Wearing Intimates to the Doctor

[Ronni Seymour]

I pretty much have stopped wearing male boxers and just exclusively wear panties however I dress. I notice a number of sisters usually wear male underwear to the doctor. The kind of undies I wear is my business and I really shouldn't care what others might think about it. So the next trip I take to my doctor I will continue to wear my ladies things. I assume he will ignore the issue and not say anything.
Who else has done the same, and what was the doctors/nurses reaction?

[Katrina]

I've worn panties to the doctor's office on at least two occasions and the doctor didn't bat an eyelash either time. Of course, they were plain white or plain black bikinis. One time, my toes were painted a bright red and I was wearing sheer trouser socks...still no reaction.

[kaitlin]

This is my only Doctor/nurse encounter...About two years ago I started having chest pain and a funky heart beat, went to the ER and was admitted to CCU for montoring! It turned out to be a reaction to tagamet and all was well by the next morning. But it never crossed our minds about my CDing before we went! Mauve polish on my toes, purple panties with a cute little lace trim and a small bow in the front and smooth shaved legs. We did well on covering things up until we got to CCU where the nurse needed to do a full exam for pulses and edema, which ment checking the pulses in both feet, behind my knees and in the groin area etc. We told her about the why's and what's...she was fine with it and even said she thought it was pretty cool, loved the nail color! I think I was more concerned about what the hospital staff was going to think then why I was having problems. I know they see it all, I was in the medical field for 30 years but it's still concerned me some. Kaitlin

My last drs visit was for a physical and to ask for a referral to a gender therapist. So although I was dressed in drab I was underdressed and he and his assistant (med student) were so good with it. I would not worry.

Well I don't wear my panties to the doctor but I got caught with my pink toe nails once and that was funny. My wife usually accompanies me when I go to the doctor ( yes, she still treats me like a 3 year old). Luckily this day she didn't come with me. She would have been mortified. I showed my picture of Rita which I always carry with me to the doctor and he thought that I looked pretty good. Nice guy.

[Lorileah]

They DON'T care. They are professionals who are there to maintain your health. Your choice of clothing should only prompt the question of if they can help you transition if that is what you are looking towards. Most the time you are naked anyway with a gown that is far worse than any undergarment you could want to wear.

They don't care...they are doing their job

[Laura_Stephens]

People who work in the medical profession -- as well as cops -- have seen EVERYTHING. It takes quite a bit to shock them. Much more than wearing panties.

[JenniferR771]

I was at the doctor last week. Drab, but he knows (because my wife told him). We discussed it a little bit. He said he would like to see my pics. Said something about the law or ethics prevents him from telling others and he was careful to not mention it in my (now computerized) medical record. Mentioned he had a couple of other cd patients. Later I told the nurse as she put a band aid on a leg cut. I mentioned I was cd because my legs were partly shaved

[Barbara918]

I've underdressed for doctor's appointments. Her assistant said "That's a very pretty bra" as she was checking my BP. No problem.

[lingerieLiz]

Only time I've had any static was at a chiropractor's office. I had been in for several treatments and the staff had put the electrodes for my tailbone below my panties. This day the doctor went to remove them and as she did she pulled the waist line elastic on my panties and let it snap. I'm sure she did it to let me know what she knew. They were a very shear material and obviously panties. She never said a word. A few visits later I was wearing my Princess running shoes and she said we have the same shoes on how do you like them?

[Alaceann]

I went to the Drs. thinking only a blood test boy was I wrong.He has a nurse yake my vitals then tells me totake off my shirt and shoes& socks. Well he leaves the room and I quickly get off my pantyhose and socks and there they are MY TOENAILS painted in bright red. Dr. comes back in cecking my chest then goes to my feet ,when he see's my toes I see his eyebrows rize up but not a word about them.:o

[Vi]

Im sure they wouldn't mind as was said they are professionals and are more concerned with your health than as to what you wear i imagine. Unless it was a foot doctor then im sure they'd tell you not to wear heels everyday.

