What kind of rectal temp do you prefer?

Laying prone with my arms at my side and my face down. feeling my cheeks spread open was delightfully horrifying

A NORMAL (98.6F) one! LOL!

I prefer to use vintage glass rectal thermometers when I am laying prone for sure. I tried many types of rectal thermometers glass and digital, many shapes, but there are many more shapes of rectal thermometers just perfect for mu butt. I would love to experiment all shapes of rectal thermometers from the oldest to the newest.

Like it to be using a clinical thermometer with digital console and a probe like that of suretemp. I’d like to be bent over examination table or be in prone position. Like the examiner to lubricate the probe by her tongue. Then gently insert the probe half way.

A NORMAL (98.6F) one! LOL!

Most people grew up being told a ‘normal’ temp was 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit. That widely accepted number originated from a study done in the mid-1800s. But newer studies suggest the average person today actually runs a little cooler than that – somewhere between 97.5 F and 97.9 F.

“Typically anything in the range of 97 to 99 degrees Fahrenheit is considered normal, but there are times when a perfectly healthy person might have a body temperature that’s slightly higher or slightly lower than that.”

I’m not sure if I fully understand what you’re asking here.

I liked both ways my rectal temperature was taken. It was either with me on my stomach with my gown open (or already off), my panties pulled down (or already off) and then the feeling of my cheeks being spread open or it was with me putting my hands on the desk, taking a step back and leaning forward and then having my panties pulled down and the thermometer inserted.

Those are literally the only two ways I’ve had it done since I was 11.

@ccm93 , I love your descriptions below. When I am giving an exam to a female patient, I generally follow what you have said below!

I always give my patients the option to start either dressed or in a gown.

I was reading the other day that several studies all show the rectal temp is the most accurate way to take the temperature, however, an oral temp or any other temp is usually within a degree or two of the rectal temp. I've implemented into my exams to take the patient's forehead temp and then I will take their rectal temp. If they agree also, I will also take their vaginal temp (obviously with a different thermometer) to see if there is a difference. I've actually found the vaginal temp to be slightly higher than the rectal temp, but I can only imagine why that would be the case!

I prefer a glass clinical one but the kinsa thermometer is fun as well. I like my kinsa app saying “rectal reading” on it

Actualky a glas thermometer. The funny thing is that when I was a child I even didn't know that glas thermometers exist. I got my tempearture taken with a digital one. I'm 25 now. And when I was young there were no longer glas thermometer common in Germany.

I like to have my patient start in a gown with nothing worn under it. I go through the motions of taking vitals like pulse and blood pressure, then announce I'm going to take her temperature while holding out one of those fancy new forehead thermometers. I click it a few times and frown saying hmm the darn thing isnt working, so unreliable - luckily we still have the “old fashioned option” and I pull out a glass thermometer. I tell her to lay on her rght side and bend her left knee up to her chest, if she protests at all I tell her its more accurate this way anyway. I tell her Im lubricating it for greater comfort and am also going to lube her. I spread her with one hand and rub her anus with the lubed finger. I tell her shes too tense, relax.. then I tell her theres a trick to get that sphincter to relax by having the opposing muscle pair tighten and I slide a finger into her vagina and tell her to tighten her muscles around that. This allows my finger on her anus to slip right in about an inch. I then put the thermometer in and hold it in place, resting my spare fingers on her clit. I'm interested in seeing if she starts to wiggle in response to this.

I like the glass/mercury type, and that goes into my bottom

Prefer the old-fashioned thermometer because you have to wait 3 minutes before you get results

Suretemp clinical temp with probe and handheld monitor unit.

Oh, not shoved all the way in. Just inserted halfway

Glass thermometer and a temperature probe with a plastic cover. Laying on my stomach.

I am 71 Thoughout my life, I have had a strong rectal temperature fetish and I have shared this passion with most of the ladys I have lived with.

I enjoy as much having my temperature taken as taking my partner's. For me, rectal temperature is a way of making love, just like oral or anal sex.

Imo, rectal temperature has to be reciprocal. I take yours, you take mine. I also like the rectal temperature taking to last some time and imo it has to be done with an old fashioned glass mercury thermometer.

For me, the feeling of the thermometer slowly penetrating your rectum is such a wonderfull sensation, especially if the taker plays with the registering thermometer

.

