> [@Cat\_Whisperer](#): > > I heard a story about an actor who said this to an actress he was about to do a love scene with - “Something may or may not happen while we’re shooting the scene, and either way, I apologize in advance.” I’m sure all female doctors and nurses are familiar with the inclinations of the male anatomy. 🙂 Actresss Rene Russo told a story in an interview about the first love scene she ever shot – her co-star told her, “If I do, I’m sorry. If I don’t… I’m sorry.” 😃 ---

If a guy were to get an erection during a genital exam I would ignore it and just complete the exam. However if a patient presents with the complaint of penile pain and already has an erection when I go to start the exam and tries to push my hands into specific positions I will have security escort them out. Aside from the above scenario the only patients I’ve examined who had an erection were there for priapism. But I don’t do primary care. If I’m doing a genital exam it’s because the patient has pain, discharge or some other genital problem. Which I would imagine makes one less likely to become aroused. ---

> [@dracoi](#): > > I’m curious how often doctors observe a “reaction” in male patients during the exam. Are there any statistics on it? Or can any of our medical professionals comment on what they’ve seen? This is secondhand, but one year my family doctor was doing physical exams of high school students going out for varsity sports. She was surprised at the way most of the guys got hard-ons, which from her tone of voice she clearly found quite annoying more than anything else. I reminded her that boys in that age range got hard-ons from anything from a light breeze to a stray thought, and that a physical exam administered by an attractive woman (which she was and is) was well above that level; of _course_ most of them were going to get hard. ---
