I was in my mid-20s for my first physical, which was with a female doctor.
A nurse escorted me to the exam room and took my vitals (temperature, weight, blood pressure). She handed me exam shorts and left after saying, "The doctor will need you to undress completely, including your underwear. Please put these on and she will be with you shortly."
The exam shorts were pretty big and loose. They were made of a mesh that did not really hide what was within. Sitting on the table, I think I felt more exposed in those shorts than if I had been without them. The doctor entered and introduced herself. She was petite, in her twenties, calm and matter-of-fact. The head to toe exam began with her looking into my ears, eyes and mouth. She placed her hands on my left and right cheeks and maneuvered my face as needed to give her the right angle of view.
Next, she felt the lymph nodes near my neck and underarms. All this was skin-to-skin contact, she was not wearing gloves yet. Out came the stethoscope, it felt like she listened to every square inch of my body from shoulders down to belly button, front and back, making me cough as she listened to my lungs. Her gentle but firm hands guided my posture, turning me as needed to give her access. I was instructed to lie down, and had my reflexes tested. A small plastic hammer was used on my knees, but on my belly she tapped with her middle and index fingers. All this was done with the doctor clearly telling me what she was about to do before she did so.
"I'm going to examine your groin". A statement, matter-of-fact, not a request. I had been basking in the subdued enjoyment of my body being practically nude and for the doctor to examine and manipulate (all very professional). This reminded me the last wispy coverage over my genitals was going to be drawn back. I heard the snap of the doctor putting on gloves. As she lowered the loose shorts, I lay back trying to stay calm, breathe normally and look at the ceiling. I was too embarrassed to look at the doctor, though she been kind and gentle throughout.
The first thing she did after lowering my shorts was place her hands at the top of my thighs and palpitate on each side, like she had for the lymph nodes in my underarms. The testicular exam started, my penis was moved to the side as she grasped my sacs one by one and asked me to cough. This was completed before I could gain any significant erection. She drew up my shorts, asked me to sit up and finished her exam with instructions for get blood work done, some vaccinations scheduled.
I relished her manner and went back to her for several subsequent physicals.
