Nurse/Gyne and self-breast exam education

Which of you would like the nurse or female Gyne to demonstrate how to do a self-breast exam on themselves in front of you?

Not me. I'm not there to see her breasts, she's there to examine mine. The usual practice is for the practitioner to demonstrate self exam using the patient's own breasts. That way, the practitioner can point out any landmarks, areas to watch or abnormalities such as cystic breasts.

No real medical female professional would demonstrate at herself how to do a breast self exam. the practicioner/examiner is there as said to examine both ath inspection and palpation and may instruct the patient about what and how to do it and what to look for.

My situation is slightly different as I am not a medical professional as such.

We have been running a breast self examination campaign for a few months now.

Our ranking physician started the process. At the medical center we found that we had so many personnel, their families, transient people and surrounding bases to cover it was not always practical to carry out the instruction during a physical so we started group ones in parallel.

I was asked if I could help as people know it is a cause I have been championing for years and I was happy to participate. I act as the medical model showing everyone how it should be done and then the women do it with the physician giving advice as needed.

Just the opposite happenned to me. My female doc showed the procedure on my exam in front of a mirror.

I was counseled, taught by my GP on my own breasts.

Our school matron showed us how to examine ourselves every month. I have always followed her advise since and have taught my daughter & extended family the same

Would she show you physically and have you examine yourself in her presence monthly or more the theory of it each month ??? Either way very good habit to get into.

She showed us how to do it once both for the self exam method but also how to be examined by a partner to encourage regular exams. After that you would either exam yourself at a convenient time which was normally after "bath time", or if minded to do so you would examine your friend and vise versa.

I wouldn't want the doctor or nurse to demonstrate unless I never had to see them again. It would be more beneficial to me to have a model with a similar breast size, 38C, to demonstrate. I know that would never be possible but it would be nice to fantasize about happening.
