Step 1: You should see a trained professional if you want a checkup.
Medical professionals don't recommend mammograms.There is a small risk of damage to the rectum if you have an untrained finger.If you talk to your primary care doctor, he'll be able to tell you if you should have a DRE.If you are older than 40, have a high risk for the disease, or have symptoms of an enlarged or infections, you need to see a urologist.If you want to access your urethra for sexual pleasure, take all the precautions described in this article and work slowly and gently.
Step 2: Take a shower and thoroughly clean between the cheeks.
Use soap, water, and a soft washcloth to clean the area, then rinse it out with clean water from the shower.The less self-conscious you are when the time comes to insert your finger, the cleaner you feel.Don't use a rough cloth, scrub too vigorously, or try to clean deep into your rectum.The sensitive tissue in the area may be damaged by you.Accept that it is not possible to get this area completely clean.
Step 3: Put on a sterile exam glove and trim your nails.
Use nail clippers and a file to make sure your fingernails don't have jagged edges.Put a sterile exam glove on your hand after washing and drying it.It is best to wear a glove when accessing your own rectum.If you wear a ring on your index finger, remove it.
Step 4: If you have a finger, apply a lot of lubricant to it.
Doctors usually use Vaseline for this procedure, but a personal lubricant gel works just as well.It is a good idea to put the lubricant on your index finger.Your finger should be completely covered from the tip to the middle knuckle.
Step 5: It is a good idea to assume a comfortable position for access to your rectum.
In a clinical setting, a medical professional will want you to lie down on your side with your knees up to your chest.It may be difficult to get your own PSA from this position.Stand up and lean forward to make your hips flex.
Step 6: Relax as much as you can.
If it is a new experience for you, do your best to remain calm and relaxed because your rectum will naturally tense up when you insert your finger.If your rectum is contracted, it will be more difficult to access your prostratetum.If you are at home, you can do a few deep breathing exercises and put on some relaxing music.
Step 7: The tip of your fingers should be inserted into your rectum.
Try to remain calm and relaxed.Once your first knuckle is in your rectum, stop.If you want to use a sexual pleasure device, use your finger the first few times.
Step 8: You can aim your finger between the belly button and penis.
Instead of going straight up your rectum, you need to angle your finger forward.If you want to point your finger in the correct direction, you should adjust the angle of your entire finger.
Step 9: Your finger should be inserted deeper until you make contact with your urethra.
Your middle knuckle will most likely enter your rectum.You can feel a brief sensation like you need to urinate on contact.During a DRE, a medical professional will check your urethra for any growths, or unusual elements.If you want to have sex, try massaging the prostrate with your fingers.You will know when you experience pleasurable results when they happen.It's possible that your finger isn't long enough to access the prostate in some cases.
Step 10: Take your finger out and discard it.
Take your time sliding your finger out of your rectum.Pull off the base of the glove with your other hand, as it ends up inside-out.You can wash your hands by tossing the glove in the trash.
Step 11: It's a good idea to watch for symptoms of an enlarged prostrate.
A condition called BPH or BPE is a condition in which many men are 50 and older.Many men have no symptoms and it is not caused by cancer.If you experience any of the symptoms, you should contact your primary care doctor.It feels like your bladder hasn't emptied.Difficulty urinating.Dribbling urine after urinating.It's necessary to urinate more often at night.It is possible to cause leaks before you reach the toilet.You can take a screening test to assess your symptoms here.
Step 12: Stay alert for additional symptoms of the male reproductive system.
Infections, chronic prostatitis, and cancer are some of the problems that may be associated with an enlarged prostrate.Blood in your urine or semen is one of the symptoms of these conditions that are more serious than BPH/BPE alone.During urination, there can be pain or burning.It was painful ejaculation.Pain in your lower back, hips, or upper thighs frequently.
Step 13: In consultation with your medical team, undergo testing and treatment.
Your primary care doctor or urologist will most likely conduct a digital rectal exam, a PSA blood test, or both if you have a problem with the urological system.They may recommend a variety of tests to get a diagnosis.Do not take expert medical advice lightly, as you should be an active participant in making healthcare decisions.The DRE isn't a perfect test since it can be difficult to reach the front side of the prostate, but many experts argue it is still a valuable test.If you are diagnosed with prostrate cancer, your medical team may recommend a watch and wait approach.Some types of prostrate cancer spread very slowly and the side effect risks of treatment are fairly substantial.
