As you are aware, most companies dont ask employees to undergo checkup.
Thus, I ask you the questions: will physcial checkup by company doctor will reveal something ( I visit WLs and FLs)?
When filling questionaires like ''do you engage in sexual activities?" , should I put yes or no?
If put yes, what happens?
If put no, I would be exposed thru checkup?

Yes, bro...the check up may expose something sexually wrong wif u if it includes a sex check...if u know wat i mean...
But usually, for such pre-employment medical check-ups as most of us who hav gone thru' it know, are usually quite simple ones ..the doctor just scoping yr chest, checking yr throat & taking yr blood pressure...u wil be asked to give a urine specimen...there is no removal of any clothes frm the waist down
But understand for the guys there may oso be a quick genital examination...so if u hav engaged in sexual activities wif FLs etc & if there is a infection of some kind tats shows on yr private parts, & unless it is very minor, the doctor may be able to pick it up if he is experienced or sharp enuff...however some minor infections like herpes, can't be seen or detected by mere physical examination.. only more serious ones like syphilis or gonorrhea which manifest themselves externally, can be visually seen by the doctor during such checks...a blood test wil hav to be taken to confirm HIV & most types of STD/STI...
So though simple as they seem to be, medical check-ups shd always be treated seriously as they may reveal something tat is disadvantages physically to u, if the examination is thorough enuff...e.g. NS medical check-up or medical checks for going overseas for example usually include an examination of the male private part which could reveal any sexual infections or disorders u may hav whether u know it or not.. if u are really worried abt tis, one suggestion is for u to go consult yr own family doctor for a similar check-up first...& if he gives u the green light, then u can go to the company's 1 wif a peace of mind...
Contrary to wat u said & if i m not wrong, most companies esp those bigger ones & the civil service would require their new hires, both males & females to undergo such medical check-ups b4 they are allowed to start on the job...those small, small private companies wif only a handful of staff may not be required to appear for such medical checks...
Anyway worst comes to the worst, just be prepared to lose the job if they fail yr medical check-up for watever reasons they find during the examination...just my 2 cents worth...wishing u the best of luck in yr forthcoming medical check-up !...maybe u can let us know how it goes after tat...
