Wearing Intimates to the Doctor

[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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!

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.