[Anna the Dub]

I don't have any male underwear anymore. I did have to take my top off for a nurse once, and of course I had a bra on. She never made a comment about the bra but she did say 'Wow, you are really coming on!'. Cheered me up no end. Also, when I was involved in a car crash recently, I told the paramedic who was checking me over, that I was a TS (I was dressed in androgynous womens clothes). I noticed a significant change in her attitude towards me, she became much more friendly and chatty, was very, very curious and asked me lots of questions. It was quite nice, actually, in an otherwise awful day.

[Karen__Starr]

Never had issues with my doctor but several times got stares from patients in the waiting room but ignored them.

[Kimberly Marie Kelly]

and the doctor never said a thing or reacted negatively. So don't worry what you wear. Kimberly :battingeyelashes:

[Anna the Dub]

Never had issues with my doctor but several times got stares from patients in the waiting room but ignored them.

I encountered that yesterday when I went to collect my prescription. The men won't look at you, they glance and then quickly look away, looking very uncomfortable. The women, on the other hand, openly stare. Curiosity, probably.

[Jilmac]

I go to my local VA center for my medical needs. I see a nurse/pracitioner as my primary provider. I wear panties every time I go and she hasn't ever made any comment. I guess most of them have seen it all before.

[Joselle3]

Hi Ronnie

Doctors have seen it all dear.
Even though I had told my doctor I was a crossdresser and TG I still couldn't get pass those ugly male underwear when going for a physical until the last time when I just decided what the heck? I wore black brief panties with lace around the legs..
He did his usual poking and prodding thing and not a word was said about the underwear..
turned out it didn't matter

[Babette]

I were ever so foolish to wear male underwear to the doctor's office, he might be disturbed enough to have me committed. Why change from what I normally do? In reality, I don't think there is too much I could do to ever surprise him.

Babette

[carrie-ann]

I only have panties so thats what i wear 24/7

[joannemarie barker]

there's always a chance your doc has a nice pair of frillies on too :)

[Claire Cook]

They DON'T care. They are professionals who are there to maintain your health.

They don't care...they are doing their job

Absolutely. While I don't wear a bra all of the time, I do wear panties all of the time (and shave legs and underarms) and have never had a comment. I tell my doctors that I am TG, and that I take phyto-estrogens. BTW, my current doctor is a woman, and I am very comfortable asking her about the effects of soy, which I am now taking.

[Ronni Seymour]

Happy to hear all the replies. I assumed as much, but it is nice to hear others experiences.

[Rachel Morley]

I have been wearing a bra and panties as my only underwear for 7 years now. I have a female doctor too and while I do remove my bra when I have a doctors office appointment, I don't change anything else about my underwear. I don't remove my toenail polish either. Ok, my panties on these occasions are plain colored cotton ones with no lace, very ordinary, but it's still obvious that they are panties ..... especially to another woman. What happened? .... nothing! I did feel a little bit shy standing there in my panties and painted toenails the first time but I'm fine now. I don't know if it's just me or not, but I've noticed she has never referred to my panties as "shorts" or "briefs" or anything like that, when she examines me she just asks me to pull my "underwear" down. Maybe it was nothing and I'm reading more into it. Anyway, it's certainly not a problem. :)

[sissystephanie]

As I mentioned on another Thread, I wear panties to the doctors office all the time. And that means to numerous doctors since I have several specialists. I also have pedicures, usually with some shade of bright red polish. My Endochronologist always asked me what color are my toes before he tells me to take my shoes and socks off so he can check my feet.

I wore pink satin panties the last time I went to my Cardiologist, and she did a full body blood pressure check. When she pulled my pants down to check the groin area she saw my pink panties. All she said was, "nice underwear!" Of course she had seen white satin ones on me before!:heehee:

[Diane Smith]

I dress "as usual" for my doctor's appointments, which means panties and women's trouser socks, painted toenails, long acrylic fingernails, earrings and heels. She knows all about me and may ask a question or two about where I've been and how Diane is doing, but it is always friendly and professional and doesn't get in the way of any serious health business.

