First Genital Exam

I'm sure that the doctor at least checked down there even when I was a baby, and I remember his hand going inside my underpants from an early age. But it was two totally separate physicals when I was 11 years old, in 5th grade - one at school, and one at a private doctor - when I realized that my genitals were something important for them to include and when my genitals were fully exposed, looked at, and felt.

When I was a kid and my parents took me to the pediatrician, I remember him lifting up the elastic of my underwear and sticking his hand down and feeling my testicles. The first full testicle exam that stands out is when I went for a complete physical when I was 24. I hadn't really been to see the doctor much since I was a teen and thought it was time to go for a check up. Things went pretty standard; my doctor took my medical history, and then had me strip down to my boxers and he started the exam. Things were going pretty much as I remember as a teenager until I was laying on the table and he was pressing into my abdomen. I could feel my penis start to stir a bit but thought nothing much about it. Then my doctor said that he needed to check me for lumps and he asked me to slip my boxers down to my ankles. I did as he asked but realized that I had a full erection at this point. I was embarrassed but laid back down on the table with my penis poking up to the ceiling. He examined my testicles and I remember having feelings of embarrassment and pleasure at the same time. The exam was over after that. I have been seeing the same doctor for almost 25 years now and still look forward to the testicle exam when I go for my physicals.

@Boxers50 After 25 years with the same doc, do you still have an erection when he examines your testicles?

I might have had it before, but the first time I can remember having the doctor checking my genitals was at the age of 12/13. It was also the only time I can remember that my mother was present in the exam room. This was during a regular development physical provided by the public health service. The regular drill was to undress to my underwear right from the start while the doctor was watching me. Then at some point during the exam, I had to come and stand before the doctor while he was seated on a stool. He then asked me to ‘blow on the back of my hand’ which I thought was kind of weird that first time. While I was doing so, without a word he pulled down my briefs to my knees. Although I was surprised, I kept blowing on the back of my hand and while the doctor was watching me, I started to get an erection. He then told me that I could stop blowing and started to check my balls. He made a comment that one of my balls was hiding but after some fumbling he seemed to have found it and he then continued to check my penis which was fully erect by now and pointing straight up to the ceiling. He didn't say anything about it, but I felt myself blushing, very aware of my mother also being present in the room. However she was sitting behind me in a chair in the back of the room, so I hoped that she could only see my bare bum and not my erect penis. Next the doctor pulled up my underwear again, covering me up before moving me to the exam table, where I had to lay on my back. After feeling and listening to my abdomen he asked me to lift up my hips and he removed my underwear completely. Now I was laying there completely naked and exposed with my boner in full view of the doctor AND my mom. I didn't dare to look at my mom and just stared red headed at the ceiling while the doctor was checking the range of motion of my legs and then finally feeling my balls again as well as my entire penis and foreskin. After that he told me that he was finished and I could get dressed again. He moved to his desk and invited my mother to take a seat acrros the desk, while I had to climb of the exam table completely naked and scramble towards the chair next to my mom where all my clothes were left.. … total embarrassment but on the other end also very exciting and I guess the start of my fetish.

After this first experience, I always thought that the instruction for 'blowing at the back of your hand' was necessary to intiate an erection such that the doctor could have a good check. At that age, I even tried this when I was alone at home and standing naked in front of the mirror: blowning on the back of my hand, watching my erection grow. Interestingly, it does put pressure on the lower part of your abdomen making you very aware of that part of your body.

@medexam I would have thought that blowing on the back of your hand would have the hipos loosening effect, thereby making it easier for the doc to slide down your underwear

The first genital exam that I remember was probably when I was around 12 or 13 years old. The nurse took me into the room and did some basic measurements and questions then asked me to take everything off besides my boxers and the doctor would be in. I remember being a bit anxious and embarrassed sitting on the table in just my boxers. The doctor came in and started the general exam and toward the end asked me to lie back on the table. He felt my stomach and abdomen and got to the waistband of my boxers and said something like “okay now I need to check how everything is developing down here” and lifted up my boxers and slid them down to just above my knees. I just stared at the ceiling feeling even more embarrassed. He felt around my pubic hair first asking when I started to notice it and lifted up my penis and moved it to the side. He then talked about testicular cancer and making sure to check monthly and felt my balls thoroughly on both sides. He then mentioned how I was going to start noticing everything getting bigger and that my progress looked fine. I remember feeling really vulnerable as nobody had really seen me naked at that age and to also comment on my development. That was standard for the exams for my teenage years with that doctor but the first time was probably at that age.

