Doctor's finger in your rectum

As a physician I can state--rectals are just business. Not exciting in the slightest. Sadly the most interesting ones are those which reveal an undiagnosed cancer.

I've always believed that you should enjoy your work! I don't want to start the whole "do doctors get aroused" thread again. But surely there are some doctors who actually enjoy giving a rectal exam to some patients. Somewhere. In my mind I can at least fantasize that my doctor loves to plunge her gloved finger into my awaiting hole. I know deep down that it's just a job to her -- but I can dream. 😃

Maybe they're interesting for a doctor, but believe me it is not reciprocated by patients ... apparently my case was written up in a paper long ago, a distinction I would clearly have been prepared to pass on ... ha ha

But I would hope though that the most rewarding are those when you can announce a general all clear ...

I don't mean to suggest that finding pathology is the end all and be all of practicing medicine. A clean bill of health is always the best end. Finding pathology such as rectal tumors is chilling to say the least. I always wish the best for my patients.

I understand completely. Routine is just routine, it get's to be the same-old, same-old. It's the non-routine that is challenging ...

My Dr. female always has me bent over table for DRE. no problem with the exam better safe than sorry. not unpleasant.

Many rectal exams have been really quick so I didn't feel anything different unless the doctor had a really big finger. The urologist experience can be different if the doctor is trying to get fluid out of the prostate for examination. I have been over the exam table with my underpants down and, as the doctor presses really hard on my prostate, feel like I'm about to pee on the table or floor. It is hard enough to want to move away from his finger.

When I was 11 I had to go to a GI specialist. She ended up putting one finger in my anus.

The only thought going through my mind during a rectal examination is "I wish this could go on and on and on and on...."

"Oh, that feels good," and like this poster said -

As a male, I get absolutely no reaction when my male doctor inserts his finger in my ass to check my prostate. I have never had this procedure from a female doctor so I don't know what would happen but I imagine it would be much the same. Most doctors have a professional demeanor and that attitude usually is conveyed to the patient.

Once I did say kiddingly to my general practitioner that he had fatter fingers than my urologist. We got a mutual chuckle together from that quip.

I have never had a physician check anything that I found exciting. I don't care if it's my eyes, ears, nose, throat, mouth, boobs., chest, back. vagina, rectum, legs or feet. In another thread, someone asked what's your favorite part of an examination. My answer was simply the egress from the office with a favorable report.

I've had them in medical exams. They were not fun. It always makes me think of the "Moon River" scene in the movie "Fletch".

Definitely not fun. Thankfully they were over quickly

I have to admit that I kind of look forward to it. My doctor is very gentle when he does my prostate exam and when he inserts his finger, I become quite aroused from the sensation.

I rarely get one. When I do get one, I love it. But, it just seems too quick to savor the feeling. I wish it would last longer.

As many rectal exams as I’ve had, I still look forward to my doctor pulling gloves out of the box and asking me to lower my pants and shorts. Standing there pants down is part of the fun.

I’ve had ultrasound transducers, enema tubes and other devices inserted rectally and I find it enjoyable. It’s regrettable that colonoscopies are done under sedation.

Not something I look forward to

I'm with ddell2 on this one: I tend to look forward to the exam with a certain dread that my Dr. will find something really bad. so the exit with a good report is the best part of the exam. For you young'uns on the site, the chances of a surprise get better as you reach the senior years. As a matter of fact, the good outcome becomes something of a surprise in itself.

All I can say is that it may not be exciting to him, but it is to those of us who like rectal stimulation and I don't think I'm alone in saying this.

Liquidsky was responding as an examining physician and you are responsing as a perverted patient.

You have different points of view and different expectations in the exam.

This is an oversimplification. I like anal/rectal/prostate stimulation, but there's a world of difference between something put up there for fun by myself or a partner and a medical procedure. I don't get freaked out at the possibility of a DRE anymore, but I'm neutral about them rather than finding them fun. Context is very significant in sexual matters.

Mashie, should I put the ellipsis here ... ?

Very funny Moliere, lol.

I was surprised how much of a turn-on my first rectal exam was - that was the first time I had ever actually had really... mmm-hmmm... good feelings in a real exam. I am not sure if it was because I enjoy anal so much, or if it was owing to my age (44), because it has been so long since I had even been to the doctor’s, or what. But it was approximately 45 seconds of really interesting sensation.

As always, the other thing that crossed my mind during/afterward was “all the built-up fear and anticipation for that?!?”

My wife felt the same way- she said it was indeed kind of a turn on- in getting ready for and then receiving her first rectal from a real doctor...What added to it, I believe, was that the doctor was our new neighbor, and who’s medical visits have certainly become a turn on for me.

Over the years, I would sometimes give her rectals when we played doctor...but she had no knowledge how real or fantasy it was, not actually having gotten one from a real doctor at an exam.

Now, being a male, I am clearly used to regular rectals from any doctor...it just turns out this cool guy moves in next door and becomes not only our neighbor but also our doctor.

He was really thorough when he saw me and when, during my wife’s exam, he was the same. During the last part of the pelvic she heard him say “now you are going to feel a little pressure back here from my finger, and when you do, bear down like you are going to the bathroom,” she was startled/aroused/embarrassed/and ready to play when she got home.

We had drinks with our neighbors the next night and all I could “visually picture” was this good looking man, my age with his finger in my wife’s rectum, while he chatted with her about our collective kids and she became aroused.

Good times, and the Dude Abides!

I always dread the anticipation and knowing what's coming for me. Thinking of how I look becomes a little humiliating but I also like that a little bit. If it's just a rectal exam then the enjoyment comes on as soon as their finger enters.

If I know the finger is also there to lube me up for a pending enema and/or exam the enjoyment comes all the same, but now with additional dread of anticipation for the next thing to come after.

Just something that until it happens I have my fears and concerns. Then in the moment it's mostly enjoyable even though I still try my hardest not to let on what I'm feeling.

@moliere I agree wholeheartedly. In another thread, the question was what's your favorite part of a physician's exam? I didn't have to ponder the question too long. The egress from the office hopefully with a good report.

I get excited when I am going to get a rectal exam but never long enough. Only once did I have a doctor give a longer then normal exam and he even commented he was almost done, I miss that thank God for play docs

Normal DRE's are pretty quick, unless there's a need to try to feel something hard to reach or a prolonged prostate or rectal wall exam. Even those don't last very long. If there something really abnormal, they'll probably move to a sigmoidoscopy or other scope to look or biopsy. The longest one I ever remember was in my twenties when the urologist was massaging my prostate to extrude some prostatic fluid for analysis of prostatits. From over 40 years ago, I'm still guessing it was perhaps a minute or two at most, and he put a great deal if pressure on my prostate to push out the fluid, not painful but not enjoyably comfortable either.

When going for my physical,I always make sure that I am cleaned out before with a quick shower shot enema that morning especially with having blood draw I have been fasting from midnight so am fairly sur when the “ love glove” goes on and the KY jelly appears I am more than ready to stand at the end of the exam table bend over and spread them wide apart so my rosebud is ready for that long thick finger to do its job ! A very enjoyable experience!