In 2001, I had a heart problem and wound up spending nine days in the hospital after being admitted through the emergency room. I got an artificial heart valve implanted as well as a triple bypass. Some of the nurses and techs absolutely loved my red toenails and femmy tattoos, and made them a fun topic of conversation. The ones who didn't just politely and professionally ignored them. I'm sure everybody on the floor knew, though, since I had to walk up and down the hallway for exercise several times a day with legs and feet on full display. It was pretty much the last thing I was worried about in the context of my rather serious medical situation.

[marny]

Nails are painted. Body is shaved. panties aren't an issue! :tongueout

[Karren H]

Well if you do and recieve sub-standard medical care then it's time to change doctors.... better hurry though... under the proposed health care system you may not have any choices... Hate to get stuck with a panty hating doctor for the rest of your life!! lol

[Foxy Lady]

I have gone to the doctor wearing bra, panties,garter belt and stockings. the only comment was from the nurse who wanted to know where I got The garter belt.

[Always Susan]

The only time I wear male underwear is to go to the doctor office. The Doc and I grew up together and know the same people. I don't think he would ever say anything but he does work with my wife at the hospital and I know she would like my panty wearing to be bewteen her and I. Never heard any thing about my shaved legs or underarms from him or his nurses.

[Rebecca Jayne]

Remember Doctors are bound by patient/Dr. privilege

And to a Dr. discretion is the better part of valor.

I wouldn't worry

[Annie D]

About a year and a half ago I had hip replacement surgery and since I have had several ultra feminine tattoos decided that for my surgery I wouldn't try to hide anything. When I arrived for my pre-surgical ekg and physical, I had tan lines from sunbathing in my two piece, so I just underdressed as usual. The morning of my operation when the nurse's aide was putting on my surgical socks, he couldn't fail to see my newly painted toenails. The anethetists couldn't fail to see the tats on my lower back and the operating surgeons had to see the ones on my hip and groin as well.

My employer changed medical insurance carriers the next year and I had some flu symptoms and made an appointment to get a physical with a new physician. Knowing that upon examining me, the doctor would surely see what I had done to my body, so I underdressed and wore women's jeans, a feminine top, women's clogs, double set of earrings, light make up and lipstick and carried a over-the-shoulder travel pouch. Although the physician's assistant admired my tattoos and the color of my toenails and the physician herself had a couple of questions about the relationship between my wife and myself, I was treated with professionalism and courtesy.

I have returned several times for follow up check ups and now everytime I go to the doctor, I dress entirely enfemme; choosing to wear a dress rather than slacks. The doctor and I chat, exchange pleasantries and talk about my health; just like every other patient who she sees.

My advice: don't worry about it, your fear exists in your mind only and the people who work in a doctor's office may say something about you when you're gone but they will treat you with the utmost respect.

[DeeInGeorgia]

When I changed medical plans 2 or 3 years ago, I asked the doctor if he had any problems working with a transgender/crossdresser. He said no, but over the year, his non-verbal cues, like taking me off his list of patients said otherwise. The replacement was asked, and same story, suddenly I did not have a Primary Care physcian, and other things. So I selected a female doctor as the third PCP, and for my first appointment, I went dressed enfemme. I found out at my appointment that while she was not transgender in her mind, she had often thought she should have been a man, as she had many male dominance characteristics which mad it difficult to stay in a marriage.

Well, my employer has mandated another healthcare plan, so I needed to find a new PCP. I found two possibilities. Both times, admin or nurses were asked the question about me coming to the office dressed and being a MTF crossdresser. Both timse, they said they would have to ask the doctor. My first choice spent her own time to call me and tell me yes, she was fine with it and just to make sure I filled out the patient with my male information. My back-up also responded, but through her staff.

A doctor taking the time to speak to a potential patient directly says a lot to me.

In the $3/4bb stimulus bill that was passed, there is a provision where ALL medical professionals (doctors, hospitals, clinics) have to supply electronic medical records to the federal government even if you didn't use insurance -- that is, you paid cash for services.

