How to get a rectal/prostate exam from a REAL doctor?

Well, I am 35 and had some blood on the tissue. I went to see my femail doctor and she said she would refer me to a specialist... I am thinking whether she was embarrased or simply didn't want to exam a male patient.

How can I ask for a rectal exam?

This is very simple to get done. You go to the clinician and say "Doctor, I have had several relatives that experienced colo-rectal cancer. Could I be at risk with this bleeding" A Hem-occult packet will be out of the packet quicker than sour milk from the frig.

And remember to say please. You'll catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

Okay, so I'm a 25 year old male and have never had anything in my bottom before, but have thought about what it might feel like for some time now. I just recently had my yearly physical, but didn't want to come right out and ask for a rectal exam, mostly because i had no idea what to say if my doctor asked me why i wanted one. ( i figured just wanting to have the experience wouldn't be a good enough answer) Now i don't want to waste my doctor's time, but i only feel comfortable having a trained doc poking around my backside, at least for the first time. So if i were to call up my doctor, are there any good ways to go about asking for a rectal exam? or any good excuses as to why i want a rectal exam?

I am a Playdoctor and when I have examined my young Male Patients, a few of the straight guys have said they would like a rectal examination as their girlfriend had tried in foreplay to stimulate their prostate gland and had pushed too hard/too long fingernails and that it felt a bit uncomfortable up there.

Still perhaps a very embarrassing thing to ask but at least it is perfectly feasable and shouldn't be considered by either patient or Doctor as being unusual.

Alternatively, say that you were a bit constipated a day or so before and think you strained a bit too hard and still feel uncomfortable.

I think they normally start at age 40, but they're recommended much earlier where there's a strong family history of prostate cancer.

Some womens are BBW, I am a BPM, Big Prostate Man, that "thing"(prostate) changed in size suddenly, without warning, without "disease", as results in my blood analysis some alarming values like a prostate cancer, BUT no sign of cancer ...

Guys you may dream and imagines all what was done to found what happened to me. So rectal control of my prostate is really common and usual for me, and have nothing erotic or sexual, realize the fear to have a serious problem there down, and the urologist don't found what I have ...

This man knows all about my and our sexual life, anal fantasies and addictions, so I asked him once to let me feel really my prostate and how to reach it, so I will explain this to Mme Arthur, W!O!O!O!A!U!W!W!W!W! in some seconds I was close to leak, with I swear no one erotic feeling or thought!

Now after +/- 5 years for the first time we were going together Mme Arthur and me to the urologisteach one for the "annual" control, I talked about prostate massage, so Mme Arthur will learn from him how to do, explaing all details, well she can't do it like him, and you may be assured, with her it is pure erotism-sexual fantasy and with this doctor specialized in urology it is only medical, the feel was so strong and huge that I do lost all feelings from my anus, and feels only the "cramp close to leak" from my prostate. I would like to understand to enjoy and to learn to you how to do.

Sometimes can be earlier

A blood analysis is not to expensive, when you are doing one for any reason, you can ask to check at the same time the values of the "PSA" there are three value the "free PSA" , a "forgot the name PSA" and the "average PSA" there is a health statistic about this values, if your results are too high, check them 3 or 6 monthes later, to be sure the values are not increasing !

No sex , No Anal Fantasies , No constipation , 5 days before going to give your blood for analysis, be aware I am Not joking , this actions will press against your prostate and this little thing will secretes more PSA's and the fiability of the results of your blood exam for the "PSA's" will be erroneous !!!

Keep in mind that the rectal exam is not done in isolation. If the doctor is screening for prostate cancer, he/she will order a PSA blood test too. (Which insurance may reject payment on if you're too young.) If there is a concern with stools, you'll get a referral to a gastroenterologist and probably an imaging exam. And so forth.

Three words: Free Prostate Screening!

Do a little searching, find a free PSA/DRE screening in your area. When they tell you that you're too young, just tell them you have a family history of prostate cancer. They won't refuse you.

I have had quitea few of these exams. If you want your doctor to do one just say that you noticed blood on the tp when you went to he bathroom. also stool is dark/tarry looking and blood streaks sometimes. this sould get what you want. very embarassing tho! -Lindaa

Tell your physician you noticed some blood streaks on the toilet paper and family history of prostate issues will surely result in you getting that prostate exam

I think you should just make an appointment with me. I'll get it all checked out for you. :-)

If you feel that you only want a real doctor to do this (as opposed to a play doctor) I would think the only thing you can do is to pay for some form of screening which specifically states that the examination you want is included as standard; that way everything is above board. What you should certainly not do is pretend that you have experienced symptoms when that is not true. Not only would such action be fraudulent (in the legal sense, as well as any in any other) it would, in my opinion, be as reprehensible as a doctor subjecting you to a procedure that he or she knew was unnecessary simply in order to satisfy some craving they had.

This way: Go to a clinic..one of those sexual health clinics where they only deal with this kind of stuff. Tell them that you have tried anal sex quite a few times and there is something wrong..and just want to make sure everything is ok. Rectal exams can be very uncomfortable..you might feel quite the same way if you get one that hurts.I have had a few that really hurt.

I agree with other posters in that you should not go to a doctor with made up symptons in order to get an exam for your pleasure. Regarding the prostate check, have you thought about going to a massage parlor. Some of them do a prostate massage. There are parlors in my area that do them, and they feel great if done properly. You can also look up prostate massage on the internet. There are websites explaining how to have a partner do it or you can do it yourself. Good luck

At my annual physical I simply ask. I tell my doctor I'm very concerned about cancer (which I am) and that I'd like my prostate and testicles examined. My request had always been honored. I started asking in my mid 20's.

I don't think that you ask. If the doctor is not thorough, then get another doctor. Internists are more thorough than family doctors.

I agree with miked, gradually coming to the opinion that while other practitioners may be fine for preventative care, internal medicine doctors are the ones more likely to focus deeper, internally.

I simply asked my primary care physician at the time for cancer screens. He gave me a PSA test but didn't do a DRE because he said the PSA was better. (This is not true) After that I booked an appointment with a urologist who gave my a thorough genital exam and DRE. At your age, manage health care insurance isn't going to want to pay for a prostate exam unless you have a family history of prostate cancer.

It is not a big deal.

A little blood on a tissue is usually caused by a rectal firrure which is a slight tear. I have had this problem for years. unless it gets really bad it is litle more than slight bother
