Doctor noting erection

I had a physical this week and it was the set up where a doctor does the exam and the nurse takes notes. When it got to the genital part, I sprung a boner and the doctor quite clearly said to the nurse when he was examining my penis something like "uncircumcised and erect". Anyone else experienced a doctor noting their erection? And anyone any idea why this is necessary?

There are doctors who confront a physical exam as a head-to-toe checking of body parts and systems, i.e. is this working, can the patient touch his nose with his eyes closed? At the same time, the doctor is noting his findings, i.e. heart rate X/Y (rapid), weight 123. This creates a baseline and a reference file about the patient, so were you to comment next year that you were having problems obtaining an erection, it was in the notes that this problem originated after last year's physical, narrowing cause.

Was the nurse sitting in such a way that she could see for herself that you were erect?

Yeah she was. She was stood just behind the doctor.

And that explanation makes sense...anyone else know whether they've had erections noted?

I've never had an erection when being examined.

I've never had a doctor mention it before (and certainly not due to a lack of it happening). I've always been curious to get a look at my file, though, to see what notes might have been included. I probably wouldn't be able to read the doctor's handwriting anyway, though!

When I was 13 or 14 I had my first physical exam.

I had to strip completely from the very beginning.

As soon as i dropped my boxers I already had a boner. The doc said that it is very normal for boys my age to get an erection and it shows her that I'm healthy.

This was the only time a doctor made a command about me getting an erection

Fortunately never had an erection during a Doctors exam, had one before and always after though!

I had a few over the years and a couple ended up in ejaculation. All with the same real doctor and he would note it in my file andmake a comment that everything is working which is what I would expect. I have to say that even being embarrassed, I always looked forward to his exams.

I hope all you guys who ejaculate during a real exam can last long enough to show your partners a good time when you have sex, but it doesn't sound like you do. If anything, premature ejaculation is a problem for which you should be evaluated.

Rectal, scrotal and penis exams don't take all that long unless you are being examined and evaluated for a known problem, and even they don't take very long.

Ejaculating after a brief amount of stimulation doesn't sound "alright" to me or to most women.

I´d have to agree with you in principle too ... as a card carrying male I too would think a brief stimulation shouldn´t really result in ejaculation ...

But, just to play the devil´s advocate and ensure that everyone gets the fair defense they are entitled too, maybe some males are already into the stimulation stage as soon as they enter a doctor´s office. It may be mental arousal, but I think that can be pretty strong in some cases. Add in an anxiety factor, especially if young and inexperienced sexually and the conditions are there for a quick ejaculation ...

Of course, it shouldn´t happen, but since many do describe it happening it must be something that does occur ...

I had a erection at a exam at 12 or so. Dont recall doc or mom commenting. When I got my file years later that exam notes said ""Erect(!!) Normal and circ."" Not sure why he needed 2 exclamations!

In reference to #12 ... I picked up my files many years ago when my doctor was retiring. Interesting enough, I peered through them and came upon the notes referencing my initial complete physical exam when I was 35 (I am 52 years old now). I was a little surprised to see among the notations ... "large circumcised penis and body hair distributed evenly." From that moment on my medical fetish went up a notch! For some odd reason, I never presented this file to my new doctor. I simply decided to let him make his own findings and notations referencing what was noted.

I have never had an erection while being examined during real life situations.

Interesting topic. Now it's got me wondering: During that exam I had when I was fifteen, when I was erect in my shorts during the belly exam and then a few minutes later when I had two doctors checking my femoral arteries, I wonder if the regular doctor wrote something in his notes along the lines of "Patient developed erection in his underpants during abdominal examination and check for bruits." I doubt it of course, but it's an intriguing, even sexy idea!

I work admin at a Doctors office and have never seen a doctor make any note about an erection. Sounds fun tho 😉

When I was 18 I went for a pre employment physical. The nurse had me strip to my boxers and wait for the Dr. He went through a basic physical exam. He palpated my abdominal and groin area then to me stand and drop my shorts. As he was examine my penis and testicles, I began to become erect and by the time he was done I had a full hard on which was quiet embarrassing. He told me not to worry, that it happens to a lot of men and is a sign that I am sexually healthy. Over the years I would periodically get erect during the exam and always think ack in him telling me it is perfectly natural

I ad a physial the other day and a student dr was with my normal dr. When she did the exam for a hernia when her finger touched me i got a real hard on and i loved it when she did the anal exam it got even harder but she never said any thing but i would love to knoe what she thought at that moment

Dr Bob

Never got fully erect only semi-hard at times.

As a patient, I've never had a doctor or nurse practitioner say anything about my being erect (and it has happened many times).

As a doctor, the only time I said anything was one of the first times I had a patient become erect during a physical. I said what our textbook said to say, which was, "Don't worry about having an erection. It is a normal response during a physical." I felt saw awkward saying it, I never said anything again.

I did have another doctor i was working with once write down that a patient was erect, but it was because he was worried that he had a priapism.

I guess thinking about that, I do talk about erections and record them in the medical record when patients come in with priapisms. It is a pretty common problem (I probably see one or two a year).

Thinking about it some more, I also do occasionally (about once every two or three years) see a patient with a fractured penis. Penises don't fracture unless they were erect when it happened, so I ask the patient about that.

Nope never gotten an erection during a real doctor visit.

When I was younger, i would always get hard, but the dr just pretended nothing happened.

I can´t remember ever havin an erection during medical exams.

I had a female doctor become annoyed because I got an erection right after pulling my underwear down. She said “at least we know it’s working”. I felt my face turn bright red.

Just watched My Friend Dahmer, and there is a scene where he visits a doctor he has a thing for. Guess what? Dahmer gets a boner. The doctor gets mad and ends the exam immediately.

59:20 is where that scene is.

I've never had an erection during a physical. But I have leaked pre-cum at doctor's appointments, therapy sessions, and massages. Perhaps I had a softy, but I wouldn't have touched myself to check.

I love this scene! I wish the doctor was more understanding of the erection rather than getting annoyed.
