Rectal exam

My Doctor always does the vagianl exam first and then my excitement begins to build as I know she is going to tell me to relax for her to perform the rectal exam.

My nurse girlfriend and her friendws refer to the DRE as "the finger wave"

When I wen't to see a GI doctor for a serious diarrhea complaint.

He did a abdominal exam then had me bend over on and did a dre.

In my area the doctors do pelvic and rectal exams on females and rectal exams on all new patients

My wife is a nurse and said she get a rectal with her gyn exam but it is not as extensive as the one I get. Not sure what that really means. She went to the ER once with abdominal pain when she was 25. She said she got both a pelvic and rectal eventhough she told the doc the pain was upper abdom. She was pretty sure he was just getting off. Also said he stuck his whole hand in for the pelvic (thumb excluded) and it hurt like hell. Nice guy!

Never seen my wife get a rectal as she has never gotten one, but in the case that they would ask I hope I have her in the mindset to say Yes. She knows I like to "examine" her rectum myself and I have told her how it is important especially since sometimes she doesn't go to the bathroom much--that is my excuse for her to let me do it anyway.

As far as me as the male goes-- I am in no way anal excited for when that time comes later in life.

My Gyno does a digital rectal exam after she finishes the pelvic exam. She usually has me lie down on the table on my left side with nmy knees drawn up. The nurse is always there and I always wondered if she is getting a bit aroused when she sees the Doctor insert her finger...I know I sometimes do!!!...smiles

I have only had this done once, which is strange and a little disappointing to me since I have been to the emergency room several times for belly pain. Shouldn't that be a really important part of examining anyone who complains of that?

I've never had a gynecologist ask me if I want one, though they usually ask if I've had anal sex and I wonder if they'd perform a rectal exam if I said yes. Next time I go the answer will be yes, so I'll let everyone know how that works out!

I've had a few rectal exams over the years, starting off with getting them from a Paediatric Surgeon when I was very young, and then latterly aged 24 and 27.

I used to absolutely loathe them when I was younger, but the one at 24 was actually not that bad (other than the freezing cold lubricant). I think a lot of it depends on the doctor's technique, amount of lubricant and the angle they go in at. The last one I had got the angle wrong and it felt like she was scraping her fingernail along the wall of my rectum - and she wondered why I yelped!

As videographer said, 'Relax the muscle.' Anyone who tightens entry because of a bad previous experience or no experience unfortunately sets up a problem and a doctor may seem to be forcing his/her way in. Relax, take deep breaths, think about lying in the warm sun and it's a neutral action. Add an experienced provider with short nails and it's over before you know it. As a former prostate massager, I had the time to let my fingers wait for relaxation and worked with, not against, my clients.

My girlfriend hasn't gotten one yet. Hopefully that will change, the doctor never even asks her about anal sex. Maybe its because I am in the room with her.

My wife"s gyn does not ask. She just goes ahead and does it. My wife knows what is coming.

Both my ex girlfriend and current girlfriend had them done at the end of exams while still in the stirrups. Neither ever said that they liked it or not. Just said it felt a little strange. I wish they both knew how much it turned me on.
