Exam Gown Questions

Ladies,

A couple of questions:

A. When instructed to put on the exam gown is it specified if the opening should be in the front or the back ?

B. Does the dr. watch while you get undressed and put on the gown ?

For all of my gyn exams, they specify that the opening goes in the front (for the breast exam) and the doctor isn't even in the room yet. The nurse has always handed me the gown and then left.

Paper thing--like a poncho another piece of paper for my lower half.

Ahh... cost cutting; it's too expensive to launder and maintain the old cotton gowns I guess.

I am in the room alone to get changed. I'm not sure that there would or could be any real life circumstance where the Health Care Provider would watch you undress. That's strictly fantasy stuff.

(or dodgy doctor I suppose... I'd refuse)

All the exam gowns are pretty much cloth with the silly clinic logo on them where i come from...

Cloth - open in back - no, I always undress alone for my real exams

Always Cloth, and always left alone to get ready

Opening to the back

sometimes the medical assistant stays in the room

My wife GYN has her wear the gown to it opens in the front.As far as undressing her and I in the exam room.One time the nurse did step on the other side of the curtin so she could undress and get into the gown.The Nurse then finished her Vitals after that.At her Family doctor the gown is worn to where it opens in the back.When it comes time for the breast exam the gown is completely lowered.

My wife says her ob/gyn always has her have the gown open in the back. Most time it's a cloth one and a small sheet to cover her thighs, however two of the doctors shes gone to had paper exam gowns. one had her keep the front open and one open in the back

Paper vest type thing open to the front. Always alone when undressing.

The practice I currently attend uses cloth gowns. You are instructed to leave the opening in back. " Please undress completely" and it is not supervised. I wonder if there is any RL practice of remaining in room when one is undressing?

Cloth gowns. Open in back. Always alone to undress wether my ob/gyn or my family doctor.

No s. I think it's quite unusual in France in private offices. When I wear stockings, I keep them and the garter belt too.

Maybe non of my business but my wifes doctor leaves her with only a 3' by 3' piece of paperlike material. It barely covers her front, from her chest to about mid thigh when standing( she's real short).

The nurse always hands me this tacky yellow paper gown, which opens in back. I always get undressed in private, and freeze while I wait for the doctor to come in.

For all three of the gyno exams I've had, I was always left alone to get undressed and put on any examination garment I was given. For my two most recent exams with a female gynecologist, I was provided with a cloth gown that I put on with the ties in the back.

For my first exam, I was given a skimpy paper abomination that I STILL don't know all the facts on. You can read about it here:

All the gynecologists I've been to have had me wear a thin paper thing that barely reaches the bottom of my breasts and has an opening in front, and they have me cover my lap with a regular paper sheet. Every other doctor uses a cloth gown with the opening in back, and no one has ever remained in the room while I undress.

I had an operation 2 years ago on my left ear, but I still had to strip naked and wear the paper underpants and paper gown given to me by the theatre nurse. When I saw the paper pants they looked like my old plastic pants so my ‘old feller’ started to get aroused. Well don’t know if it was nerves or just the feel of them cutting into me with the elastic leg openings and waist band but I dribbled into them….. whether it was wee or pre cum not sure but soon the damp spot was starting to show through on the gown…..OMG… Nothing was said to me, but I’m sure all the theatre staff noticed.

My SO goes to a male family doc for her annual well woman exam. She removes all of her clothing except her socks and hangs them on the exam room door. She sits on the exam table and pulls a paper sheet over her lap. A small paper exam vest that barely covers her breasts is donned with the opening in the back. She is examined without a chaperone present in the small exam room. She reports feeling especially exposed when the doctor auscultates and palpates her back, as she knows that she is fully exposed from neck to buttocks.

Over the years I have been examined in various types of gowns, including one practice that provided only a paper drape. At the present practice, the PA directs me to undress completely and put on a cloth gown with opening to the back. The doctor comes in after.

They have cloth gowns that tie in the back and a crinkly sheet of paper to cover your bottom half when the doctor has to do the breast exam 😃

Always a cotton gown, open to the back, with a paper sheet over my thighs. The gown is lowered and taken off my arms for auscultation and breast exam, then the sheet is pushed up when I put my feet into the stirrups. The net effect is bare breasts, bare bottom and abdomen, and fabric all bunched up just above my abdomen.

Usually the front, but not always. There is a very small dressing room where I undress, then go into the exam room, but the doctor is not in the exam room

At my regular Gyno Doctor, I am given a cloth gown to wear with the opening to be placed in the front. When I asked the Doctor why she requested the opening of the gown to be in the front, I was told that, "Everything that I am interested in is in the front".

Here is an update from my first post to this thread.

In the past few weeks I have been to two gynecologists because of an ongoing condition I know I have to soon have taken care of. For the first one (which would be about four or five weeks ago now), I was told by the nurse to strip from the waist down, and to leave my top on, but just unhook my bra underneath my top. I was given only a paper sheet with which to cover my lower half up with as I sat in the examination table. Trouble was the paper drape I was given was so skimpy that after wrapping it around my front, it left about a six inch gap that revealed my butt cleavage. What I found so off-putting about this was that the examination table I was sitting on was pretty much in the center of the small exam room - and the door the doctor came through was behind the flat examination table. So his first impression of me would have been the view of my butt not covered by the paper drape. Let's just say I was not happy with this arrangement AT ALL. What I learned from this (although too late for it to be of any good) is that I should have wrapped the paper drape around my lower body with the gap off to one side.

A week later, I went to another gynecologist. In this case, the nurse told me to take all of my clothes off. She gave me a paper gown that she instructed me to leave open to the front. I was also given another one of those paper drapes that I spread out over my lower front. Another difference here was that this doctor had a gyno-chair type of examination surface, so that with the gown open to the front and with the paper drape as well, this second doctor did not get a view of my upper butt cleavage upon his entrance. Yeah, it was a small consolation - but during a gynecological examination these little differences can sometimes count for a whole lot.

By the way, in both instances, the nurse left the room for the time it took me to get myself prepared.

Gown opens in the back and no I always get undressed alone

Every gown I ever had to wear was cloth and the opening every time was in front

I have been to several of my wife's exams with a male doctor. She is told to put the opening in the back. I think it is that way so when the doctor is ready to do her breast exam, he tells her to remove the gown. He usually pushes it away as far as he can. The one doctor took several minutes on each breast. She does have natural 32DDs. So, being a little larger, this one doctor took all the time he could. If the gown is far enoungh away, my wife can't reach it when he tells her to lay on her back for the viginal exam. She is totally naked with her legs spread apart. I have seen inside of her vagina several times.

My opening has always been in the front and the nurse leaves the room while i undress

I've always undressed alone in the exam room, after being instructed to do so by the nurse and before the doctor comes in. At my current gynecologist I am given a paper vest type gown, instructed to put it on with opening in front, and also a paper drape sheet for my lap. At my family practice doctor I wear a longer cloth gown with the opening in back. They also have cloth drape sheet for your lap.
