Conjoint Examinations

I have left a few posts regarding the fact that my wife and I are examined conjointly, an opportunity to be a part of each others exam. The exams are done separately, but consecutively. A great opportunity to learn about each others body, the genitalia being the lone area that is unique by gender. A few people have contacted me off-line inquiring about how to find a doctor who will do this type of exam. We got started while scheduling a pre-marital exam, and were informed by the receptionist that the doctor preferred to do a conjoint exam when doing pre-marital exams. The experience was amazing in many ways. We have continued with this doctor ever since. Our doctor is female, and specializes in Internal Medicine.

I would suggest an Internist, as they are more likely to examine both genders. Call and ask if you can be examined conjointly. They should have no reason to refuse. It is a great experience for any couple, and worth finding the right physician.

And what exactly is a pre-marital exam?

When my wife and I got married ages ago, no exam was required -- just a few blood tests for her.

Pre-marital is an elective exam done primarily to insure that there are no major issues regarding the respective genitalia, and reproduction.

Way back when they were required, the physical exam and blood tests were to make sure there were no communicable diseases, especially STD's--namely syphilis and gonhorrhea.
