Was/Is anyone allowed to keep their t-shirt on during an exam?

I hope this topic hasn't come up before, as i did a search and didn't see anything too similar. I always thought women would either be examined in bra and panties or totally naked with a gown on. In talking with a woman i found there is a third way i had never really thought about.

When she was younger (going to the pediatrician) She was allowed to keep her t-shirt and panties on. The doctor just lifted the t-shirt to steth her. The woman liked this approach as later when she started wearing a bra, she was just asked to take the bra off but leave the t-shirt on. While the doctor still lifted the shirt to steth her, and now check her breast development, she said she felt a lot less exposed being able to keep her t-shirt on for most of the exam. Has anyone had an experience like this?

I recall female patients with developed breasts being weighed at the pediatrician wearing a tee shirt, sans bra, and underwear. I don't believe that they were allowed to keep the shirt on after returning to the exam room. The scale was located near the nurses' station clearly visible to both staff and patients.

At some of my hospital visits as a teenager, I was instructed by the nurse to undress to my underpants and vest. Problem was, not many teenagers in the mid-late 1990s still wore vests - I certainly didn't, preferring a t-shirt under my school shirt when it was sufficiently cold to warrant it.

Faced with this scenario, and a refusal to remove my t-shirt, the nurse conceded that I could keep it on in lieu of a vest. I subsequently made sure I always wore a t-shirt under my shirt for such appointments, even in the height of summer!

When I was younger I had to take my clothes off but was aloud to keep my underwear on. Now when I go to the doctors he allows me to keep my clothes on he just lifts up my shirt to listen to my lungs and heart. My Dr really believes in modesty, the only time I had to pull my pants down was when I had a boil on my butt. I pulled my pants down to show him where it was so he could lance it, which really hurt. It was only in the hospital that I was told to take everything off and put a gown on so the Dr could examine me. That and the gyno also.

Nope. Even when I was a little kid and wore one piece underwear, it was unbuttoned and pulled down to my waiste.

I have always been undressed down to my underwear for my exams. This was true growing up and even now seeing my internist.

Up until I was 6 I was naked the whole time during my exam because that that point I didnt care who I was nude but after that till I was 8 I was half in undies half fully nude during my exam.
