Wearing a jockstrap to a physical exam

I had my physical exam today, and for the 1st time during any appointment, the doctor DID allude to my jockstrap.

Fantastic response from your doctor. I wish my doctor would acknowledge my strap, but she never does and simply conducts the exam without ever mentioning it.

I have never in my whole life actually owned or worn a jockstrap. If I did I might be wary of wearing it for n exam. Cool for you all tho!

I would think male docs would be much more likely to comment on it. Female docs are a lot less familiar with it, and some may think it may be potential sexual harassment or potentially offensive to the patient to comment on it.

I would not wear a jock strap to a physical exam. However, it does sound quite exciting to think about.

Jock straps were very common in my junior and senior high years. To this day, I love wearing an athletic supporter under a swim suit.

Everyone needs to do what they do. For me, I never wore one and would never wear one to an exam. IMO if I were a doctor it would look like that guy has a fetish and wants to be seen. I would think the person is extremely weird.

Have worn jockstrap for exams numerous times Inc. Once with female practitioner . Twice my rectal probe was done with it still on. James.

My doctor actually advised me to wear a jock strap instead of jockey shorts. He had some odd explanation why a jock strap offered more comfortable testicle support. Since I was in my 40s and hadn't worn one in years I had to buy a couple.

My next visit… doc was glad to see I took his advice. He told me he recommended them to mature men who are in shape because it enhances your sex life.

I'd like to share some interesting posts I've recently read on the subject that I have to admit, really turned me on:

"If I'm wearing my jockstrap and cup, it's so sexy because either the Dr will reach in, remove my cup, and pull my jockstrap down or he will unzip me, see what I have on and then ask me to take it down. If I have the cell block on, my favorite one was when the doctor looked at my pouch and turned to me asking "do you mind if I unsnap you". Loved watching him pop open my pouch. I was throbbing within a matter of seconds."

"I wore a jockstrap to a physical once. Normally I would pick something more "modest" but I wasn't expecting to have to remove my pants. ...When she was checking my back, she noticed the waistband of my jockstrap peaking out from my shorts. She grabbed the waistband and asked "What's this?" I told her that it was my underwear. She said "Neat!" and told me to go ahead and drop my shorts for the hernia check. As she sat down to perform the herina check, I pulled my shorts and jockstrap down, revealing my semi-erect penis."

This one from some guy who had to go the ER with an arm in jury during a game:

“A little later when they were getting ready to cast my arm his assistant, also male, helped me slip my shirt off and wanted to know if I also wanted him to help me remove my cup. By now the bulge in my pants was more than just the cup, so this time I said sure! He reached in there, got that cup out like a pro and put it in a bag with my other things.”

I thought it was really hot for that one guy to be wearing a jock, not expecting to be exposed in it, and then not only was he, but the reaction from seeing the waistband. Which if that were me, I would have made sure to take my shorts off first, then delay taking off the jockstrap for her to get a good look (since she seemed somewhat psyched about it) before eventually lowering that too. And then of course to pull them back up one at a time.

I hate to tell you gentlemen, but if you wear a jockstrap to a physical in this day and age, regardless of your sexual orientation, you've just identified yourself as a medfetter. Providers know.

We've identified ourselves as people who like to wear jockstraps. There may very well be people who wear jockstraps to physicals who are not medfetters.

The topic is under Medfet exams so it makes sense being here. Maybe not a “medfet” but more likely a “jock or exposure” fetish. Regardless, providers know.

I would never wear a jockstrap because that’s quite awkward but I have worn tighty whities to physicals and one time my doctor asked if guys still wear that type of underwear and I replied that they keep everything snug. never wore them after that though

@david823 When I was your age, I thought being seen in a jockstrap was very awkward. So awkward, in fact, that for 35 years since I started wearing one, I would rather have been caught nude than be seen wearing it.

It wasn't until around the time I turned 50 that I did a 180 degree turn and everything changed after that.

