Do you keep yourself shaved when you visit the doctor?
Return to DiscussionsI have no issue being shaved in front of other nudists because I fit right in. But with doctors, I'm a little self conscious, so I always grow my pubic hair back when I'm getting my annual checkup to the doctor. I always hate that because that means I have to go through 2-3 of hair growth, which I hate.
I wish I could just stay shaved when going to the doctor but I'm afraid he might react and wonder why I don't have pubic hair.
So what do you all do? Do you keep yourself shaved and let your doctor see it? If so, do they ever react or ask questions?
Reason one: for teaching purposes - probably the case for my hallway exposure.
This has also happened to me a few times. Once there was a female intern/student and she watched from across the room until the doctor wanted to look at my genitals. Then she came forward to make sure she did not miss the important part of the exam.
I have been smooth for many years, decades even. I do not grow it back to visit the doc. I have never had a double take or a comment or even a question. once after a motorcycle accident I was being bed bathed. the nurses pulled back the sheets and got my standard backless gown off and said "Oh good, that will make things easy". I was sponged and towled off then helped into the new gown and off they went to the next victim.
It was of no real interest to any of the medical profession, I used to have a Bupa (Private medical) every year, usual testicle check and neither male nor female made any comment of gave it any regard at all.
So relax, its no different to shaving your chin, its a choice to look a certain way and they have seen it all.

I have been shaved for many years and never thought about growing back hairs even when going to the doctors, in fact having recently had surgery it saved the nurse having to shave my leg, never had a comment about me being shaved
