Alone or Not for your Physical Exam?

Always with my girlfriend.

You or her. And why?

I prefer being alone with the doctor.

I prefer to be alone with the Doctor and if it's required with a Doctor's assistant.

Always alone unless the doctor needs assistance

I prefer to be alone, especially when it comes to intimate matters.

I prefer to be alone.

Not talking from a position of experience, but I'd prefer to be alone - certainly wouldn't want to take anyone in myself - although the presence of a trainee or other member of staff could be fun.

Well, due to COVID-19 unless you need a care giver with you for mobility reasons it’s unlikely they’ll let you have someone with you even if you’d like someone to be with you.

For a real exam I actually don't like anyone, especially my husband, watching me being examined. For play exams, I do enjoy being watched by others who are not directly participating in the exam.

I would love to a have a female friend with me at my physical exam. But not sure which age I would rather get, maybe 1 who is 12 years older or younger one's?

My significant other and I accompany each other to almost all medical appointments. He is on this site as well. Aside from the fetish aspect, we feel that there's a lot of value in taking a team approach to health care and having a second set of eyes and ears (and a brain) with us.

The only person other than the doctor I would want would be another medic

I would rather be alone

I would like to be alone for a real exam.

I’m always alone. Don’t need help or a note taker. Always go to my wife’s exams.

I prefer to be alone however; I believe in the US most exams are done with the Dr. and a nurse or other office person in the room. This happens with my Dermatologist twice yearly exam for a mole check. The nurse is in the room with the Dr. and takes photos along with taking dictation from the Dr.

Some Docs will include an assistant to capture dictated notes. Dermatologist, but I had an orthopedic use one as well. I had a oncologist who had a note in the exam room asking you to notify the staff if you wanted an observer in the exam.

I have always had my mother or my father in the exam room with me.

I also have had physicals with my brother, both of us together in the room.

Up until what age?

Until I was 15, mum was always in the room; which was highly embarrassing. I believe this was due to UK “rules” that a child cannot give informed consent until that age and had to be accompanied.

After that I was able to go on my own and have never had anyone else in the room; apart from when I had minor surgery to remove a skin tag from my upper thigh / groin area. At that point, the Dr was assisted by the nurse. Apart from that time, I've not had a “proper” examination since I was a teenager; and certainly not had my genitals examined 😞 although I've not had any reason for an exam.

I’ve never had another friend or family member in the room with me while I was getting a physical as an adult. I think I would like to have my wife in there or even a female coworker in there with me.

Up until what age?

Until now, so far.

My first hernia genital check was in front of my mom and that was it until I was older. I didn’t see it coming and was basically warned beforehand. Anyway I needed a colonoscopy and my gf at the time had a female gastro doc so I was like this is when I need to just get the first one out of the way. I make an appointment see the dr she decides the prep and sends me to the waiting room to schedule, the whole time my gf is tagging along. So after a few mins a woman calls me back we both get up thinking it’s just scheduling. The woman is like you don’t have to come back with hi, I was like it’s no big deal. She introdiced herself as a pa and led us to an exam room. As soon as I entered the exam room I just had a feeling, there was a proctology table and a curtain in the corner. As soon as she closed the door she is like I have to do a quick exam real quick and then I can get your colonoscopy set up. Go on behind the curtain take off your pants and underwear there is a paper drape to cover up with. I did as instructe, she told me to kneel over the table and there I was bent over for both them to see. she gloved up lubed and told me to relax as she gave me a Dre. The whole experience was humiliating and erotic at the same time.

I prefer to be alone with the doctor.

I always go alone, but never receive intimate exams.

I wouldn't mind having any of my old girlfriends present or some of my female acquaintances but definitely not my wife. She is so full of unhelpful and inaccurate statements which she would certainly offer the doctor.

Aren't they all? 😜

I'd prefer to be alone. I haven't had anyone in the exam room with me since I was a kid and one of my parents had to be in the room.

Alone. I'm at the age where having someone else in the room would just be needless. Growing up, I had group physicals at my school, and I had family physicals with my brothers and I was never alone for a physical until I was off at college.