But in your case, I'm imagining you're under a gown for most of your exam anyway. And being young, you might be seen as the athletic type anyway, so an athletic supporter in a medical situation doesn't seem too far out.

@JTMac I guess it could be seen that way, but as someone previously said it is essentially outing yourself as a medfetter

I think it may show more that i am a jockstrap fetishist, not necessarily a medical fetishist

It's been a while since I had a physical (I probably should schedule one now that I think about it), but I do go annually to a cancer doctor for a skin cancer exam. The nurse who takes me to the room hands me a gown and tells me to strip down to my underwear and put the gown on. However, I freeball, so I just strip down and put the gown on.

The doctor that does the exam has never said a word or reacted differently. When he is checking me for suspicious moles, he just moves the gown around is such a way that the nurse who is in there with him can't see my junk--though I have noticed that he makes sure to check it.

Although the thought of wearing a jock strap to a REAL physical exam excites me, I just do not think I would have the nerve to do it. However, I would certainly be game for this attire during a play exam.

I've worn jockstraps to many physicals as well as dermatologist skin exams, and no one has ever commented on them. Except the one time i had a male doc, that when he went to do the DRE, said “I see you came dressed for the occasion”

You may not think you have the nerve, but if you're someone who enjoys the rush, then you “can't not do it”.

I think it also sends the message that you're not hung up on modesty, and therefore they need not be concerned about preserving it.

Wearing a jockstrap to legitimate doctors visit to support a “jock fetish” is pretty benign and doesn’t take advantage or force someone to participate in that fetish. I don’t see anything wrong with it, although I’ll show up in my regular underwear.

If it floats your boat, do it and enjoy.😄

Especially when you consider that some folks deliberately do not wear any underwear to their physicals or skin exams, and are examined nude or with a drape, as I've read in posts on here. At least a jockstrap covers up the genitals. If sitting or lying down, or even standing face to face with the doc, the ass isn't really visible. And if wearing a gown, it really doesn't matter what's on underneath.

I plan on wearing a jock to my next physical.

I did that a couple of times in high school when I was getting a physical and then meeting friends to play tennis after. Doc didn't say a thing but like my boxer shorts, the jockstrap did not stay on for long.

I wear jock briefs (which are pretty tight) all the time. I like the support they give my testicles which are rather big and tend to ache because they hang loose and low. I can't go commando because of it. Can't wear short gym shorts without them either for exposure reasons while sitting down. My doc & uro keep telling me the higher temps from being held so close to the body is bad for sperm production. I'm pretty much done with baby making so I wear them anyway.

I haven't met a doctor who hasn't seen it all. According to one of my doctor friends most guys where white briefs to exams although they admit the tan lines show that they might be wearing different or none at other times. most doctors rarely notice or even care what you are wearing.

No I have not.

Well, I wore my GRID jockstrap to my physical exam yesterday. No reaction from the doctor, as i remained fully clothed.

It was my 1st physical with this doctor. Her practice has been temporarily moved a couple of blocks up the road due to renovations. So i wouldn't know what the differences would be in layout. Her office had no exam table, and all she did physically was take my blood pressure, draw blood, and steth me over my shirt.

What I like about this GRID jockstrap is it has a strong 3" waistband that doesn't fold over like other waistbands tend to do.

With the vast number of styles and types of underwear and jock straps available to wear out there now, it does not seem surprising that few doctors would comment on what patients were wearing to their exams these days. I would think that most doctors have seen it all before and have probably seen more types and styles than what most catalogs even carry.

I have not but, this does intrigue me so maybe the next exam.

Do it, it's fun ! Just make up an excuse in case the doctor seems weirded out.

That “fun” may very well be a RUSH you get from being seen in it. Doctors have no doubt seen g string bikinis and maybe even wilder stuff. Think about all those that go commando too. And if they were to ask you about your undergarment choice, what's the harm in saying you like wearing them. They won't criticize you if it's providing you more support. Maybe they'd ask if anything was bothering you to cause you to feel the need to wear one.
