It’s because it’s right there and requires no special equipment to get the job done. I never really got why people freak out about a finger back there, you constantly pass fecal matter several times that thick through there. If they could fully check that a baby was ok safely with their finger they’d do it.
Unlike in the movies, doctors usually aren’t trained in sonography. Sure they could figure out how to scan a prostate, but they aren’t gonna go out and buy a fancy 3d ultrasound just for men over 45, and they aren’t going to become, or hire, sonogram techs.
And I’d rather take a finger in the butt than have to have another fucking appointment. No pun intended, but it’s one finger. Unless my doctor is Andre The Giant or E.T., I think I could handle it.
They can get a 3d image of a featus by ultra sound but for some reason prostate exam is still a finger up the butt 👉
Honestly, I bet an ultrasound wand being smashed into your cold gel slathered taint probably wouldn’t be much better

There’s a blood test now. Maybe your doc doesn’t know about it. Maybe your doc has ulterior motives.
If it’s simple and it works, then why change it?
