Full Physical-No Gown

Yes — completely naked. This probably took place 30 years ago and so I suspect things are very different in the Netherlands now.

@kgf Interesting. I reckon Germany is freer about nudity than France, it perhaps extends to the Netherlands.

Yes, with my pediatrician years ago. These exams are hard to come by nowadays. Doctors now don't even ask me to undress one bit. Makes me worry that they’re not even being as thorough as they need to be.

The world is changing. I have been with the same doctor for well over 20 years. A few years ago I reported for my annual physical and for the first time I was asked if I wanted a gown which I declined. I am comfortable enough in my underwear and it is probably easier for my doctor. I still get asked.

In Germany its normal without gown, so you are in underwear or naked.

In Italy we don't use gown, usually you are in your underware and then naked.

No gowns here in Germany so I just know it that way

No gown here either.

No Gown just naked !

I think I've just changed the way my doctor does her physicals.

If they offer a gown I will refuse it unless they insist.

With my physical exam coming I wanted to ask you this. I recently answered this question on a website I'm in. I felt what I wrote covered it well so this is a copy.

Q: Was your physical more thorough than you expected?

ANS: Post number11

"For about 40 years my doctor had me completely naked for the whole physical. Doing a DRE, testicle check, rubber hammer bonks and foot bottom feather rubs then sit on the table naked for any discussions. I was there for 20 to 30 minutes while the doc looked me over thoroughly then sent me to a specialist if needed. Three different doctors over the years did the same plus the same thing for several employment new hire physicals. My last doc retired when Obamacare took over and I now go to a group where I'm lucky if I get to see the doctor I chose and when I do she just listens to my lungs and heart on top of my clothes. I don't feel like I get a physical anymore. At my age (over 80) I think it would be more important than ever to get a full naked physical. There is a whole lot of my body that I can't see or feel myself."

If something was growing somewhere I'd never know it until it became the size of a golf ball or some patches of skin that don't look quite right.

I'm not complaining about you because I appreciate your service but I do have that concern. If you'd prefer we can discuss it when I come in but I didn't want to blindside you with my question. If that's the way they tell you you have to do it now I have to accept that. If it's just because you are afraid to embarrass me, at my age, you won't. The army and life experiences took care of that many years ago.

Thanks for your patience, Rxxx.

Received:Tue 9/14/2021 5:40:26 PM GMTRxxx, point very well taken. I agree it makes things much easier for both of us if we have all patients undressed during physical exams which I am going to start doing from now on. Thank you for the suggestion, I really do appreciate it. See you soon, Dr. Xxxx

I have never had a gown for an exam. Either undressed to underwear from the start, or removed clothes as required.

I usually receive my physicals in no gown either, just in my underwear. Never had a problem having it done that way!

Apart from seeing my regular Doctor for coughs colds etc. The only time I’m ever examined without clothes are for work related exams I’ve had. I never have a gown, I just have to be in my underwear.

Always a gown at ob/gyn. But never anything off at GP. I dream of having a humiliating experience, but reality is usually not as good as fantasy.

@curvyfemme Sounds like you're getting a half ass physical with your GP. May be high time to find a new one…..

Humiliating experience…..If they tell you at the ob/gyn to leave your panties on under the gown, wear something wild & sexy. If nude under the gown, don't bother tying the gown…..

Absolutely, what @JTMac said. In my experience, if you want a humiliating experience, you often have to create the conditions for one yourself! If you expect that you'll be asked to undress and keep your panties on, then by all means, either “forget” to wear any panties that day, or wear something that is more revealing than usual. Or simply decide to take everything off instead of leaving them on. When the nurse comes back in, you can just casually say that “you thought it would be easier for the doctor if you went ahead and took everything off now.”

It's not really that difficult to create a situation where you'll be embarrassed or humiliated. I've found that it helps to plan different scenarios in your head ahead of time. If they tell me to do this, I'll do this, otherwise, I'll do that. Just think of all the ways they might tell you to get undressed (or not) and plan how you'll react to each one of those.

I have never worn a gown for an physical. Just in my underwear, until I’m instructed to either lower or completely remove my briefs. Once or twice, I have remained fully clothed then undress as require “strip as you go”.

My previous physician, who was actually a Nurse Practitioner and I had known from her time running the ER in the hospital where I worked, always had me take off everything but my socks and wear a gown. They also gave a little drape to cover my privates while the gown was pulled up for abdominal exam. I hated the gown. It was constantly slipping down anyway, I had to drop it for heart exam, raise it for abdominal and hold it up while she checked my testicles and hernia. Being comfortable with her from previously working with her the second time I saw her I asked if I could just skip the gown and cover with the drape until the end when it was time for testicle, hernia, and prostate exam. She said yes and we did it this way for about 5 more years until she moved to an Urgent Care clinic and I got a new Doctor.

