Urologist Visit... 1st Time Since 19

So long story short:

Trying to conceive again, was not happening.

First SA, perfect 35M count in early 2012 or late 2011.

Wife has some issues so we were trying for IUI and sperm sample came low, at 4M.

Did another one a week later and it was even lower, 1M and prolactin was off.

Was diagnosed years back with a varicocele, am healthy, take Ritalin for AdHD.

So I'm not even sure if this is MedFet but I'm going to the urologist tomorrow for the first time since I was 19. Then I went because I had a girlfriend who didn't like my curved penis and I wanted surgery. He talked me out but checked my prostate on stirrups which was fun lol.

Back to tomorrow, I'm nervous but kinda excited because I know I will be examined.

What should expect. How thorough should that exam be?

I wish I could help you !! Good luck to you and and your partner 😃

Varicocle is more than likely the issue had one fixed Sept. Of 2012 said count and motility improved greatly. Surgery is not that bad its just the location causes some pulling. So good luck

I wouldn't mind hearing a more detailed report of your exam at 19.

Ya! Tell us about your exam at 19.

So at the time I was dating a girl who didn't like the fact my penis was curved, banana shaped, downward. So I wanted to have surgery for it and told my parents. My dad took me to his urologist who in talking to me, talked me out of the surgery and while I was there told me he would check me out. We went to a different room, without my dad and he told me to take my pants off. He examined my testicles, pulled back the foreskin, asked me to cough and then pointed to the table. Told me to lay down with my legs hanging and my butt on the edge and then he pulled the stirrups out. Told me to put my feet on there and to act as if I was squatting, my butt hanging off the table pretty much and my anus completely exposed. He then pulled his stool and sat pretty much with his face on my crack. He felt my testicles some more, lifted my my penis up, and then lubed up his finger. He lathered up my anus with lube and then inserted it. He told me to relax and then to push as if I was tryin to poop. Asked me to do that two or three times while he turned his finger. Then applied some pressure to the prostate and felt my testicles. On his way out, he felt the "folds of my anus" with his thumb on the outside and his finger on the inside. He then gave me toilet paper and rolled over to where I could see him. He talked to me while I Laid there butt all gooey with fresh air hitting it and my penis exposed. He then stood up and helped me up and told me to clean up. As I cleaned up, he was still in there talking to me.

Because that was the first time I had a prostate exam and back then did not embrace the fact that I'm straight, love to be anally penetrated and have prostate stimulated or that I'm a CD, was in shock and embarrassed but when I think back, that was the best prostate exam ever!

Intense story, Leah! I'd definitely like to be in stirrups like that some time. How did your most recent exam end up going?

Eh...he saw my issue was fertility, checked my bloodwork and said my prolactin levels are off. Scheduled an MRI to see if I could have a benign tumor on the pituitary, negative. Now waiting on the bloodwork he requested which is checking to see if I have a genetic disorder such as having an extra X chromosome. He examined me down there very quickly and said my varicocele is too small and he believes my low sperm count is due to something bigger.