I don't know the date of when this is to take effect, but it is real. Doctor/patient confidentiality has been legislated away.

[giuseppina]

There are substantial benefits to having records online, not the least of which are patient safety and speed of treatment.

The government, or any other holder of patient information, has a fiduciary duty to protect the contents of health records from unauthorised access, and as such, due diligence is required to prevent same. Security is an ongoing issue, but with good software and properly qualified and ethical personnel operating and watching over access to data, it won't be much of an issue to users.

The fear of a high dollar lawsuit often does wonders for security.

[Michelle123]

I have a strong opinion on this subject that I would like to share with the group. Mind you, this is not directed at any one individual. I just think it is something we should consider.
I personally think it is unfair to the medical staff. After all, if this is a scheduled appt., then you as a cd, have the choice as to what you will be wearing for the appt. The individual crossdresser may not be embarrased to go in wearing feminine underclothes, but I believe we must consider just how it might make the people attending to you feel. This could be very embarrasing for them, putting them in a situation that they may not be comfortable with.
If the individual is going through as process such as SRS, and the medical staff is aware of this, then it may be acceptable. But to just spring this on them merely because the crossdresser wishes to be "noticed" for whatever reason, in my opinion is selfish and unfair to the others involved.
We all have our own reasons as to why we feel the need to underdress for certain situations in our lives, but I think we should also consider the other people we involve in our actions.
I personally dont endorse the practice of underdressing for Dr. appts. for the reasons I have given above. I would welcome any comments regarding my thoughts.....

[Kimmy55]

I always wear bra,panties,small forms and girl jeans and tops to my Doctor.She has never said a word even though she wanted to check something on my back and had to move my bra strap out of the way.I think they have seen ti all or at least expect to see the unexpected

People will always have trouble with the unexpected. That is why I prefer to take the position that the best way to get people comfortable with transgender people is to be out there just being normal people, so others have a chance to get aquainted with us, used to us.

After all, how to people have a chance to know a true transgender person if they never get to meet one. While I am not TS track, I still think I need to support those transwomen and transmen that are by helping to create an atmosphere in doctors offices that being crossdressed is not out of the ordinary.

My opinion is that it is our collective job to help the world realize crossdressing is somewhat rare but normal.

Deanna

[Jamie001]

Dee,

Thank you for posting this. I completely agree with you that we need to be out there. I completely disagree with Michele's opinion regarding that by underdressing we are not being fair to the Dr's staff. We are not doing anything wrong and are just being ourselves. We need to stop being ashamed of who we are and trying to shield people because we believe that we are doing something wrong. If the Dr's staff can't deal with it, then too bad!! They are professionals, not rednecks from the farm.

:2c: Jamie

Interesting angle Michelle but it really isn't a consideration. Say you go to the doctor dressed as a plumber or sales rep or anything else. They really don't care, they have a job. No different than going to a car salesman or fast food joint. Their feelings on the matter are moot at best. You are not there to make them happy. They do a job they get paid. If they don't like working there because someone wears red or spandex or stripes with plaid they need to either get over it or move on. Believe me what type of clothing you have on does not matter in the performance of the job. You are but a blip to them. A curiosity at most.

Having worked with and around health care professionals ( that is what they are professionals) I can tell you that lace is nothing compared to the person who hasn't showered in weeks. Or the person who finds it funny to have feces in their underclothes. The person who decides that they know more than you do and get belligerent.

They have a dirty job often with blood, urine, vomit, feces and well dirt. They could not give a hoot about what color your bra strap is (although a good doctor will ask if you are taking anything that may be enhancing you breast or if you wish to transition.) In all honesty they don't even know you after you left. You were nothing more than the 2:15 appointment.

You are not there for their comfort. You are there for your health. Nothing more.

This will pop up again and again on these boards and the answers will remain the same. What you wear does not matter. That is covering. Your health is their concern. Your mother telling you to wear clean underwear before you go to the doctor? Nice idea but lace verses cotton? As long as it is presentable. And even then, they don't care.

