RE:Did you tell the Dermatotogist you're a nudist?

I have 2, and I have told them both but without tan lines it was pretty self evident. The guy has me strip and just like wear the gown. He and his female assistant do the normal exam, then when she leaves, he had me drop the gown and does the rest.

The female doc has me strip to the boxers, no gown and does the exam. Then she has me drop the boxers and does a very through exam of the privates.

I have gone thru several docs until I have found those who will do something more than just a cursory exam.

The overall tan gives it away. Our derm doc grew up in France, so she probably thought nothing of it. Docs see everything, so they are never surprised.

Hi CTSunSailor, Thanks for adding to the discussion. I'm curious to why you have two dermatologists. Can you share your thoughts?

Yes, both my PC and my Dermatologist knows that I'm a nudists and neither one cares. As a matter of fact when I told my dermatologist that I was a nudists she was very interested in that fact and started asking questions about local groups and where I liked to go and if I ever go to resorts. That was my first visit to her and hopefully we will discuss it more on my next one.

I always remind my dermatologist that I get sun in places most people don't.I do wear a swim brief that can pass for underwear although I am otherwise a full time freeballer.He pulls the "underwear" down one area at a time and takes a quick look.

I went to the dermatologist for my 6 month exam today. I put black swim briefs in my cargo shorts pocket and when I took my clothes off in the examination room, I slipped them on. When the doctor examined me, I reminded him that I swam and sunned nude so he knew that he should check everything. We talked about reason why some people swim and sun nude and other don't. That lead me to comment that some people don't wear underwear and how did that work since his staff always tells me to leave my underwear on. He replied that he has staff say that because he believes that is what most patients prefer but some patients are comfortable being nude for the exam and he has no problem with that. Now I know that I don't have to bring the swim brief next time. I should have asked sooner!

Will have to at my next visit in February....

Been to the same skin specialist for a decade or more and last year had the BCC news - on my forehead and hiding in a childhood scar. Like you also had it removed MOHS procedure as it is directly over my optic nerve.

Interesting to note though, you don't need to literally expose your skin to the sun to get BCC or melanoma. Non-nudists are recorded as having occurrences in places where they don't get sun exposure too. In fact have had one removed from between my toes....!

True, but exposure to the sun increases the risk.

This is the reason I asked my dermatologist to check my entire body including genitals. I had already had one BCC and read changes of getting a second in high. So telling my dermatologist I was a nudist delivered the message I was comfortable being nude while she examined my skin.

I don't have my next appointment till April.

NO GREAT SECRET

As far as my health is concerned, I tell everything that might be relavant to my health. Being clear about me being a nudist, is important and so is my sexual history if i'm in need of some advice about my body or how it works. i've asked for a regular prostate examination, and other sorts of checks I find out to be available. It is also important to ask what signs there might be if I do develope a prostate problem. Same with testicle cancers and everything else that can go wrong. I have had skin cancer and a major face operation to deal with it. When I'm with a nude partner, we'll inspect eachother for these things and if we find anything not looking good, we'll go and see a doctor and get it checked out. it isn't rocket s eience and simple common sense.
