My girlfriend just had a proctoscopy. what could the possible reasons be?

Ask her!!: Since you give little information about age, symptoms, I am assuming that she has had some bleeding or constipation. A proctosigmoidoscopy is an office exam to look at the lower colon and rectum for causes of anorectal symptoms. Why not ask her?
