Sexual Wellness

 

Morning

"I've been following your blog for quite a while now. I'm a General Practitioner PCP and I'm met with shock and embarrassment when I ask new male patients questions about their sexual wellness (erection and ejaculation issues), or tell them to take off their clothes for a physical exam (testicular and prostate). All my questions and exams are tailored to their life stage. I've asked my colleagues and only a few do this. Women get (or should) annual pap smears and vaginal inspections and mammograms. Why is it so odd to do a complete workup on men? My question for your readers is does your doctor ask those questions or do those exams during an annual physical?"





Thanks for reading --- I hope you'll correct me if I ever hand out wrong information. I think you're doing the right thing. Too many guys are afraid to even broach those subjects with their doctors. Actually, they're afraid of popping a boner in front of you. That may seen silly to you as a doctor, but it's most likely the truth. By initiating the conversation, you are doing them a great service.


Only one doctor used to routinely ask about my erections and ejaculations, and would check my balls and prostate. Not anymore. I guess they figure I'm too old, or I'd be telling them if there were issues.



Readers, does your doctor check on your "sexual wellness?"

Content Warnings

 

Morning

Yesterday's post was flagged by Blogger and "put behind a sensitive content warning because it goes against Community Guidelines." If you were unable to access the post, that's why. Ridiculous when the entire blog is behind the Sensitive Content Warning. ZFuckerberg's AI is pretty bad if it can't figure that out. I thought they were done with all that censorship stuff. 😉🤣

Me, checking....

Yep, that's what I thought.