I was around 16 or so. I had a regular male Dr at the time. However at the one particular checkup he wasn't available so a woman Dr checked me over. Being very shy I was mortified. I do remember however getting semi hard at her examination down there.. and recall a smile. Never forget that. Of course that night I had to take some matters into my own hand..if you know what I mean

My first genital exam was at the gyno when I was 14. I was really nervous and embarrassed but it really sparked my interest in exams.

I've always had a genital exam. My pediatrician had always done it even long before I hit puberty. But it was also probably because I had 1 undescended testicle that had to be checked to see if it would come down on its own or not. Ended up having to have surgery for it because it wouldn't come down on its own. I think I was around 9 years old at the time of surgery.

My first genital exam was made by an old female doctor when I was 13(and a virgin).

My mom took me there due to some menstruation troubles and I was really nervous because I didn't know what to expect.

The doctor told me to drink 1L of water the night before the exam and she told me not to pee until the examination was done. So when I got to the exam room, she said that my mother had to be with me and she gave the gown.

“You can remove your clothes in the bathroom” she said and I obeid her. That was the first time I was totally naked to a stranger. I remember that in the room was another female doctor.

Once I was undressed, she told me to put my self on the stirrups and she made me an abdominal ecography.

“You're healthy, your menstrual problemes are due to your young age. I need to do one more test, can I check your vagina and your hymen?"

I was surprised by that question, I wanted to say no and run away but my mom said yes and I didn't know I could argue. So the doctor inserted a thin swab through my virgin pussy and watch it carefully, it didn't hurt but I felt weird (and a bit turned on).

“You have a good vagina, when you will have intercourses you won't have any problems honey.”

That turned my face fully red because my mom was there.

After her words she told me to go pee and I felt relieves.

This was my first post here, I love this forum. Thanks for reading.

The first genital exam is at birth. An external assessment is always done in the neonate period.

The first I really recall having actual touch of the scrotum and penis maybe around 7 but to many decades ago to accurately recall.

I brief external exam and scrotal palpation should be happening at all routine checkups growing up.

After the usual pull and peek, back in the late 90s I was 13.

The doc did the abdominal, then had me stand and finish stripping." I did, and got the full frontal' as well as a visual of my anus. Almost ten years later, I had the first finger finale.

This is a diificult question to answer. Wen I grew up in Norway we had yearly school physicals totally naked. They checked my testicles at 7 and I had a hernia check at 14. Apart from this they did not touch our genitals.

But I had thorough pelvic exams at 6-7, 12 and 14 under some degree of anesthesia. But these were internal exams where they used several kind of instruments both through my urethra and anus. But there were surpricingly little interest in my outer genitals when I was awake.

But at 10 my father sudddenly found it mecessary to check my foreskin to see if it could be retracted. I had thight foreskin and my father already new this. That resulted in visits to a surgion that found out that my foreskin could be treated with dayly streching, and it worked well. But neither that was a full genital exam. I think my father had got a message to check if my foreskin was retractable , because they planned these pelvic exams wiith full admittance to my urethral opening.

I am pretty sure I had that kind of pelvic exam at 4 also, and I am sure these exams also involved checking my genitals, even though I cannot remember well these details. What I actually rememberglimpses of, is laying straight or in stirrups and things being inserted ito my urethra and anus.

This pelvic exam is actually a standardized procedure with a long history and in some communities all children have them at certain ages, most ofren at onset of puberty or just before they begin school. It is not tolled very much about it to the public. But I once found a short desciption about it at the website of Cincinatty Children's hospital. What is described here, is fairly near to what I remember. The vaginoscopy parts is of course only for girls. But the material I have gathered indicate that boys have the procedure twice as much as girls. This procedure is actually much more extensive than told at the page, especially in boys. At least that is my impression. The rectal exam is often extended to full colonoscopy, and the cystoscopy to inspection all the ways up into the kidneys. In addition to optical scopes, ultrasound is also used. What happened to me was probably not of the very extensive kind, though. But I have indication that they used some inflatable balloons to widen my urethra and terminal colon.

When I grew up in Oslo, Norway, I had the impression that all boys had it sometimes from 6-14. For some it was done in a hospital, from others at the school. My impression is that it was done together with hernia surgery and tonsillectomy from children having these procedures. For me and a few others that did not have any of these procedures it was done at special rooms in school.

Our first pediatrician was a wonderful man who sadly died by the time I was 6. Thereafter, we saw another doc whose style was to have you thoroughly undress, endure a rectal temp, and experience genital exams. I saw him for about 4 years and then switched to another practice. It seemed by then it was routine to have my genitals examined as well as having by buttocks spread wide open.