Did I say they don't care?

[Micayla]

My first time in panties with my doctor was a total accident.I was there just to renew some pain killers for a bum knee.She talked to me about recieving some cortisone shots and I agreed.Thinking it would be done on another appointment .I think I went quite pale when she said to drop my shorts.I was wearing a pretty lacey, marroon coloured sse thru brief.Well she turned a little bit red and said nothing.I asked her if it was troubling to her that i was wearing panties.She replied that it just suprissed her and what I wore was my bussiness alone.Since that time she has seen me in nothing but girly panties and always smiles :)

[Jamie001]

I would be willing the bet that she was also wearing panties and therefore understands that they are comfortable. On the other hand, she may be wearing men's boxers like a lot of women do.

She definitely wears ladies briefs,could not help but notice when she bent down(White nothing fancy).:brolleyes:

[Jennifer in CO]

I stopped by my Dr's office last fall to pick up a re-issue for an on-going prescription, something I had done (and have done since) many times without an appointment or visit with the Dr or nurse. It was a cooler day so I was wearing a light jacket zipped up. The other reason I had it zipped up was I had on a nice blouse (black satin with puff short sleeves). I also had on side-zip slacks (no pockets), nylon/lace trouser socks and my usual loafers (also womens) and my usual full under-dressing...in black. When standing or walking, the socks can't be seen so I never really worry about them (yeah you can see 'em when you sit but ask me if I care...). Well, of all the times the Dr wanted to see me. I still didn't think anything about it since I have had to "see" her before...more of a consultation meeting I assumed like last time in her office. Not this time. I was directed to an exam room and the nurse asked me to take off my jacket so she could get my vitals. Ooooook....I said. I took off the jacket. She said pretty blouse. I thanked her. More small talk but she was strictly business in her actions and not an additional comment except when she was checking heart around front she asked if what I had up top was real or forms or padding...if they were forms I (me) would need to remove them, if it was a padded bra I'd need to remove it. I told her they were real and she proceeded just like nothing else happened. She left and I purposely stood right next to the door and listened. Not a word to anyone outside the door at the nurses station. Dr came up a few minutes later and I still didn't hear anything. Then she came into the room. "Pretty blouse" again..."where'd you get it". Slight amount of surprise on her face when I told her where and that it was a birthday gift from my wife. We talked, she went back over the notes from the nurse, she checked heart again and said "thats better". (I had relaxed a bit from the initial surprise of having to take off my jacket so I guess my rate was up a bit the first time). She wrote out my 3 month script, handed it to me and said we'll see you next time for a full checkup. A little more small talk and we left the room...and I left the office...and didn't put my jacket back on.
Very professional, very matter of fact, and if condescending in any kind of attitude, they left it in a back room.

[Seagull]

Since I am fairly much full time now, I am always dressed. The odd thing is when I meet with a new doctor for the first time they always ask if I am post-op more along the lines of "so you have done all your surgeries?"
Which makes it slightly more embarrassing to admit that I'm not even close to there yet, due to $$$ issues.
I have found that most work related doctors, do not want to put anything about it on the Federal forms, and most other medical professionals are more concerned about proper form of address as far as name and pronouns.
Though the funniest was the one nurse who wanted to ask many questions and then informed me about her boyfriend, who recently came out to her. I gave her some places to check out for resources on the web.

[Elle1946]

At one of my doctors visit I told him that I was a CDer, and it didn't seem to bother him a bit. He told me that it could not go any further than him or his office if a nurse noticed my undies. So, wear what you want.

[Kiera79]

I had a mersa infection on the back of my leg from a prick on a park bench and had to visit the local urgent care facility. I was smooth and silky from groin to toe. Didn't wear polish at that time. The nurses asked questions and I explained. Made for good conversation and that was about it. I felt good about it but it hurt like hell when she cut my leg open. DXXX now I have a scar. LOL.

[kimberly ann487]

Friday I'm having my annual stress test. This will be my first without body hair, lol. Check for weekend updates, lol.:heehee:

[Electra]

annual stress test.

