Males: Position for Rectal or Genital Exam

1st of all, my wife and I go with each other to Drs appts. Last time my younger female Dr noticed I had not had a rectal exam for 3 years, “ past due she said with a smile”. She said let’s do a quick genital exam first”. She had me stand next to the table and “lower pants and underwear to knees”. She inspected then palpated penis, opened urethra, felt testicles, also quickly then pushed her finger up into groin by scrotum and had me cough. She then said, “ now turn around and rest your chest on table.” My wife sitting right behind and got “ a great view”! Dr. Told me to “bear down and her finger went up my rectum. She turned it to all angles , then said,”you will feel my finger pressing on your prostate, just relax”. She pressed hard and Actually made my penis flinch a bit.

Gave me some tissues and turned away to enter into computer while I wiped. Said my prostate was a bit enlarged but will check it again next year.

Got in car and wife smiled and said that was fun,”! She said she loved watching me bent over with my balls hanging and watching docs finger go up my rectum. Went home and I had her bend over the bed and gave her a good humping! Gave her a big load of seman. !

During the medical examination, the testicles were examined in a standing position, the penis was lying down, and through the rectum I was examined on all fours, leaning low. All possible positions.

Now the urologist is examined lying flat, and the prostate examination is on four or lying on the side. Once I was examined by the rectum in a diaper position, I had an ultrasound scan in the same position

I had 2 genital exams so far. First one was when I was about 18-19, that was part of medical exam for army, performed by female doctor in her late 50s.

I was standing for that, she just lowered my underwear.

Now second genital exam was performed by male doctor, I was standing too.

My first and only one rectal exam was done with me on my left side with right leg bend.

I was on my left side for first and only one so far rectal exam done by male doctor.

Had 2 genital exams, both times I was standing with underwear down to my ankles. Doctor female/male were sitting on chair.

I'd say most of my genital exams have been performed while standing. But I recall a few done while I was on my back.

Most rectal exams have me leaning over the table. Two were done with me on my left side. And do colonoscopies count as rectal exams? If so, put two more in the "left side" column.

My doctor now will have me remove my briefs and conduct an inspection of my genitals after he has examined my abdomen. During that, he has lowered my waistband such that pubic hair is visible while he feels down to my groin. He then has me raise up my hips and removes the briefs tossing them onto the chair and returns to examined my penis and testicles. At times, he will make me turn onto my side, raise up my upper leg at the knee thereby exposing my anus. He has felt the outer area and told me to "Push" as a finger presses into me. He inserts it fully and will twist left and then right before removing it. Next I stand and feel that weird sensation of KY between my cheeks as he does a hernia exam. He has also examined my prostate with me leaning over the table, legs spread some, and leaning onto my elbows. The sensation is different in this position. I feel his finger more with his hand pressing up against my exposed cheeks. Usually he attempts a casual conversation during this process which is thoughtful. I surely leave with the knowledge that he has given me a good exam.

My doctor has me remove my underwear and while lying on my back on the exam table, he conducts the testicular and penis exam. While in the same position, he does the hernia check. Then he orders me to lie on my side with my knees up to my chest for the prostate exam. Honestly, he gives a very thorough prostate exam and seems to keep his finger inside my ass for quite some time while probing my prostate slowly and at a quicker rate. I then wipe off and get dressed while we are still talking about sports or a non-related medical topic.

Genital Examination: Laying flat or standing.

Rectal Exam: Laying on the left side or in stirrups-

Only one, when I was seventeen, was standing. All before or since have been while lying on the table.

Well first I am female, but I am also a nurse, so will be speaking from nurse side as I have seen so far doctor/s to perform rectal exams/genital exams on male patients. I see these exams now and then, but its not everyday.

So in my country genital exams I have seen only to be done with male patient standing and doctor sitting on chair.

Rectal exams were done in 2 different positions:

1)In urologist office only on left side

2)In proctologist office either on left side or if more examnination is needed then on all fours/aka knee chest position on exam table.

At my last annual exam, the PA examined my prostate while I was lying on my back with my feet in the stirrups.

Was this a real exam @bikeo ?