The first Genital exam that I remember having, was at Junior School at the age of eleven, The School Doctor started checking your scalp, (presumably for livestock living in your hair), then moved down to my Eyes, Ears, Nose, Mouth. I was already in just my underpants, (as all us lads were). He then put his freezing cold stethoscope on my chest, asking me to breath in, then out, several times. He did this several times all over my Torso - front and back.

Then he got closer to my underpants and without warning, pulled them down about nine inches. Looked at my Genitalia, then looked up at me and said “Oh you're Circumcised”. I didn't actually reply to this, as I was frightened that I might be in trouble - because of it !! (remember I was only 11, and didn't know it was a perfectly normal thing for some boys). He didn't actually do the hernia test, maybe they don't do it at that age ? Anyway, He told me to pull my pants up, and he carried on down each leg, to my feet, checking everywhere. That was the end of my first Medical that involved a Genital check. It is funny that I have never had a ‘back passage’ check at any Medical check - very strange !

The next Medical I remember, that involved checking the Genitals, was at Senior School, when I was about fifteen. Amongst other tests (as above). They did do the hernia test this time, by the “cough & balls” method. There obviously was no problem there, as nothing was said to me, and no comment was made about my ‘cut’ penis either. The mentioned Genital checks are the only ones I've ever had. There was never any ‘feeling & fondling’ in that area, for any other checks, (other than the Hernia test I mentioned).

I don't think they use the “cough & balls” method of checking for hernia's anymore, because during a more recent medical check, the Doctor did it by placing a hand on my stomach, just above the pubic area and just below the Navel, then asked me to cough. This was done whilst I was lying horizontally. Maybe a genuine Doctor on here could comment on that procedure ?

My first genital exam was at school by the school doctor at 11 years old. The female doctor had already done the basic stuff like checking ears, nose, throat and eyes and listened to my heart. Then she made me laying down on the exam table and listened to my abdomen and palpated my abdomen. Then she asked me to take off by underpants and she felt my testicles and pulled my foreskin once or twice back.

... I don't think they use the “cough & balls” method of checking for hernia's anymore…

Oh, they definitely still do the turn your head and cough exam to check for hernias.

I’m pretty sure I always had a genital exam even if it was just pulling out the waistband to look

First hernia exam was probably 11

Oh, they definitely still do the turn your head and cough exam to check for hernias.

Since i started going to my PCP 6 years ago, neither her nor her husband (they share a private practice, and on occasion, he's done a physical) have done a hernia check on me.

Which i find odd, because from the time i was in single digits and all throughout my years with a fomer employer who used to give annual exams well into my 40's, there was always a hernia check. And then to find out within recent years that men have had them without knowing it, I would think would be all the more reason to check for them.

I blame all this modesty bullshit. These PCPs are contemporaries of docs that have performed them on me in the past.

The first one that I remember was in second grade at school was in a room with 2 other guys the nurse told us to strip down to our underwear then went one by one behind a curtain where the doctor was he sat on a stool and told me to drop my underwear I still remember his loud breathing while he felt me up.

I’ve had them for as long as I can remember but when I was young, it didn’t really bother me. It wasn’t until a few years before I started puberty that I would be embarrassed by my parents and the doctor seeing my genitals.

I'm unusual it seems! My first genital exam was at 16! Kinda late to the party! Up to that point I had never even been looked at in my underwear let alone examined below my waistband!

To cut straight to it: I was lying down shirtless but with everything else on. I wore boxers (not boxer briefs) and jeans with a belt. My doctor didn't say much though the exam up to that point other than “take your shirt off” “breath in and out” x2 and “lay down for me”. After I laid down my doctor just kinda got on with his work and examined my abdomen for a minute, then still with no words he began unzipping my jeans. I didn't react at all to this because being 16 I knew exactly what was going on, even if I had not experienced it first hand yet (I had of course Googled teen checkups upon learning I was scheduled for one). With my jeans unzipped and unbuttoned he stepped away for a second to grab one white latex glove. Before he turned back around and took the two steps back to the exam table I made sure to look away and stare up at the tiled ceiling. The genital exam I knew was coming was both something I wanted to avoid due to the embarrassment but also wanted to happen. I was worried about if my genitals were normal (even tho I had no evidence they were anything other than completely normal) and this exam would erase those fears.

My doctor returned to me lying on the table with jeans undone and without a word used his ungloved hand to take hold of the waistband of my boxers and pull it down to below my scrotum, the flaps of my jeans folding out of the way in the process. His gloved hand simultaneously going down to my scrotum and pressing on the right side, my right testicle pressed between some unknown number of fingers and my crotch. Either while he pulled the front of my boxers down or right after pressing on my scrotum (but not before) he finally uttered the words “I just need to check you for a hernia. Cough.”. I coughed “harder” I coughed a second time. He moved his gloved hand to the left side of my scrotum, once again pressing my testicle between his fingers and my body. “again” I coughed a third time (making sure it was also sufficiently hard!) while feeling the base of my penis make contact with latex due to how his hand was positioned. He placed my waistband back about where he found it (it was either a bit too high or low, I forget which) and told me to get dressed.

