In the Name of Allah, the All-Merciful, the Mercy-Giving

 

Islam prohibits indecent exposure. The Prophet, peace be upon him, said, “Keep your private parts covered except in front of your spouse.”

However, there is an exception to be made to the above rule because of necessary medical treatment.

Therefore, for treatment or diagnosis, a doctor can see the intimate parts of the patient. In such cases, it a male physician should see a male patient, and a female physician should see a female unless warranted by genuine reasons.

Almighty Allah knows best.
