Czech Republic

Do women have to be in the nude for gyn exams in the Czech Republic?

I have seen a really good film from Czech Republic and the woman had an examination gown on and had the vaginal and rectal examination with her legs in supports then she got off the examination couch and stood in front of the doctor and pulled the gown over her head and stood there naked while he examined her breasts.Smith

According to experience of my female friends they don't have to be fully naked during the vaginal exam.

Do women have to be in the nude for gyn exams in the Czech Republic?

I´m pretty certain that such is not the case, but the impression that this is so, may have been implanted in many minds because of the prevalence of Czech produced gyno exam videos ... there are a number of good producers of gyno/exam films that are of Czech origin and so the imagination works overtime ...

Like much else, conditions during an exam will vary widely according to which doctor you go to.

But since I do not live there, feel free to correct me if I am mistaken. It´s just that I think that this will be a case of media creating a mistaken impression about a national characteristic ... happens all the time ...

European women in general are less concerned with modesty than their American counterparts. Most Czech Doctors do not drape patients during a pelvic exam. A patient may be on the exam table for several minutes with the lower half of the body completely exposed with staff members present. If this is a concern, the patients are advised to wear a long top or a dress to the pelvic exam. A woman will be expected to undress from the waist down, but a long top or blouse/tunic will cover her until she needs to be in position on the table. Some Czech doctors do have drapes or gowns, you just need to request one. After the pelvic, a patient is asked to undress fully for breasts exam. Most of patients prefer to be naked from the beginning not to waste time.

It would be interesting to conduct a poll of all women on here to find out exactly how they're dressed for their gyno exams and see the difference from country to country
