Gyno exam in Japan

Hi,

is any woman present here who has ever undergone a gyno exam in Japan? I would like to know about customs in japanese clinics.

Hi

I had numerous exams in Vietnam, gynecological as well as with a lactation specialist, but not in Japan.

Can only report what my ex-wife told me in the 80's, that they do group exams with less privacy than in the USA. Wouldn't be surprised if it's different now. There's much fantasy film in Japanese erotic about this, suggesting to me it actually took place, or still takes place.

Can you elaborate on that?

I have noticed that in many Japanese gyno exam videos a screen is lowered at waist level so that the patient can not see what the doctor is doing down below. Although respect for the patient's modesty seems to be the pretext for this, it also provides the doctor with freedom to engage in some unprofessional activity without being observed!

I've been wondering whether a screen is used in actual gynecological practice in Japan, or is it just a device invented by those who script these videos?

I have been told by Japanese Women that the screen is actually being used. The woman would otherwise lose her face.

IN my fantasy, I like the screen to be over her collar bone so that her breasts are still on the side of the examiner.

Thanks for that information Nagus. In the past, the use of similar screens was certainly known in the West. Some months ago I saw a fine example made of wood, maybe a century old, in the splendid Medical Museum in Sacramento, California. This museum is off the beaten tourist track, but well worth a visit.
