Male pubic hair before exam

If you think medical professionals (nurses, PA's, doctors) might somehow think you are odd because you have trimmed or shaved your pubic hair, you shouldn't be.

.

That is probably indeed the case now.

But back in the 1980's, 1983 or 84, I was already shaving but also still getting regular check-ups by a (lady) oncologist. One time i lost track of the exam date and I had just shaved a few days prior. Well, it being 1980's, the oncologist was a bit taken aback, certainly surprised. This I could see by her expression as she palpated my lower abdomen. She too did the undress to underpants protocol and then later the rest comes off. In any case, she felt and couldn't seem to find any hair. First she gave a concerned look at me, maybe thinking hair loss due to tumor coming back, but the she saw the rest of shaved condition on lowering my briefs and then she gave me a long look, not puzzled, not disapproving, maybe something in between.

So, there was a time when it would have been unusual for medical personnel to see shaved genitals on a male. But my instance was long ago.

Male here and hairy! I never shave any part of my body. I love my natural pubic hair and enjoy displaying my natural body it to a male doctor … especially my current doctor who happens to be a smooth Vietnamese man. During my initial visit with him, the nurse informed me that the doctor likes his male patients to be bare chested and during the chest exam the doctor commented on my chest hair. Weird and hot at the same time!

Well, I`m shaving my intimate are every two weeks, sometimes even more often, no matter of my examinations, plays or sexual activities.

I keep my pubes trimmed to a little under an inch long. That's the longest I can go while using my electric razor and it's attachments. I'm not a super hairy guy, and a full bush is a little overwhelming when I'm naked. I like that look the best for me and it's a little cooler in the summer.

I had to chuckle at the OP because that's pretty much exactly how I am. I usually trim my pubes every 1-2 weeks, but stop about 3-4 weeks before a known exam. For some reason I just get self conscious about the doctor thinking that I'm that vane and spend the effort to actually trim that area. I'm pretty sure no doctor cares either way, but it eases my anxiety just a bit.

I've never been hugely hairy anyways other than down below, but I trim my pubes, and keep my chest, tummy, back and bum clean shaven. My arms and legs are kept au naturale i.e. very hairy.

I've never had a comment from a doctor about my lack of hair.

Interesting note , I had to wear diapers for a few years , Unless shaved It leaked so bad and the smell was atrocious . Had a lady friend that would shave me clean twice a week . After my stroke and Doc changed me over to a catheter I thought hurray I can let it grow back . Adding to that , Yes home care nurses did comment about my lack of hair “south of the border” . With the catheter I have found that being hairy seamed to add to my getting U.T.I.s often and made it harder and more difficult keeping it clean and bacteria free . Been shaving once a week again and keeping it clean with regular wipe downs , No infections for the last two months .
