You squatt like you are doing deep knee bends or going to the bathroom and the doctor reaches under you to penetrate your rectum to feel the prostate. If you don't want to do it this way I would request a more traditional position.

It is also called Digital Prostate Examination. It is done by the urologist to check your prostate configuration in order to understand if it is enlarged, anything unusual has happened (when cancer the lobes do not move).

You have to prostate on your knees (like Muslims praying) and the doctor will put his finger inside through your anus, after wearing a glove and lubricate with special chemical. This is the only position to examine your prostate.
