asks that we are in each others exams so she can ask us questions about each others body. "Is this mole new? Has this spot always been there?" She's said ... "I wish all my married or couple patients were as open as you both are. You'd be surprised how little couples know about each other."I have never even heard of a couples exam. I've been coupled before though, and I think it's a fantastic idea.In my daily living, I don't normally wear underwear. But I make it a point to wear boxers for a doctor visit. Mainly for the benefit of the nurse and other staff. I honestly believe they'd freak out at the site of a naked body. Same at our local hospital here. It's just beyond bizarre. Anyhow, the boxers stay on through the entire office exam until right at the end for the hernia and prostate check. I stand up and doc snatches the boxers down only far enough to see what he's doing. Then I snatch them back up and start getting dressed as he dashes out the door. Accepting simple nudity woulddefinitelymake things far simpler in that office but.... that's just the way it works around there.

How can a Doctor exam what is covered?

I guess it depends on the doctor and severity of your appointment. I was at doctors today and got fast response. I went a few months back and complained of same problem but this time it was worse. I thought I had a hernia and the doctor at first appointment had a 2 second look and gave me a cream, she was female and maybe she didint want to make me feel uncomfortable!! but on the result of that she had sent me on 3 weekly blood counts to determine the problem, this week it was much worse the lump had grew and got much larger. The doctor today actually made me drop my trousers and had a feel around and determined it probably isnt a hernia which puts my mind at ease no doubt!! It turns out I may have an infection which is causing this and I have been put on mediction which will hopefully put my blood count right and sort the problem out!!! I guess what Im trying to say is that if the first doctor did the same and made me drop my trousers and have a proper check I may have been in a better situation right now

The only exam I have ever had naked was done by my dermatologist, which is absolute necessary. The general practitioner just asks my to drop trousers for hernia and prostate exams.

I'm going to a dermatologist tomorrow and was asked when making the appointment what it was I needed. I said just a check up since it's been about 3 years since I've been to a skin doctor for a check up. The receptionist then asked "full body" and I said yes.
While living overseas the trip to the dermatologist was get completely naked and lay on the table - much like a massage - face up then face down. The doctor there had a magnify glass thingy with a bright light and he looked all over, including cock and balls. Is it the same in the USA? I hope so! :)

My GP spends more time on his computer than he does checking me out. This is starting to annoy me. I don't mind being naked or poked and prodded in the doctor's office; isn't that what is supposed to happen. He does the prostate check once a year, but, he seems to hate it (he's rough and hurried unlike the MD I had before who was just matter of fact about it) and asks if I think we need to do it. Had the dermatologist do the full body search with my boxers on and never bothered to look under them. How do you find a doc that is willing to have you undressed and really look?

In the San Bernardino, California area I visit a female Dermatologist and afemale Primary Care
Physician . Both conduct complete physicals and body check while I
am nude. Do not understand how a Doctor can examine anyone if they
are wearing clothes.

For my yearly exams the nurse has me strip down to undershorts and the doc has me pull them down for testicular exam as well as prostate exam. Several years ago I had a female doc and it was the same.
My dacs care far more about my Cholesterol level and Blood Pressure than anything else.