To LadyDre74: I assume you were serving as a chaperone or witness to these male genital exams, which is a particular interest of mine. I would love to read about some of your specific experiences in such encounters. Thanks!

My role play "doctor" performs an initial genital exam with him seated and me standing in front of him legs apart and knees bent. A further and prolonged genital exam takes place when im face up and legs in the "frog" position permitting him full access.

Im then on all 4s for my rectal exam..

Usually standing and laying in stirrups.

Ive always been examined standing up.

My pediatrician always did the genital exam with me lying down. I had to strip to underpants at the beginning of the physical and when he was ready to examine my boy parts he stripped me naked, then put his hands around my testicles and jiggled them around, then picked up my penis and palpated it all over. It felt wonderful to have his gentle, caring hands handling my testicles and penis. The best thing about it was that my mom was right there watching everything and I would be looking at her smiling and enjoying looking at my naked male equipment as my testicles were jiggling and my penis was twitching.

Genital exam mainly is done when guy is standing, as it allows to access all sides/parts more easily, it also provides nice view for a bit kinky nurse like me!

Sometimes patient could be lying on the back on exam table with legs bend.

Now for rectal exam, the most popular position is on left side, that is usually used for prostate checking and in same cases in proctological exams.

Some doctor would perform prostate checks or general DRE in bend over exam table position. These 2 positions are more comfortable for the patient.

Most of proctological exam are done in all four position, which can create more embarrassing and discomfort.

If you like it/want to try different positions, try different doctors!

For most genital examinations I have been laying down on the couch, only a few times over the years while standing.

Males can get their genital examined in various positions, that also depends if its only genital exam, or other procedures such as prostate exam are involved. The quickest way to perform genital exam is to ask male stand and drop his jeans/underwear. Doctor then uses gloved hand to examine his penis/genitals. For more throughout exam, male could be asked to lay down on exam table on his back and if doctor needs to continue with prostate/rectal exams he/she can ask patient to roll on his side.

Of course if patient is standing for his genital exam, doctor can ask him to turn around and bend over exam table or get on his side on exam table for rectal exam. In some cases patient could be ask to get on all fours. Some doctors prefer patient to be on all fours for genital exam and then after that he can continue with rectal exam. I think this position would be the most uncomfortable position of them all.

Genital exam always standing and doctor is either sitting on chair or standing too. Rectal exams including digital rectal exam, prostate exam, scope insertion were done in: on my side, bend over and all fours.

Most of doctor were males with nurse always present. Since I must admit like to be watched and exposed, I prefer where my genital/anus is more visible to nurse.

At the pediatrician I always got examined lying down, though I switched to an adult doctor now. I think they’ll do the genitalia exam with me both lying down and standing.

On my left side, holding my knees to my chest, and completely naked for the rectal exam (I've only experienced this kind of exam once); standing completely naked or just with my pants and underwear down to my ankles for the genital exam.

I only recall 2 rectal exams, both as an adult. The first one was with my pants and underpants removed, laying on my back with my legs up in stirrups and the doctor first sticking his finger in and then repeating it with a rigid proctoscope to check for rectal irritation. That resulted in several prescriptions for anti-inflammatory drugs which cleared up the problem. The second was curled up on my left side with both legs pulled up to my chest and my pants and underpants lowered to check for an enlarged prostate. The enlarged prostate resulted in me being scheduled for a trans-urethral re-section of the prostate which went well with no lingering side-effects.

My genital exams have been done standing up, although I think having them while laying down would be fine.

Laying down, you may seem more like a subject / object to be examined. And thus, having those objects (genitals) within the object, you, being examined, puts the emphasis on the whole subject thing.

I have had my genitals examined both while laying down and standing. No preference.

Both standing up and laying down works for me. But I would prefer laying down a bit.

Both. I’ve had most of my genital exams while standing up. Growing up, my pediatrician always check my genitals while laying down. I do prefer standing up over laying down. Once, my doctor checking me for a hernia while laying down it was rather uncomfortable.

As far back as I can remember I have always been standing for genital exams. For prostate it has always been standing and bent over the table. I have had prostate cancer and been to a myriad of urologists and I have never had any doctor do an exam in any position other then bent over the table.
