to take my pants and underwear all the way off I hesitate, but did as I was told. I stood their in my t-shirt as she slid gloves on. She proceeded to check pain I was having. After that the said turn around put elbows on table and bend over. She lube on glove and put finger up butt. This is my first experience and I was not expecting it at all.

I wasn't surprised to receive one, but was surprised when my GP suggested trying to get a prostate fluid culture. Before doing the DRE he said that if my prostate felt boggy, he would have me hold a sterile specimen cup at the base of my penis while he pressed on it. While he was massaging my prostate I was stripping my urethra by squeezing sequentially from base to tip. I was able to collect a small drop of milky white fluid. Longer than his DRE, but not that long. He stopped, saying that he's put me through enough. My urethra was filled with fluid and it was hard to urinate after. The urologist massaged my prostate for 3 minutes

Not sure if it is really a rectal, but last year of high school, getting a sports physical for wrestling, and also a last visit to her, she did glove up and briefly did the exam. I remember her telling me it will be cold and feel some pressure, and it didn't hurt probably because her only went in a small amount before she told me to turn around and lie on my back.

The fantasy part of me wishes this could happen!

No, never. Unexpected, maybe once but I understood the reasoning. None of them have ever bothered or surprised me since I was told it was gonna happen.

I've written about this before, but it was my only surprise DRE. It was my first, too. I was offered a job at a bank out of college. It was contingent on passing a physical exam. When I showed up for my appointment, no one was there except a nurse and she said, “you pass!” after taking my blood pressure and that was it. But a year later I had a Japanese lunch with a friend that involved sake. I get back to the office and there was a note telling me to report to medical for a “well employee check.” I go to the medical department. A nurse takes my blood pressure and frowns. “You have an irregular heartbeat. We'll have to check it out.” I told her yeah it's a harmless murmur I've had since I was a kid. It could've been the sake too. She sent me down the hall to a guy who did EKGs. I was amazed that there was no one when I had an appointment but this day they had an EKG tech.

So I go, he tells me to strip my shirt and undershirt off. Electrodes attached, he does his thing. I get up and get ready to go. But he hands me a printout and tells me to go to room XXX to see a doctor. I try to beg off, he says it's for your health and I'm calling the doc now. I go down the hall and see the doctor in his office. We talk a bit, I tell him about the murmur and he says it's best to check it out anyway. He opens the door to an exam room and tells me to take off my shirt and undershirt. I do. He comes in a couple of minutes later looking at my chart. “We never did a physical on you. I'll do one now. Please get ready.” I ask “get ready?” He laughs and says oh yeah you've never had one here. “Take off the rest of your clothes. Everything off, including your undershorts.” I protest, he says it's for my health and he won't release me for work.

He watches as I undress. Complements me on being fit. I'm freaking out a little being naked with someone I never saw before. He does the usual exam, including feeling around my abdoment as far down as my pubes. Takes my penis in his hand and peels the foreskin back, saying great he doesn't approve of circumcision. I stand, he squeezes my balls. I think he's done and go over to my clothes. “One more thing. Leave your clothes, I still need you to be undressed.” He tells me to bend over the table: “We'll check out your prostate now.” I bend over, it's not enough, he moves my elbows so I'm really exposed. Rams his finger up my ass, I feel like throwing up. He withdraws after feeling around and I'm dripping onto the table. “You're done and can put your clothes back on. Thank you for submitting to the exam.”

What a weird afternoon it was.

No surprise situations, but I can sure see why this might make for a fun addition to exam!

I was surprised with one a few years ago. Came in for what I thought was a prostate or bladder infection. Had it once before. Previous Doc just talked about symptoms and gave a prescription. No exam.

This time, doc was convinced I had an STD (I was negative) and then was skeptical it was a prostate infection. To my surprise, he asked to do a prostate check (my first). Of course I said yes. Pulled down my pants and bent over the exam table. He squirted a large amount of lube on his finger, and with one quick motion while pressing down, his finger went all the way in. It was so fast it took my breath away. It was also completely painless and felt amazing. A great experience.

Three times, actually.

First was in high school at a dermatologist. Had a rash on my arms (eczema) and after a quick inspection of my arms he told my father (who was with me) that he wanted to do a full body exam which included a finger up my butt to check for hemorrhoids. Not that I complained about having them! It was very awkward because my father was watching.

Second time was at the end of my senior year. My father took me to his doctor for my pre-college physical exam (had to present a form to the college health office). His doctor was a former Army doctor and was SUPER THOROUGH. I think he was preparing me for a draft physical! This physical exam ended up with a full rectal/prostate exam. I wasn't even 18 yet and certainly was not expecting that.

Third time was in my later 20s. I had been suffering with a bad back for a while and my grandfather offered to bring me to his doctor who had helped with his bad back. I had nothing to lose. I thought his doctor was a chiropractor but he turned out to be an osteopath (which at the time I did not know). I was in my boxer shorts and my grandfather had stayed with me. His doctor did a very thorough assessment of my back pain and was doing a lot of stretching and spinal manipulations, like a chiropractor would do, but then he started doing normal physical exam stuff, like HEENT, blood pressure, pulse, etc., and I began to wonder how far this would go. Well I got my answer when he told me to take off my boxer shorts and he did a thorough genital and hernia exam and then told me to lean on the table on my elbows and proceeded to give me a prostate exam. Certainly did not expect to get a prostate exam for a bad back !

As of now, nope. At age 36 I'm still too young even for a prostate exam. Not looking forward to it though. Haven't had my bum violated since I was a kid…

My Girlfriend had to see a surgeon yesterday. I told her he was going to put his finger in her booty hole. She informed me he wasn’t that kind of Doctor. Now her appointment was to See him to Schedule an appointment for surgery to remove some scar tissue from a previous Surgery she had had and to remove a hemorrhoid.. After the appointment she called to tell me the news. Xpress her embarrassment and surprise when he told her he needed to do a rectal exam, she had thought that he would have just waited to the day of surgery to do this 😂

At age 18, my first rectal exam was a surprise. I wasn't given a recto-vaginal or a rectal exam during my first gynecological exam. The doctor didn't say he was going to do a rectal exam. I felt his finger close to my anus and assumed he was going to stick his finger in when he said to bear down.

It was an odd sensation since I've never had anything inserted there. I never thought anyone would ever want to insert anything there, even with gloves on. I wonder if the doctor could tell it was my first rectal exam by expression on my face and my eyes widening.
