- NEW!
I'm waiting for a new way to do this exam. It is invasive, messy and uncomfortable.
The last time I had one, when I walked into the examination room I told my physician, "I'm sure not looking forward to this!" He replied, "If you walked in here telling me you were looking forward to it, I'd probably send you to another doctor!" LOL

I just love how all you guys are such wimps about an examination. We have doctors and nurses poking fingers in all our orifices too. They look up with torches. they use cold metal and plastic speculums and you are wimping about a finger once a year. PMSL.

prostrate? You mean the doctor made you lie down to be checked? Or do you mean prostate? LOL

Well, I won't have to do it for another 10 years or so, but when the time comes, I'll make sure to ask the doc to use lots of lubrication jelly and warm his finger up first! And he better not get the KY jelly mixed up with the Icy Hot. That wouldn't be pleasant.

I have had that examination several times. I was told that you only have to worry about it if.....at the same time you are feeling the finger inside of you, you are also feeling the Doctor's HANDS NOT ONLY ONE HAND on you back.....

About the best you can do is have a female physician with a smaller finger. It is surreal how the doctor carries on a conversation, like, "That's your prostrate. Did you know that?" while you're grimacing, gritting your teeth, and replying from deep in your throat "all I feel is a fingerrrrrrrrr in my ass".
Worse yet, when it comes out it feels like it's still in there, only worse.
I find it difficult to believe that people actually learn to LIKE getting things shoved there.

Find a doctor with small hands like I did.

Thankfully its not something that a doctor will routinely do here in the UK unless you have a specific medical problem that indicates that the prostate is involved so I have never had this particular examination performed. My dad is a doctor and he was telling me that he had to do one the other day on a young man and the guy ejaculated which was all rather embarrassing. So I guess that it is something that some guys rather like.

That's not really so bad.
What is really bad is if they have to cut your prostate out then sew your butthole shut by mistake.