Sounds exactly like my past experience. The gown simply gets in the way and is basically useless. The paper drape allows you to cover up just enough so that you won't flash someone in the hallway when the door opens. Once you're comfortable with your health care provider, you simply have to ask if you can go without the gown. Rarely will they say no.

I had my exam yesterday and I have mixed feelings. It was the most thorough one I've had since Obamacare and I had to choose a new doctor. So I guess my note to her did some good. Her nurse took my vitals and wrote in the computer then left saying the doctor would be right in. She came back and said I had to take off everything but my underwear and put on something that looked like a nightshirt. That seemed ridiculous so I got down to my underpants and waited. The doctor came in and said “Oh you didn't put this on” and she brought that nightshirt over to where I was sitting, held it behind me and put my arms into it. Then she had me sit on the table and removed it from my arms to look over my back. Thus ended the battle of the nightshirt. Now I'm down to just my skivvies while she did the rest of the exam. Then I stood up and she had me lean over the end of the table, drop those to my ankles and she shoved a finger or two up my ass almost forceful enough to move me upward. She exclaimed “You have a tiny one” which is exactly what the nurse at the VA said the day we first met so I almost laughed. Then she looked at the sore strip I had next to my balls the last time I saw her and pronounced it all better. We determined it was jock itch which I told her I knew nothing about as I wasn't an athlete in high school.

So I guess I started out in my skivvies and a night shirt and ended up naked. Now if I can bring her around to me being just plain naked from the start. I'll have to work on that.

Our prior GP didn't use gowns for physicals. She would have me undress down to my bra and panties and I would remove them as needed. But they were put back on after the exam of that area was complete, so I wasn't fully nude. @Deviant1 would wear just his underwear for his physicals, and they came off for his genital and rectal exams, so he was fully nude.

I've also had docs who did the whole strip as you go thing. But for the most part, my docs have used some form of gown or drape, etc.

We both start out in a gown at our dermatologist's office, but the gown comes off pretty quickly, so we both end up nude. That's fine with us, because skin cancer can happen anywhere there's skin, even where “the sun don't shine."

In Germany Gowns are really only used in hospital so yes I have recived full physicals without a gown

That describes every single one of my exams up through the age of 16. At 17 I switched from a pediatrician to a general practitioner, and never since have had an exam only in my underwear.

I live in the uk and i have never had a gown in the dr.

Like I already said here in germany its the same, we don't use gowns at all unless it is necessary for hygiene reasons and procedures but not for exams

Gowns in uk are worn only in Hospitals for x rays or exams or procedures ie colonoscopy etc

I recently spent some days at the hospital and could not stand wearing the gown, I felt much too warm.

So I took the initiative to took off the gown and stay in bed all naked, still having bed linen covering me from the waist.

On the occasion when the nurses did need to check me to control my temperature or to make an injection, I just kept naturally myself, genuinely naked and exposed. It was very enjoyable.

Nobody made any remark or negative comment about the naked situation or blame me. The staff even seems to take it as it was, not showing any reaction at all.

I did enjoy though to be an occasional “naturist” in front of the staff in uniform, sometimes there were two nurses visiting my room, in that case I was feeling proudly spoiled.

The most difficult was when a nurse has to clean my naked body in bed with a hot compress, because even if I was sick and probably have fever, her cleaning process on my skin could eventually lead to cause a hardon…. So I had to make some efforts to stay decent…. Which was also very exciting as a challenge.

After 2 days I could finally wake up so one of the nurses helped me to go to the shower cubicle, still all naked, holding me by the waist, and then proceeded to start the shower and adjust the temperature of the shower. When it was allright, I did enjoy a full body soaping treatment while I was holding me against the wall, and I had to spread my legs when it was the turn to my private parts to get soaped, it felt like paradise.

And yes that young nurse did smile during the process.

By night, when another nurse took her shift, I had a painful headache and asked for some painkillers. After a short while, she came back with a pill, pour some water in a glass, then hold my head for me to adjust to take the pill, right against her generous chest in her uniform. There as an immediate tingle down under the bed linen, and later that night I had to have a wank to release this arousal.

I would say that has been a majority of the exams for me. Only one nude under gown.

Just recently my female physician had me strip to underwear, no gown then had me remove my underwear and again no gown. She did however ask if I wanted to be somewhat covered up and I said well since I am having a skin exam, does it make sense to cover up. She then said that she likes to ask anyway.