My most frequent position for rectal temperature thoughout my life has been on my ladyfriend's lap. I find the feeling of my hopefully erect penis on the lady's thigh so exciting. But my partners have often lead me to practice other positions, mainly ''in all four'' or the famous ''diaper change position''. I find both rather inconfortable, but admit they can be quite erotic. 'on all four'' gives the partner the opportunity to watch your genitalia and eventually to play with it. The ''diaper change position'' opens more the anus to the thermometer and allows for eye contact with the partner as the thermometer is registering . Lost of the women I lived with said they enjoyed so much seeing my face expression as they were playing with the thermometer in my ass.

I had a wonderfull relation with my last ladyfriend for more than ten years and thermometers played a big part in it. We used to take eachover's temperature on our lap every day, first thing in the morning. It felt so good, so intimate. Unfortunatelly, my girlfriend dumped me two years ago and I am now alone to take my temperature.

Still, after a few months of dispair, I have realized it can still be fun to take my rectal temperature.

I lie on my side, naked on my bed. I set my smartphone timer on ten minutes. I insert the thermometer real deep. Then, as one hand let the registering thermometer move very slowly back and forth in my rectum, my other hand plays with my erect nipples. I close my eyes and remember the good rectal temperature taking sessions I have had.

I prefer mine to be taken by my playdoc lying face down on the exam table. The old glass prism-sided ones (which was designed to keep them from rolling away on a flat surface), but feels great when Doc twirls it between his fingers as it goes in. Needless to say it takes time to get a temp and he will have to check it a few times (and re-insert). Always makes me ooze loads of pre-cum having my temp taken rectally.

I feel like I might be in a minority but I like it on my back. That's how I had it taken.

I prefer an old style glass thermometer. I like to have it taken when Im not expecting it. Out of the blue being told that You don't look well. turn over and take your pants down Im going to take your temperature. Then being told if you have a fever Your going to get a suppository or enema, maybe both.

Diaper changing position and glass or welch allyn suretemp plus rectal thermometer and my diaper taken off.

A glass rectal thermometer laying on my tummy

Because I have never had my temp taken rectally (except as a baby I assume, and I can't remember any of those occasions), I can't answer anything about what equipment I would prefer. I do know, though, that if I were having this done, I would want to lie over the taker's knee, yes OTK all the way, as if I were about to be given a spanking. I can't think of a better way to have this done to my bottom!

With a giant thick thermometer

Old fasioned glass thermometer. Laying on my back legs wide spread open. Given by a pretty young nurse or nurses. ( nude of course) lol

That is Nurse's decision. What she chooses is nothing to do with me.

Diaper changing position with my pampers or Huggies baby diaper taken off and either using a Welch Alyn 692 Plus thermometer or an old fashioned glass rectal thermometer. Followed by getting a diaper change and suppository.

I prefer the rectal temperature taking method when I’m getting it taken. I prefer that it be done by a female, though I have had it taken by males. I prefer to be in white briefs, having them lowered either hurriedly or slowly, left about mid thigh or behind my knees.

I grew up on the glass thermometer being used on me and prefer that type, though not often found or used in medical facilities anymore, so if I must, I get the digital or more times than not the electronic thermometer probes used.

Regardless of the type, I anticipate the spreading of my buttocks knowing my most intimate orifice can be seen as can my scrotum and penis. Then feeling the fingers spreading them, a bit of coolness as they are held open. Next the sheathed lubricated probe, the coveted digital thermometer or the glass type, all lubricated and then inserted into my rectum for the needed time for registering.

As the caregiver stands beside or slightly behind me while they await the time for the reading to finish; and have a little bit of discussion of the procedure from about my briefs to my having my temperature taken rectally and sometimes comments about I’m wise to having it taken this way.

Then the hand across my buttocks with the glass thermometer between the Caregiver’s fingers or they’re immediately after inserting the glass thermometer, turning it to see where the mercury is at ( I don’t know why, because the lubricant may make it difficult to see the column clearly- usually the thermometer is wiped after removal ).

Then with the thermometer removed and a time or two I recall, a light tap on my buttock with the admonition of, “ the doctor will be in to see you shortly.”

Gosh, this scenario played out so many times in my childhood-teen years. Each time, I would be quiet and anxious as I was told to undress and lay on my tummy. Once I heard this, I was resigned to have the thermometer inserted in my bottom.

The mercury and/or alcohol glass thermometers are visually the most appealing. Manipulated just right in my rectum, it easily feels the best. I do also enjoy some of the thicker thermometers as there are definitely times that I enjoy the 'full' feeling.

Agree with @Shygirl17 .... the older mercury thermometers are more attractive than the battery operated digital junk they sell today. I'm a fan of the wider candy thermometers that have a bit more "stretch" associated with their insertion.

@Shygirl17 - The older styles are totally the best! So effective to move one in and out, twirl it and tap on it's tip while it is in an appreciative behind