Hm, never heard of that concept before.:confused: Wonder if it's typically American like the psycho profession's alphabetic soup of disorders.

[TonyaV]

I have to be very careful when I see mine. She is my neighbor.

[weekend woman]

Funny thing, I had an appointment this afternoon with a specialist. I wore panties which are my "normal" underwear and my toenails are painted. I didn't give it a second thought as I assumed he would just ask a few questions and schedule some tests at a later date. Boy was I wrong. He said to take off my shoes, socks and pants. Thought to myself here goes nothing, I undressed, he performed some tests, prescribed a course of physical therapy, and said come back in 4 weeks. He said nothing and I didn't get embarressed. Now we'll what reaction the physical therapist has if any.

[helenr]

I read once that it is so common for emergency room personel to find admitted patients are underdressed as women. Apparently, they aren't so shocked any more. Makes one wonder just what is the percentage of crossdressing that exists.
when I had to have some pre radiation treatment-specifically a special head mask cast that staff would secure to the radiation table-just miserable experience-Teddi, the sweet tech, unbuttoned my shirt a few button and I hadn't considered removing my lacy nylon camisole. I knew that she could see it, identified it, but just smiled sweetly and moved the shirt fabric out of the way. On another occasion when actually being radiated, she tucked the top of my pantyhose down as it apparently had been exposed a bit(shirt was off for treatment). no big deal. I guess these folks have seen it all and compared with cancer it is pretty small stuff.

[CharleneT]

Well... I have done so in the past without anyone saying "boo", they are professional and as others have said: they've seen it all. Nor do they care in most cases, busy doing their job. Now, in recent months, since I show up to my appointments in full female dress/makeup etc... it seems moot whether I'm wearing panties ;) Still nothing said by any staff.

[TammyCA]

After many years of seeing a doctor that I loved *female doctor* and finally finding the courage to share Tammy with her..I found great joy in seeing her with my toes painted. Recently, I had to change doctors and for my first appointment off came the polish..I feel like I left behind a huge part of me with my other doctor.

[Jamie001]

Tammy,

Why did you take off the nail polish? It is no different that a guy going to the doctor with tattoos or piercings. We need to start looking at things that way. After all, I am sure that have seen a lot of toenail polish.

:hugs: Jamie

[TammyCA]

Hi, Jamie,

Why did i remove the polish? Gee, probably several reasons or perhaps excuses.....my previous doctor I knew for years and had a level of trust and confidence in her when I first told her that I crossdressed. She was very supportive and asked to see pictures of me which I shared with her on a subsequent visit. So it was a gradual process of sorts leading to wearing my toe polish on visits.

My new doctor?...well..because I didn't know her at all *and she also has several patients that I work with although I don't really think she would ever share that info*..I just felt "not ready" to tell her. BUT..I will be sharing it with her at some point.

Your observations are on point and well taken. Thanks for sharing that.

Hugs,

Tammy

[MissyW]

I have worn panties to several appointments with no reaction at all.I'm sure doctors and nurses, like cops , see alot during the day.

[shypaula]

I wear panties and a bra all the time. My doctor knows of my "hobby" and she is okay with it.
My chiropractor must know as well.

[StacyCD]

Unless your wearing women's clothing is a medical condition, no physician or medical assistant would ever put anything into a medical chart about a person wearing women's clothing or being a crossdresser because of the incredibly large lawsuit that would/could result. I started wearing panties 24/7 almost two years ago and had several visits to the doctor for exams. Nothing has ever been said. I have also gone with my toenails painted bright red but have not had to remove my socks as of yet. It's the same thing with pierced ears--nobody really cares. I wish I had done it years ago!

[vspowers]

I wore a bra, panties and blouse to the doctor once. The rest was guy stuff. The blouse caused a problem when I couldn't get the sleeve up past my bicep to get my blood pressure taken. The nurse asked me to take it off and I did. So I sat there in my bra and had my blood pressure taken. I was a little embarrassed, but that didn't stop me from wearing pretty underwear the next time.
