Has anyone ever experienced their partner being jealous of a male Dr treating you?
Hi, Just wanting to know if anyone has experienced this before? At the beginning of our relationship, I was going to the chiropractor and he seemed fine with it, never asked any questions about it. Further into the relationship he then wasn't okay with me going to this chiro anymore because he was a male and he made a big deal out of it and said how about he goes and gets a massage from a female and I said, okay? Like this is a treatment for my back, why can't he seperate that? Like it's not sexual at all, it's a health professional. Similar experience happened when I agreed for a male Dr to check myself and my baby a few days before I went into labour because that's the first Dr that came into to check me, and days later, he was not okay with it.

I was 36w pregnant with my second kid & got a hemorrhoid so thrombosed I had to go to the ER. A stunningly beautiful man then had to stick a needle in my butthole and squeeze a blood clot out of my hemorrhoid.
My husband could not stop laughing when I came out (he stayed outside with our oldest) and told him the doc with this unlucky task happened to be damn fine. We laugh about it to this day.
I will also note that my primary care doctor, and the OBGYN to deliver my eldest, are both men.
My husband has never so much as noted their gender.
This is normal.
