Always or Never do Before a Physical

Several days before exam, I prepare a small list of items I would like to discuss with my dr., such as meds, any small issues I may be having like knee/joint pain that comes & goes., etc. he had a good suggestion when I mentioned hand pain while bicycle riding. my next exam is in two weeks, latest appointment of day so I never feel rushed by him or his staff. Other then my list, just the normal common sense for me...clean body, clean clothes, newer boxer-briefs (yay! love them when they're new & snug), give myself plenty of time to get there. my recent hernia repair surgery went well as well as the follow up with surgeon. surgeon suggested in my medical file (I can easily view my medical records online with the V.A.) that I follow up with my regular doctor on my next visit to ensure hernia has not reoccurred, so I expect a hernia & testicle exam & perhaps a prostate exam as well.

Probably like most people, I always get a good scrub in the shower to make sure I'm clean, and I put on clean underwear. I always make sure my underwear looks nice, i.e. isn't old or have any rips or anything.

I would never wear a thong to a physical. I know he's going to probably be looking down there anyway, but I just would feel to exposed in a thong. I don't know why i feel that way, cause I don't mind if the underwear is like kinda thin, but I just feel a thong is too weird for me.

Before a real exam, I always take an enema, a long shower to make sure I am completely clean everywhere, masturbate, and wear new black boxer briefs. As to the rest of my clothes, I like to wear a button shirt and zippered pants with a belt just in case I get lucky enough to get a doctor who will unbutton my shirt for me and undo my pants for me...it has happened before and is so totally erotic. After the exam, I would definitely need to masturbate again as I relive it in my mind.

I shower, put on new underwear and masturbate.

Shower,shave under arms,legs and pubic area (which is waxed anyway) .Then I moisturise And put clothes on that are easy to get on and off quickly. I always wear matching pants and bra too.

I always take a warm shower and trim up the area around my penis in the morning. Then of course, clean clothes and underwear. Usually, I wear boxers in the summer (warmer months) and boxer briefs during the winter months. I will not masturbate for 3 or 4 days before the appointment.

Of course shower, clean up the pubes, and wear good underwear. Interesting here is the dicotomy between masturbating before and purposefully abstaining from ejaculation. I am very prone to erections during exams. For anything more than a 15 sec cough-cough I will be fully hard and pointed straight towards the doctors face. I think for that reason, I would tend to masturbate to try to decrease that. While it's erotic later, it's still embarrassing as hell then and I'm worrying about it the whole physical leading up to the genital exam. Now, that being said, has me masturbating before hand ever stopped me from boning up...Nope.

One thing for me is deciding whether or not to urinate before time. Sometimes I am asked for a sample, sometimes I am not. I never know!

I never arrange to do anything that requires sitting (e.g. going to the theatre, attending a conference or riding) before going for an examination lest I get injections that leave my bottom too sore to sit down.

Rinse, Lather, repeat...

If I have gone to my gynecologist (twice now) I have done just the same things both times so I think it has just become my routine. I just have a nice bath so I feel clean and before I get dressed I get my husband to do my bikini line for me like he does for me all the time anyway. It is easy when I have just had a bath and the electric shaver works well. So I have my pubic hair, it is just kept tidy.

I do not douche (I never do that anyway) and I do not paint my toenails. I do not fuck for 2 days before I go to see my gynecologist either, maybe he would not appreciate that. So the sex comes AFTER my exam and it is worth waiting for. 😈

I'm especially cognizant of mouth hygiene. Anytime I'm face to face with someone for an extended period of time (date, dentist, interview, etc.) I take extra care brushing, flossing, using the tongue scraper, and using mouthwash.

I also make sure to wash my feet extra thoroughly since I'm usually barefoot and the doctor handles my bare feet to check for length strength and flexibility. I also make sure my fingernails and toenails are trimmed and smooth as well.

I shave below the belt a day or two before.

I shower and get clean underwear without holes.

If I can work from home all day on the day of my physical, I'll wear basketball shorts, t-shirt and flip flops.

Don't eat anything after midnight before blood work. Get a weight check and blood pressure checked. I get ask on what meds I currently take and what brings me in. Temperature gets taken before the nurse leaves the room.

I'll tell ya what i may start to always do, following what I did last week.

Schedule a dental cleaning

In addition to the fasting I do the night before, I figure that if I am going to take a day off for an annual physical, i may as well also schedule a semi-annual teeth cleaning the same day.

Since i'm fasting, it's a good time to get my teeth cleaned since I won't be getting food & drink on them. With the 2 appointments last week, now I've synced up when I'm due for both. And I travel to the same town for both appts. So it makes sense to do them on the same day.

(and my primary care got on my case last year because I hadn't been to a dentist in a long while, so now we have that base covered 😉 )

Always: shower a few hours before and wear clean, easy to remove clothes (definitely short sleeves so I won't have to take my shirt half off if I need a booster shot in my bicep).

Never: Empty my bladder in the hours before the appointment. I am always asked for a urine specimen first thing and I find I'm quite embarrassed/aroused by it which makes me pee-shy unless I REALLY have to go. I may even drink some water right before to make sure I will be able to provide. The only thing more embarrassing than walking back through the waiting room with a full cup...is doing the walk of shame with an empty one!

In this order, masturbate, shower, clean teeth, mouthwash and all clean clothes which are easy to remove.

I always bathe. Put on Clean underwear. Shave

Always shower

I always shower and shave top to bottom. I never masturbate.

I always take a shower, I shave, I wear white underwear and I do not go in my pants

Put on clean white underpants!

Usually I shower, put on light makeup, and then endlessly think about how I'm going to be examined.

I always shower, shave my penis area, wear clean underwear and brush my teeth.

I used to shave my balls before going to the doctors (and before most situations where someone will see my genitals). Once when shaving before a physical, I gave myself a pretty gnarly rash on the skin between my left testicle and my leg. Later that day when the doctor saw it, he said, "Ouch. I'd recommend you stop shaving down there." I like the way smooth balls feel, but I had to agree. Now I just do a close trim with clippers and I think it makes for a better appointment (and less itching!).

Try waxing---nice and smooth and no cuts, although you might have an occasional hair follicle that bleeds.

Before a physical, I always masturbate, shower, and brush my teeth. I never get tired of thinking about what is about to happen in the coming moments. ?

Why do you masturbate before the exam?

I am always extremely nervous before a physical. I always schedule it for first thing in the morning because you usually do not have to wait very long since the doctor has not had as long to fall behind with his schedule. Before this day arrives, I have ceased trimming my pubic bush and allowed the hair to grow on my scrotum. I do this because I like to maximize embarrassment and having full pubic hair makes the penis appear smaller. I use a Fleet enema, so the doctor’s glove will not be dirty when it comes out of my anus, and shower. I always wear white briefs and prefer Calvins or Jockeys because they are a little skimpy in the fit and the fabric is thinner than other brands. I also wear no watch or socks so that, hopefully, the exam will be done in absolutely nothing except the tighty whities. This makes me feel more vulnerable and humble in front of the completely clothed examiner. Tension has begun to rise as I leave for the exam.

I'll bet you dollars to doughnuts it's to help prevent an erection during the exam.

Others have said that in prior posts and I'll bet you already knew that.
