Visiting the Doctor
I know that there are some skirt wearers here that have had testicular pain or health issues. I am going to visit my doctor tomorrow since I have had some testicular and groin discomfort. My doctor is a woman. Am I being too self conscious if I’m questioning to wear a skirt to the appointment? Has anyone ever gotten medical advice from a doctor to wear a skirt?

Yes, I go to the doctors all the time wearing a skirt .. I do not own any pants.

Re: Visiting the Doctor
Yes I have and that is how I became a skirt wearer. I spent over 9 weeks in a skirt on orders from my doctor, she was a dermatologist. I received chemical burns on my bum and that got infected so I went to see her on the advice of a friend. The first thing she did was to put me in skirts. The infection had spread down between my legs and pants were keeping it from healing.Wonderful Electric wrote: Am I being too self conscious if I’m questioning to wear a skirt to the appointment?

After nine weeks I found that pants were so uncomfortable that I could not stand to wear them again.

How lucky you are to have such a compelling justification for wearing skirts! Ideally, “Because I want to” should be the only reason anyone needs. I’m sorry to hear that you had such a painful experience.Fred in Skirts wrote:Yes I have and that is how I became a skirt wearer.

Re: Visiting the Doctor
I never been told to wear a skirt by a doctor. But at my last check up I had my lady surgeon smiling . I was standing on the little platform they have in the exam room . I needed my leg checked from a recent surgery. She stood in front of me and said "this exam is going to be easy, Lift up your skirt"

Re: Visiting the Doctor
It has been almost three years or so since the medical problem. Now I do say "because I want to and can". I really do enjoy wearing skirts and I have found that I am accepted without a problem every where I go. Sure I still get some looks but that's not my problem it is theirs.Wonderful Electric wrote:How lucky you are to have such a compelling justification for wearing skirts!

Re: Visiting the Doctor
Well, I have yet to visit the doctor in a skirt as I normally go on a work day (I'm in my work uniform), however I will say if you get admitted to the hospital, they're just going to put you in a dress anyway....

Re: Visiting the Doctor
I've had several doctors comment on how much easier and quicker it is if the patient is wearing a skirt.
There is no such thing as a normal person, only someone you don't know very well yet.