In the five seconds this hernia check/testicular exam took I got about ⅔ erect. He didn't do any foreskin exam but would have seen it retract about half way due to my growing erection. By the time he put my waistband back I was fully erect. I still remember how hard my penis was while it pitched a high tension tent from between the flaps of my jeans as I sat up. Hearing no report of anything being wrong I at least knew I was normal down there.

A brief note on his method: While not either asking for me to pull my own boxers down or telling me he was about to check for a hernia before pulling my underwear down himself was technically wrong I don't think that was a major problem from a practical standpoint. It was more of a procedural error fixed by simply saying the same exact words “I just need to check you for a hernia.” a split second earlier before the waistband is pulled down, instead of during or after the act of exposing genitals. The lower in age you go for a lone teen the more important advance warning or self exposure becomes but at 16 not a serious problem (again, still wrong by the book), especially if the teen has had a previous exam that included a genital exam with the doctor in question (unlike myself). Some amount of “he knows the routine” can be assumed at 16?

Anyone have thoughts on this? Am I completely off my rocker in genital exam fetish bias?

Your post is excellent! I think you are right in thinking that your doctor made a slight error by not letting you know that he was about to expose your genitalia. It sounds as though it was just a minor deviation from good etiquette based on the context of your description of the exam procedure. Was he a new doctor for you and assumed you had had genital exams before and therefore he did not need to give a verbal introduction to the exam?

Was he a new doctor for you and assumed you had had genital exams before and therefore he did not need to give a verbal introduction to the exam?

He was a new doctor for me yes so he almost certainly would have assumed I had already had a couple genital exams by then. He was also close to retirement so not a new doctor in tenure either. He gave off a very “on autopilot and getting this done quick” vibe for the exam. Even at 16 I was able to pick up on that and was eager to get it done and get the heck out of there ASAP myself.

@justaherniacheck: Thank you for your detailed report of your experience at the age of 16. I can understand very well how you must have felt at the time, because I had a very similar experience during an examination at the doctor's at the same age. If you wouldn´t live in another country, I would say that we had exactly the same doctor 😄

My doctor was also a bit older at the time and was about to retire. As it was similar to the case with you, my doctor spoke relatively less at the time and didn't really explain what he was examing and what he was going to do next. It seemed to be a matter of course for him to examine a 16-year-old girl almost undressed on the examination table... It was a very embarrassing situation for me at the time. But also a very formative experience.

I always wondered if he had done this examination on boys as extensively as he had done on me? But I'm pretty sure that it was the case. In any case, in my imagination I always imagined the examination of boys exactly as you described it.

Same for me merkin. Read about it in my blog

Think I was maybe 10 or 11 ish. Doctor examined my penis as I stood in front of him. Don’t remember more unfortunately Early experiences definitely helped to have a medical fetish later

I always recall the pediatrician lifting my waist band and checking each side on my abdomen and then lightly touching my scrotum to check for both testicles. When I was 12 - the pediatrician had me laying down for abdominal examination. Shirt was off and pants were unbuttoned and unzipped. He would then get a smaller white towel and would tuck it into the waist band area. H would then pull down my pants leaving my briefs where they were. He would explain that he needed to examine my penis and testicles and explained puberty and tanner stage to me and mom who was sitting in the room. He held up the white towel so as to block my moms view and then told me to pull my briefs down. At first I resisted, but then he reached his other hand down and started to pull them down himself. He first looked and said everything is growing normally and then he started rolling my testicles. As my erection grew- he made eye contact and said “it’s ok and thats normal bud” he checked the tip of my penis and then had me pull up my briefs. Next instruction was to roll onto my left side so he could “poke me in the Fanny”

I am sorry but I am not really my first genital exam. All I remember the 2 genitals exams I had at the age of 18. Was there any more exams before that, not sure!

Was standing for both of them. First time just in my underwear, which was of course lowered and second time fully dressed with jeans and underwear down. Did not do much of excitement for me.

My Medfet began at age 6 when I had my school entrance exam. Us kids all went to the local elementary school on the same day and had to strip down to our undies for weight/height measurements.

Then, each of us was called to a separate room where we had to take our undies off and walk up and down the room (to check our posture I guess). One of my earliest sexual memories is when the nurse sanitized her hand to forcibly retract my foreskin, which was really painful at that time. I later relived that moment when playing doctor with friends, which became some of my fondest childhood memories.
