Gown and Panties

My girlfriend recently went in for her annual pelvic. When she returned from the experience she said that this time was different in that the nurse instructed her to undress, put on the exam gown, but leave her panties on. This was a first. In the past, she was instructed to remove everything.

When she asked about the change, her doc told her that several patients had begun requesting to keep their panties on as long as possible (modesty, embarassment, etc.).

With this change in procedure, she is now more self-conscious as she now has to decide which panties (style, color, etc.) she should wear.

Any suggestions?

If it were me. I would just take mine off anyway. It should be her choice.

I don't mind taking my off right away. Its easier to take them off while taking every thing else off rather that trying to take them off while lying down or having the dr. or nurse take them off.

I think that i would like to keep my panties on as long as i can it would help laying there with nothing on but the gown then take them off when the doctor comes in

IF you want to leave them on until the last minute I think its easiest to stick with the "white cotton" ones from Hanes or Fruit of the Loom.

My nurse has me remove them from the start rather than having me remove them when I either lying on my stomach for my temp to be taken or just before the pelvic.

I always dress for convenience on Dr visits. No hose and loose fitting clothes that are easy to remove. I remove all and just wear the gown. Once in a while I might have to hold the back closed when going to another room but so what. In the end, it all comes off anyway.

I dont mind taking of my panties at the start. but if they said 2 keep my panties on i would keep them on with no problem.

If you were able to leave youir panties on for a while would you allow the Dr. to pull them off for you?

I would remove my panties anyway. It saves time.

Now, if this were a play exam I would keep them on and hope the doctor would remove them... 😉

I would remove them with the rest of my clothes and just wear the gown i mean its easier then when your on the exam table and it saves a lot of time!

I would love it if my doc took my panties off ... or even better .. if the nurse took them off while the doc watched ...

I wear no gown. Must undress the part which get a exam. naked from waist down or upper. So i do this in a small cabin. Then i must walk half nude to the exam chair. i try to get dressed in a long t-shirt if i go to my exam. So i can pull it down more and cover my piblic area.

I would think it would be even more embarrassing to have to remove your underwear infront of someone.

I asked my wife about this and she said with her doctor (also female) she has the patient completely undress and does not use gowns, just naked. I told her we needed to talk more about that later.

A friend went recently to her gynaecologist for a pre-op examination. She went straight from work and was told to go in to the side room and remove her trousers ( which she has to wear for work) and panties. Normally there was a modesty towel but there wasn't this day. She got on the bed. The chaperone nurse then came in and saw the predicament and grabbed an A4 envelope and put in on her. The Consultant then came in and my friend said to him I don't think we need this. She said it was better to be naked from the waist down than have an envelope there. Particularly as he had already examined her many time and performed two operations before. PC gone mad.

I would take mine off straight away, i love the feeling of only been covered by the little blanket waiting for your exam. unless the doctor was to remove my panties x

I have always taken everything off and worn a gown, except in the EU. I do not see the reason for keeping your panties on, they are going to come off anyway, and its not like he hasn't seen it before.

😮 My partner dresses very casually when she goes for her pap. She is seen by a male doc who does not have a nurse in the room during the exam. She always takes all her clothes off and hangs them on the door. She likes to retain her socks so her feet remain warm in the stirrups. Her doc has her put on a small exam vest which is open in the back. She puts a square paper towel on her lap. She has brought her exam garments home and has shown me how completely she is exposed during the very complete exam.

If the panties have to come off, I think they should just come off at the beginning of the exam. If you leave them on, you are just delaying what is going to happen anyway. As long as you get a gown, you don't need the panties at a gyn exam.

This is worse. The doc knows your taste in underwear. And you have to consider really well the style etc. Not too sexy but not too plain erc. and who takes it off in stirrups? Much much more embarrassing if the doc does it and worse if the nurse does it

In a play exam I would love for my doc to slip them off of me, but I always remove them before a real exam.

Mmm it doesn't make any difference. Finally you have to remove them all.

I would just not wear any lol

No need to decide which color/style. In that professional environment no one is going to notice or care. Not to mention she could just take em off to begin with as she has in the past, if she had no problem with it then the new procedure need not apply to her anyway.

When my gf gos to the gyno for her annual exam, she wear no gown. She is naked all the time, the doctor is present when she undress and there is no nurse. This is the regular procedure with each girls and woman, not just with my girlfriend. We are in Italy. We are both nudist and my gf doesn't care, but some girls are very embarassed.

We dont have exam gowns over here anyway so we dont use them also....actually u ust undress the part that is needed to get examined

My wife and I are examined conjointly, so I am in the examination room. A medical assistant will instruct her to disrobe completely, and donate a urine specimen. When the assistant returns she takes my wife's vitals, and has her sit on the exam table till the doctor comes in. The breast and pelvic exams are done nude. So the dated question at hand, is moot in our case.

I love being in just my panties for an exam, and hate wearing panties if they make me wear a gown. I have taken my panties off, when instructed to leave them on , and put on a gown. so much better when in just my panties. and if at the gynecologist, I just might be totally naked next time. just for fun.

I think it would be great if you ladies got to take your panties down in front of the doctor while he is looking at your vagina. It would give you the same experience as us men having to expose our genitals to the doctor while he watches.
