Nurse saw me naked while changing

I went to the hospital for an outpatient procedure. After I signed in, I was brought to the preoperative area which small curtained off "rooms" with beds on wheels. My nurse was very pleasant, late 30's, blonde long hair, thin and very attractive. After asking all of the usual questions, she said here are 2 bags for your clothes. Please take everything off, put on the gown and ly down on the bed. She then closed the curtain and left.

As I removed my clothes I folded them and put them in the bags. At this point, I was completely nude and putting the last article of clothing in the bag when my nurse pulled the curtain and walked right in. We looked at each other and she said "Oh sorry, can I get you a warm blanket?" I replied sure. Then she returned with a blanket as I was putting my gown on. I thanked her and she said sorry for walking in on you. I said no worries.

Has that ever happened to you?

By the time I was in my second week at the hospital following my open heart surgery, I had lost all inhibitions about being seen naked by anyone who was helping me.

In the many years I've been around I've been walked in on many times. My doctor's receptionist looked like this:

He always had me strip completely for a physical. He went out to use the phone in his office and she came in with the next patient's folder thinking I was gone. She was really upset and I had to talk her down when I left. I told her I'd been coming there so long I just felt like family and I wasn't bothered at all.

In recent years at the hospital I've been seen so many times I don't care anymore. Once it was a girl who graduated the year before from the high school where I'm a crossing guard and traffic control for the buses. She said she thought she recognized me as she was putting my underpants on as I was getting ready to go home. Several of the nurses and assistants did from taking their kids to school. One of the older ones knew me from fixing her TVs, she was one of my customers.

Last November I had outpatient surgery to repair a torn bicep tendon. After surgery the nurse was helping me put on my t-shirt since my arm was numb and I had no control. They never buttoned the top of the gown after surgery and it fell off leaving me standing in front of her nude while she put the shirt on. I was still too out of it to enjoy it. She apologized, I just said no worries I'm sure you didn't see anything new 😂

In a medical office nurses have never watched me get undressed, but a few times they have watched me getting dressed after various office procedures. In a hospital I have either been naked or had my genitals exposed so many times I don’t even notice it anymore

@ggheat I believe nurses are not embarrassed when they see, intentionally or unintentionally, a patient nude. I also believe a nurse's first mission is to help and care for their patients regardless of the patient's state of undress.

A curious aside, I have visited many nude resorts and beaches over the years where I met many nurses who were nudists. So is it possible, the nurses who are most comfortable when seeing a patient nude are nudists?

@computerstation I agree, I have always felt nurses to want to help and see you in good health. The US Healthcare system another story.

Some of the most kinky women I know are nurses.

I just had an outpatient procedure which I wrote about here. As a result of that procedure, I have to visit the hospital in May for another out patient procedure. Aghhh! So I was thinking about the last visit and these thoughts came to me.

As I removed my clothes I folded them and put them in the bags. At this point, I was completely nude and putting the last article of clothing in the bag when my nurse pulled the curtain and walked right in. We looked at each other and she said "Oh sorry, can I get you a warm blanket?"

I am a nudist so I was completely comfortable with the nurse walking in and seeing me nude. But thinking back, I kind of liked being caught nude. Maybe I have a little exhibitionist in me. So the next time I go to the hospital I was wondering what is the chance I'll be caught nude again? Should I undress really slow or ask for help putting the gown on?

Just thinking out loud. Any thoughts?

My daughter is a hospital ward nurse. When we talked about nudity in medical settings one time she said it was necessary and that after a very short while it was unremarkable. Any sort of modesty was for the patients comfort not hers.

I am a retired RN, critical care and radiology certified. Seeing people naked is unavoidable in a hospital setting and also in some outpatient settings. Nurses and all other health care workers work to keep patients feeling safe so all measures are taken to ensure patient modesty is maintained.

On the other hand I have been a consumer of health care from time to time and have had my own experiences of being exposed as a patient...I always felt comfortable in those situations.

Thank you replying. From a nurse's perspective, did you ever feel that a patient wanted to be seen nude? Or did you notice if a patient had an all over tan? Just curious.

