To be young again

When we're growing up, of course, we do what our parents tell us to do, and go where they say go - or at least I did. So I always had a male pediatrician.

There are days,however, when I'd love to be able to be 10 - 14 again, and pick my own female pediatrician. I wish there were some way today to experience that type of exam at my age, along with the embarrasment, but alas there's not.

I would change quite a few things growing up, like having a nurse there with the doctor during my exams. It would make growing up a little easier.

I suppose you could try to relive that experience in a play doc situation. You could both pretend that you're actually much younger and the doc is a pediatrician. She could perform the kind of embarrassing examinations that you experienced as a kid. You could even wear the kind of underwear that you wore as a kid. Just a thought.

Though it is kind of under-represented on this part of the site, but personally I like the idea of age-play in the medical scenarios. Too bad...doesn't seem like too many people are into it on this site, but it's not an abnormal thing. Wish more people might be open to the idea, but I understand why some people are hesitant

I agree with flyfisher -- Medical roleplaying is a great way to go back and relive some of those imperfect moments of growing up in a way that bends the experience in more acceptable directions. I love the idea of setting up a childhood visit to the pediatrician, and squarely facing my fears -- which often had to do with his large hypodermics of penicillin taken for frequent strep throat and earaches. As an adult I can handle the needles, and understand the need for taking them -- as I never would have been able to as a child. It is a way of making peace with what happened, and reliving a traumatic experience now as something sensible and pleasurable. Great post -- and thanks for taking us back, play docs!

I think it's an interesting idea - I just don't know if I have enough imagination...

To make it believable (to yourself), you'd have to setup an exam scenario that is distinctly adolescent - something that you wouldn't normally experience as an adult. My suggestion (and all-time favorite real-life exam) would be a sports physical. That's something that an adult doesn't normally have - unless you're a professional athlete. Why not pretend that you're going to the pediatrician for an exam to play sports. Wear some sports-related clothing to the exam (T-shirt, athletic shorts, jockstrap) and see where things go.

Just an idea - I don't know if it would work.

A sports physical is an excellent idea and great way to get the age theme going. Still love remembering those when I was young and I am sure we all wish for that time machine to go back. I bet everyone has a long list of what they would go back to redo or change. The teen years is such a great time with the body changing and you not knowing what to expect especially at the doctors. It is a shame now with the fear or lawsuits doctors are afraid to really do a full exam so this generation is missing out. For me nothing will top that first time a latex covered hand grabbed me down below. Fighting to prevent the natural reaction while the exam took place.

Those days of going to the pediatrician from ages 11 to 18 were embarrassing beyond belief. I wish I could duplicate those experiences.

I was sick and sometimes had monthly doctor visits between the ages of about 10 and 14. I was always way too embarrassed to enjoy it since some of the medicine I was taking made me really overweight, but I'd like to either go back to that time and weigh a little less or just not be so worried about my weight, since I kind of like the idea of the added embarrassment now.

Sometimes I fantasize about being a young teenager who's afraid to go to the doctor because of my weight, and my parents are determined to have me broken of my fear, so they drag me to a doctor who examines me nude and makes mean comments the whole time. But it's not something I'd enjoy in real life, even though I have learned to enjoy my actual doctor visits these days.

My parents also refused a lot of tests and exams that I wish they would've let me have. One doctor wanted me to have a barium enema and a combination vaginal and abdominal ultrasound, but my parents wouldn't let them go ahead with it. Sometimes fun things did happen when my parents weren't in the exam room, though...once, I had a full body x-ray completely nude!

I think the school physical is a great idea.

I would love to go hack and have my school medicals again.

Me too - my childhood and teen "to thrill with excitement" condition, before and during exams, was something great!

DrBob,

I need to find a lovely lady playdoc like that!

If i was young again (like starting from 16) i would have been less emarassed about telling GFs about medplay and maybe introduced some of them to it along the way

My visits to the pediatrician were procedurally pretty simple when compared to my visits to the gynecologist now. But I'd love to be revisit those childhood exams, and experience the dread and shame as if for the first time. Because they're under the surface most of the time, but just recalling those doctor's visits brings the feelings out all over again.

Puberty was difficult for me and I wish I had a male doc regularly monitoring my breasts and private parts. Losing my vaginal and rectal virginity to a doc's gentle finger wouldn't be to bad as part of a thorough treatment scheme 😄

How about the age difference the other way? A few years ago I was in Johns Hopkins for a cardiac cath and it seems that at every teaching hospital I go to, the doctor does a rectal exam on entry to the facility. The last two times I entered JHU the doctors assigned to me were females who looked like teens and, as usual, plumbed my anus pretty well, what a thrill.

Along with a lot of others it I think it would be great to go back and relive the school medical examinations especially with a doctor who insisted that you strip right off from the start. It was embarrassing at the time but really erotic to remember.

"exam doc"

in a former message in this discussion, you have said this :

"Those days of going to the pediatrician from ages 11 to 18 were embarrassing beyond belief. I wish I could duplicate those experiences".

what was so much embarrassing when you went to the pediatrician ? why you said "beyond belief' ?

was it different of other relations of teenagers because your doctor was more strict about nudity and so on or because your mother was present or any other reason ?
