Pelvic Exam @ MePs?

I want to join the army, will I need to take a Pelvic Exam At MePs, Or in Basic Training? Nothing wrong with me, I'm Just really squeamish about them. So anyone thats recently gone through MePs know whats up with the Pelvic Exams? Or, If I bring in very recent exam results can I get out of it? Thanks In Advance!!

just to clarify.... Just because I am squeamish about strangers looking at me in such a personal matter doesnt mean that I am not able to meet the challenges of the army. Thank you deni for your crappy answer

u take the pelvic exam at MEPS when u go for your physical. its not that bad and its real quick not like at the regular doc's office. dont be nervous and good luck

I didn't actually get a pelvic at Meps, more of an observation to make sure everything was where it was supposed to be.

Let's put it this way:
You squeamish about anything at all?
Then, please, just Don't bother joining the army!
Man; you expect to face death in the face?? ... and the other powerful challenges of real combat life??

Then these other matters're just 'a laugh' by comparison!

Don't listen to coward deni poster above. As if it is 'manly' to submit yourself to some unnecessary humiliating exam. I wonder why they don't perform similar invasive exams on men? Perhaps because they are given more respect?
I'm glad to hear that you are not just accepting of this when they want to do this to you.
I don't know about whether it is considered mandatory or not to join the army, so you better ask them. If it is mandatory, then I'd advise you to contact a lawyer and fight the case.

good luck