Intresting question, as part of overall patient assessment it is necessary to observe the patients skin, noting anything anything unusual such as moles bruises, open sores ect. The thing that got my attention on my patients were tattoos, not the ones that you see today but the ones from earlier. Some were very elaborate like the guy who served in the China navy, he had a beautiful dragon scene on his chest, he had open heart surgery and a plastic surgon closed the chest so that the image remained as intact as possible. I have also seen numbers tattooed on forearms on concentration camp survivors. Two of my favorite were a young woman who had a cat head inked in her lady parts and an older guy who had Air Force wings on his chest. The ink was recent and he explained that he went to a squadron reunion and all of his buddies went to the tattoo parlor and got their wings permanately applied to their bodies.

@thumpercat Very interesting response. I am a nudist and have an all over tan....no tan lines. Do nurses ever notice that?

Tan lines do stand out.

I also took care of patients who were very casual about being naked.

On two occasions I have been seen naked while changing. I had a prostate biopsy and once the procedure was done the doctor left the room. The nurse then told me that I could get dressed. I sat up on the table and was a little dizzy. As she was about to leave the room, I then asked her about taking off the patient ID band on my wrist that had been put on me when I checked in. She said “I’ll get some scissors to cut the band off” and she left the room. I sat on the table for a minute and then I got off and went over to where my clothes were hanging. I had just taken off the gown and was about to start putting my clothes back on when the nurse walked back in the room with the scissors. Seeing me completely naked, she hesitated for a second. I just took some steps toward her to cut off the wrist band and she then began to walk closer to me. As we met, I could see her take a flash glance down at my shaved penis and scrotum. She fumbled with the scissors and ID wristband to cut it off as I stood in front of her naked. Neither one of us said anything about my nakedness. Once the band was cut off, she left the room and I got dressed.

The other occasion was when I had an annual physical with my female PCP. After my doctor finished giving me a rectal and prostate exam, she got off of the stool and said “we’re done” as she walked to the computer. I straightened up from being bent over the exam table and she began talking to me as I was standing facing her in the exam gown. She was telling me about getting a COVID booster, flu, and a Shingles shot, and possible preventative tests. As she spent several minutes telling me about the preventative tests I should have, I was thinking to myself if I should wait for her to leave the room to get dressed or if I should get dressed as we talked. I didn’t want to offend her, but I figured that she see’s patients personal privates (male and female) all the time. So, I untied the upper part of my exam gown and started to take it off. My doctor asked me a question and I was standing naked facing her to answer her question. I stood naked in front of her for about a minute or so and then I went over to the chair where my clothes were, and she watched me putting my underwear on as I proceeded to get dressed while finishing discussing these tests. She didn’t at all seem troubled by me standing in front of her being fully naked.

In both instances it didn’t bother me at all being seen naked by the nurse or doctor. I’ve been to nudist beaches, so I’m fine being naked and if someone see’s my penis it’s no big deal to me. I wasn’t embarrassed and it being in a medical setting they didn’t seem bothered either.

I recently had a knee replacement, admitted in the morning. Previous surgeries nurse steps out or there's a curtain while I change into the gown. Not this time. I like CFNM--so I took advantage. In the room was a gurney, big plastic clothes bag and a gown. Nurse is asking many questions. I say "I assume I take everything off and put on the gown." "Yes." She continues the questions and writing answers, so I start with taking off shoes and socks, then pants and underwear. Nurse keeps asking questions, facing me, looking down to write. I pull off my shirt, now naked. More questions. I stuff my shoes & clothes in the bag still naked. She only stops to help me when I can't figure out how to unfold the gown and put it on.

We should get over this in medical setting. Naked needn't be problematical. Medical folk have erotic feelings too but usually our bodies are not of interest. We are not all super models. Actual abuse in medical or clerical situations is deplorable and must be persecuted. Yet I have had a turp and was managed by many young ladies who taught me to catheterize myself fully naked. All were professional and must have seen many naked males as they had likely been naked in gyn exams. Lets get over it bodies are bodies; eroticism is eroticism; erections are erections; etc. Grow up.
