About 4 weeks ago I had my first prostate exam. There won't be a second. I kept on waiting to feel two hands on my shoulders. From the time he said, "this won't take but a few seconds," to a couple of days later, I had discomfort. Going to the bathroom (BM) was exreemly painful including staining of blood. It gave me a different prospective to anal for a woman (or guy for that matter) Originally Posted by trubritYou might need to find another Doc, no way should a PE leave you in pain. The only thing you should feel is pressure and maybe the urge to pee. If he pushes on it hard enough some seminal fluid might dribble out. I been havin the exams for almost 20 yrs now and my doc keeps sayin "Quit backin up on me!" Seriously, whatever you do don't let that experience keep you from getting your prostate checked, too much to lose.
