Live Demonstration: Male Pelvic Floor Internal Examination
Added 2025-03-06 16:07:00 +0000 UTCI’m thrilled to bring you an exclusive, first-of-its-kind educational demonstration—a live male internal pelvic floor exam.
Hey there, amazing members!
I’m thrilled to bring you an exclusive, first-of-its-kind educational demonstration—a live internal pelvic floor examination on a male model. This session is designed to demystify the process, reduce fear and stigma, and provide valuable clinical insight into what happens during an internal pelvic floor assessment. Please note that each assessment is tailored to the individual based on their symptoms and goals and this video demonstration may not fully reflect a tailored internal (or external) pelvic floor muscle assessment.
⚠️ Important Disclaimer:
This demonstration is strictly for educational purposes. It is not medical advice and should not replace a personalized evaluation from a qualified healthcare provider. The purpose of this session is to educate and empower individuals with knowledge about the male pelvic floor.

2025-04-21 17:26:35 +0000 UTCI was just referred by my GI Dr for pelvic floor therapy for several reasons and this was very helpful in understanding what is likely to happen at my initial exam. I have had a lot of problems with BPH and ended up having a TURP procedure and things haven't really been the same since so I am hoping that this will help restore some things with therapy (erections without an injection, pain after ejaculation, retrograde ejaculation, etc ...) Thanks so much for your very comforting videos that help demystify the process.

2025-03-08 01:24:07 +0000 UTCDr. Susie, Very informative! I know when I was just starting out learning about my pelvic floor muscles, there was nothing on the Internet about male pelvic floor therapy. My current PFT uses the same technique you use when it comes to inserting her finger. However she doesn't give me the option of position. I usually am on my left side. I do like the idea you have about being able to see her face and she sees mine. Facial expression says a lot, even when they don't say anything. Keep informing us.

2025-03-06 17:22:35 +0000 UTCHmm. I know that many men have anxiety or do not like DRE in cancer screening. In general, how do you perceive anxiety about an internal exam to compare with anxiety about external and genital exam? My pelvic therapist and urologist might disagree, but I think I'm relatively comfortable with the internal and general external, but genital exam causes me anxiety. On my first visit with the pelvic therapist I asked for an internal to be included as my entire pelvic area had been given 28 doses of radiation and 30 CT scans and I was interested in being assured about the general health.
