Foot stirrups vs. leg rests preferences

I've had two kidney stone removal procedures, scoped through my penis. Both times I was put in the knee supports, flat on my back, legs elevated, spread wide, two velcro straps to keep my legs in place. I was awake with an epidural for both procedures. It was very erotic to me being naked and spread like that for the doc and nurses. If not for the block I'm sure I would have had an erection when the scrub nurse was washing my groin area. The kidney stones were brutal, but the procedure to remove them was highly erotic for me.

I have only used stirups.

I think stirrups are only for women

I've had both. Now my gyneco uses classic stainless steel hell stirrups. She put them high, About 40 cm over the table. With this position Legs are wide opened.

I am seeing my gynecologist this week for the annual exam. She always has the coldest and biggest speculum for my small self! At the end of the exam she puts ky on two of her fingers and pushes them up my little hiney. I feel the result of her attentions for the rest of the day.

There are stirrups in her office. I have only been in leg rests at the urologist's. That is where I learned to love urethal dilation!

In Europe there are legs rest usualy in white plastic short and where legs are bended and others longer where legs stays horizontal. I prefer the first ones. Feet are lowers, not over the gyno head when he's sitting in front of you.

I much prefer the stirrups for my GYNO exams,but have also had leg supports when younger for urologist exams!!

I'm glad that I'm not a girl!!!

I'm in the US and have only ever seen/used stirrups at the gynos I've seen over the past 15+ years. I HATE them, I always seem to end up getting a cramp in the arch of my foot. Foot cramps are BAD pain, no fun at all. I'd love to have a play exam with leg rests they seem like they'd be much more restricting but also more relaxing.

I can honestly say that I have used both. Hands down, without a doubt I LOVE leg rests. They are more comfortable on everything, from your back down to your toes. Whether it be for a real exam or a play one because I am in the same chair for both, I can relax and be so much more relaxed, comfortable and not having to worry about my foot cramping or my legs getting tired or falling out. Leg rests are just so much much much better.

I am English not American but here my gynecologist examined me in a chair with leg supports. I do not know what stirrups are like but I bet they are a bit harder on the legs really. I could relax my legs in the leg supports.

I abhor stirrups. Unless I'm horseback riding, I want nothing to do with stirrups.

My doctor's table has oddly shaped footholds and there's little traction because there's no hole to drop your foot into. There are small bumps on the plastic footrests but she covers them with some sort of fleece sock and it renders the bumps useless. This has led to my foot (once, feet) flying off the stirrup a few times, especially if she's having me squeeze or press down for any reason. It was only troublesome once. She had a speculum inside me and it was simply too big and I was in a great deal of pain. I tensed up and off went my foot. It led to a little bit of bruising and a loooot of apologies from all sides.

She's definitely made a lot of notes in my chart on how best to do my annuals, i.e., type of speculum, doesn't tell me what she's doing (again, I tense up otherwise), etc.

Sooo, all in all, I much prefer leg rests.

For me It is just stirrups but that is the only thing that my Gyno has in his office, my feet kind of cramp up sometimes even though I try a wiggle them a little. I have heard of leg rests and I think I would really prefer them to the damn stirrups. They sound a lot more comfortable.

I would love to be examined with my feet in stirrups or leg rests, the feeling of my cock, balls and ass being fully exposed to the doctor or nurse makes my heart race thinking about it..... Would you expect your legs to be restrained as well? If so how?

This subject is for LADIES!!! It is about real exams too and not play exams with bondage and restraint!!!

I have only been in stirrups. I think for a play exam, I would feel better in leg rests.

The examinations I have had so far was frog position up to age thirteen and foot stirrups from that point on. Foot stirrups allow closing of ones knees giving me a feeling of some control. Never been in knee supports must feel strange stuck in a spread eagle with feet in free air unable to close ones knees.

My wife has only been in the knee supports a couple of times. Most of her exams have been in stirrups. She really has no preference. Like you said, she likes the feeling of some control while in the stirrups, since the knee supports do tend to force you to keep your knees wide open. But she said the knee supports are more comfortable. It's easier to keep her legs and therefore her abdomen relaxed for the exam. And she likes how she can let her feet relax and dangle versus having to keep her feet firmly planted in the stirrups.

I would prefer leg crutches to stirrups any day but here in the U.S. where I go its the stirrups for me, sometimes I get cramps in my feet which hurt a lot and I complain to Dr. LOL 😢

As a male in a real hospital situation, I was in the leg cradles. I was having a malignant polyp removed from my bladder. Quite comfortable.

I have used leg rests when examined at the gyno's but at home our chair only has stirrups so that's what I am used to and like.

I've only experienced stirrups.

All I've ever had were stirrups. I like my knees dangling while be open to anyone.

As the fem of the couple I much prefer knee/leg supports. More comfortable to be able to relax into. The Dr/playdoc can adjust them as wide and as high as he wishes very easily. This makes for a far more spread open and humiliating exposure and also allows the Dr/nurse easy access with whatever instrument they chose.

I also prefer to be sat up slightly so that the Dr can look at my face/eyes and I find having to answer humiliating questions in that position a real turn on.

I think that depends on the doctor or clinic. My doctor has both but I have only been in the stirrups. The doctor I worked for had both as well. I don't know if there was any reason other than if they were going to do cryosurgery or something like that.

It depends on the doctor. My normal doctor uses foot rests, but when I was in jail they used leg rests. Leg rests give you less movement and keep you more secure, so I would assume that that is what is used the most.

My doctor uses leg rests. But I like the idea of stirrups.

My girlfriend has only ever had stirrups, but in L&D rooms at the hospital I work at they only use leg rests. I have heard from coworkers that the leg rests are much more comfortable for long term use.

My doctors have stirrups only on end of exam table.

I've only had stirrups. However, all my friends who have birthed babies have been in leg rests during the delivery.
