Nope, Never had that one Wendy, sorry. Why would they do that anyway?
-
No, I don't. It does sound kind of weird to do that, though. It's not like we have a prostate to check!
-
No, and I would be worried because in the UK gynaecology is a completely separate medical department to the one who deals in colo-rectal ones. What a horrible thought!

no, that's for men to check ther prostate. i would be worried if someone did that to me.

My gyn has always done a rectovaginal exam (finger in vagina and a finger in rectum) perfectly normal but a bit uncomfortable. The dr then just feels around while pressing on the abdomen as for the bimannual exam. It is an exam that checks ovaries and uterus from a different position as compared to the bimannual exam.

yes, but why

He always does. He checks my breasts, vagina and other reproductive organs and he finishes it off with a digital rectal exam where he inserts one finger into my rectum for a few seconds. For me it's the most embarrassing part of the pelvic, but it's over before I know it.
