Can my husband stay with me during the exam?

What exam?: You should speak with your doctor about this, or his (or her) office staff. Most of the time, doctors are happy to have a support person in the room with a patient. Good luck.

Yes, just ask: It is often allowable to have someone in the exam room if you so choose. Many men and women don't feel comfortable during a private-are examination on their partner/spouse and so they step out, but if you are ok with it and he has no trouble staying, just let doc know so. Good luck.
