The only procedure for males I’m aware of that would include that directly involve entering that hole already.

That’s called “sounding,” right?

It’s called digital exam.

Checking for hemorrhoid issues should work the exact same for men and women, and men get their prostate checked on top of that (which works differently than a hemorrhoids check).

Gotcha - wasn’t aware that was something that was normally checked for. The most invasive thing I’m aware of is the turn and cough hernia check.

IME it’s not something that’s checked for every time you come in for someting genital-related, but if someone is going to check for that it’s most likely your gynecologist or urologist.
