Girls, would like to hear from any female doctor or nurse if possible. Is it ok for a female doctor to examine a penis and testicles without gloves?

I had a Dr visit today with a different female Dr since my regular one is on medical leave. I was getting a physical exam and when it came time to examine my penis and testicles she did not wear gloves like every Dr I've had do this before that. She just held my penis in her bare hand with her thumb and first two fingers. She moved it around while feeling and checking my testicles for lumps. And then used both hands to move around my penis and examine it. The whole thing only lasted about a minute. And thank God I didn't get an erection.
Is there any medical reason she did not where gloves while touching my penis? Or did she just do it because she thought I wouldn't think about it and let her do it? Was I inappropriately touched by her not wearing gloves? Like I said every other female Dr who has ever touched my penis has worn gloves the whole time. She had a female nurse in the room the whole time and she watched everything the Dr did. Staring at my exposed genitals the entire time. Which is fine, I understand the reason for that. But she had a huge smirk on her face the entire time she was watching. Which I think was inappropriate for the situation. Was she enjoying seeing the Dr touch and examine my naked penis? Do some nurses and Drs actually have sexual thoughts while doing this kind of examine? I always thought they all just think nothing of it and go on to the next patient. But the way she was smiling, she had to have been liking it. She was maybe 5 years younger than me I'd say. Just was a really awkward and uncomfortable examine for me with the Dr not wearing gloves and the nurse smiling like that. What do all the Drs and nurses on this page think. Would love some female opinions. Thanks everyone.

Med student over here. I spent 3 months in urology and I’ve seen something like 10 penises every day. I personally always wear gloves when examining patients, even if I just have to touch their abdomen, but that’s just me. You don’t have to wear gloves if your touching only the skin, it’s up to you, what matters is you clean your hands between each patient.
In those three months I’ve seen men around my age, younger and older than me. Honestly all I was thinking was doing my job and not missing anything during the examination. Also sometimes patients got awkward because I was a girl looking at their penises, some didn’t want to take off their clothes and that made me feel awkward too. If you see your patient is not comfortable you get uncomfortable too, it was very weird, and I may even have smiled but that’s what I normally do when I’m embarrassed... Trust me, when you’re the 100 penis you see in a week it really loses any type of sexual connotation, it’s just a part of the body like a hand 😂

Thanks for the response. I have another medical question for you. I hope that's alright. A few years ago I had a scrotal ultrasound. And during it my penis became exposed and because of the warm gel and the wand bumping my penis. I ended up slowly going from flaccid to rock hard erect in front of her. She didn't recover me at all and just continued to do the ultrasound. While smirking and taking glances at my erect penis. Smh... Was this appropriate for her to do. Should she have covered me again while I was still flaccid? Or at least once she saw I had an erection? She only covered me when I acknowledged and apologized for getting an erection. She looked at it and said that's perfectly fine and finally covered me. What was the point of covering me after she had seen my erection for about 15 minutes already? Do you think she kept me exposed hoping I would become erect? And after I had dressed and she came back in. She left me to the door and said she hopes to see me again soon while smiling and glancing at my groin. I was too embarrassed by her not only seeing my flaccid penis. But being able to watch as my penis became erect. The only female to see me go from soft to hard was my wife before this. Should I complain to the clinic manager? I just feel like she wasn't respect of my feelings and modesty. Thanks for any response.

My boyfriend mom a doctor and she said she must wear gloves to touch that area. if she didn't wear any you can sue them

[Andros133]

Wow, thanks for the response. Does she think this Dr did that because I wouldn't realize or complain? And that she didn't wear gloves on purpose and probably was enjoying it? Taking advantage of me?

[Andros133]

I feel really embarrassed knowing I let her touch me like that without gloves. And I can't believe she did it with a nurse watching and the nurse didn't say anything. Just smiled the entire time while staring at my penis. 😔

She probably liked you lol. My bfs mom said she has had some sexual thoughts when doing some guys but she has to stay professional.

[Andros133]

Ok, lol. Ask her if she enjoys it when a guy gets an erection during a genital exam. I had that happen twice before. Where my penis became erect and the Dr seemed to smile a lot during the rest of the exam. And even comment on it by saying she sees that it's working like it should. Meaning the erection in front of her. And they usually seem to take more time examining my penis when that happens. Thank her for all her advice.

I have two boys and they always just wash there hands, they never wear gloves. Maybe it's just cuz they are babies but as long as your doc had clean hands it shouldn't be a issue

My mum is a doctor and she said she doesn't wears gloves when she checks testicles (she has checked 100s) because it interferes with the exam. Don't know about penises?
