Men: Did you wear underpants at Pediatric exam?

My school doctor pull down my briefs enough to palpate testicles and penis, but he doesn't remove them.

My pediatrician always used to reach into my briefs and feel my testicles, and then would pull down the front of my briefs for a quick visual inspection, then place my waist band back at my waist and had me stand with my back to her and bend over...she'd then lower the back of my briefs slightly to check my spine as I bent.

In my younger days of this the doctor would come in an told me to drop em and then the exam would begin I was completly naked durning the whole thing

Does really seem to depend on the doctor and age.

Young - we don't know.

Older - Seems to be subject to the Dr. I've been 100% off, or Dr pulled back to take a look. Or slide down to knees so enough out of the way.

When I was younger I would leave my boxers on and when it came time for the genital exam the doctor would pull them down to my knees and begin the exam while I was laying down.

Take them all the way off for a female examiner, and just enough, or slightly for a male.

I always had to remove my underpants completely, therefore naked, for the testicle exam.

The doctor usually slides them off for me. He/She usually asks me to raise my bottom if I'm on exam table or lift my gown if standing.

When I was young, and until 18, always completely removed at medical exam at school.

Now only pulled down on my knees.

Always pulled down to thighs. Only once did I have to get compltely naked. This was I was 18 and had some suspicious moles. I had to lie down on this examination couch and two (!) doctors (a young male and a female of about 25) proceeded to examine every inch of my skin with magnifying glasses. I've never been so aroused in my life. I remember being very worried they would smell the (strong!) aroma of my intense sexual excitement.

Dr. always have me remove them for the exam. Usually just naked not gown, but if gowned he also wants me bare under it. Then for genital exam he/she has me lift the gown.

My pediatrician always had me lie on my back on the examination table and lower my underwear down to my ankles.

Mine were always on my back and then shorts down halfway to my knees with female examiners. In one case she tried to pull them down vigorously but couldn't be I was on the table, so I just arched up a little bit so she could get them off.

Mine have always been pulled down to around my knees.

This has always been different with me: my pediatrician would usually just ask me to lower my pants, while on my back, and then lowered the front of the underpants to examine me. Another time I went to a female urologist (or so I think she was), to examine me for a suspected phimosis, who asked me to lower both my pants and underpants and lie on the examining table, while she and a nurse inspected my foreskin and applied an ointment to it, to see if it could retract more easily (which, fortunately, it did).

Then, as a teenager, I had a different female doctor who undid my pants for me, and lowered the front of my underpants to examine me. And lastly, a few times in the last years, I had my regular (female) doctor ask me to drop my pants and underpants to my knees, while she fetched the gloves. Both times I had to wait a minute or two, naked from the waist down, while she got them and put them on.

I've also heard, from a male friend of mine, that he once went to a dermatologist, who examined him with his underwear on, for a rash he had on his arm. He had gone with a female cousin of his, and therefore couldn't believe it when the doctor asked him, somewhat unexpectedly, to drop his underwear so he could check whether everything was fine down there. He had to stand there, naked in front of his cousin, for what seemed like hours to him.

My pediatrician had me lie down or sit at the end of the table for the genital exam. He usually slid his hands in my underwear then pulled my underwear down slightly I guess to take a look.

In my underwear at first then the pediatrician would pull them down to my ankles to examine my genitals

Changed doctors while growing up. one would have me stand in front of him while he sat in a chair and told me to drop my drawers and i just let them fall to my ankles while he did his exam. the other doctor i had when in high school would have me lay down and he would pull my underwear down slightly himself and do a check.

Pull down slightly just enough for the penis and balls to be out of them. It just silently tells you that this was done only so that your genitals could be examined.

For the hernia check, I was lying down and my pediatrician would lift up the front of my boxers and pull them down enough to expose my privates so she could check for hernias. After that I would have to stand and completely remove them for the genital exam.

I had to strip to my underpants, and for the hernia exam I just had to push them down to my knees.

For pediatric exams, during that age, The doctor would instruct me to strip to my briefs. The genital and hernia exam would be the very last part of the exam. It would follow the abdominal exam during which I would be lying supine on the exam table. The pediatrician would instruct me to stand up next to the table and would command me to "slip your pants down." I would stand next to the table facing him and pull down the front of the briefs to the upper thigh level, far enough to fully expose the penis and so that the scrotum was fully exposed and to allow enough space for him to get his hands in there to feel the testes. The routine was the same every year until I went to college: take the penis in his hand and spread the meatus, feel each testicle thoroughly, then finger in the inguinal canal and instruction to "turn your head and cough." Just about perfect for thoroughness.

When I went to my pediatrician's office the exam started with me undressing to my underware. He would pull the briefs front down then examine my penis, testicals and hernia when I was flat on my back.

I changed doctors somtime during my high school/college years. I stiill go to a family practice with 5 or 6 doctors their physicals are conducted in the same manner. At the end of the exam, the doctor tells me to stand with my feet apart alitle and drop/pull down my boxers/briefs. I usually pull my underware down to mid-thigh or knees. Then he checks my penis, foreskin, check my testicals and then the hernia exam.

I was always told to keep my underwear on with a gown on as well. But once the doctor entered the room he always asked me to remove them. If he forgot sometimes, when it came time for the hernia exam, he would pull them down to my ankles or just take them off himself.

I was a chronic free-ballin' child and my mom used to require me to wear underwear to go to the doctor. He would just pull them down for a quick genital check.

I experienced it both ways, but also had several doctors..

Growing up the dr I started seeing at age 12 always had me take everything off including underwear from the start when he came in. no gown was offered so I was complelty naked for the whole exam very humiliating experience always the same every year I went to him until 18

Doctor would have me lay on my back, then would pull them down to my ankles and do the genital exam. It wasn't until I was an adult where they had me naked (with gown) during whole exam.

Like most here, my pediatric experiences always started with me being stripped down to my briefs only and ended with my briefs completely down to my feet for the hernia and testicle exam. No rectals in those days but as an older kid the doctor might have me turn around with my briefs all the way down and spread my buttocks for a look.

As far as I remember, I most of the time had to strip to my briefs first and then remove them completelly during the exam. I only went to him until the age of 7 or 8 years. Sometimes I wonder how long I would have been naked during the exams, if I would have gone there until the age of 18.
