Okay, it’s official: you or your partner have a medfet kink. Join the millions of kinky people who might find it somewhat fun to head to the doctor’s office. ;) There’s only a slight problem: medical equipment is actually kinda expensive, and you are not ready to gut your house and turn it into a sterilizable surgery suite. Well, let me save you some money with some of these beginner medical fetish ideas.
Medical equipment is expensive. That’s a fact. If a hospital is willing to pay it, a manufacturer is willing to jack up the price. (And to be fair, if we’re talking hospital-grade equipment, it has to be quality enough to be depended on for years.)
But you, my little kinkster, are probably not looking to actually do open heart surgery on your partner. You just might want to pretend that you’re going to do evil, terrible things within the confines of your home. Purely for orgasmic purposes, of course. ;)
With that in mind, here are some of my favorite medical fetish ideas to help transform your space into a faux hospital room:
Have Your Partner Leave the House
If you’re trying to recreate a medical environment, you’re going to have a whole lot harder time doing it if your partner is watching you set it up while watching Netflix. It loses a lot of the appeal of the magical transformation. It’s kinda like trying to roleplay hiring an escort (like those at Skokka Cyprus). “Hiring an escort” doesn’t feel like a particularly realistic roleplay if your “hired escort” is eating lunch at the dining room table until you’re ready to start the roleplay.
Instead, have all of your transformation supplies ready and hidden – and then send your partner out. I recommend sending them on a “fun” errand to get drinks or go out to eat without you. Sending them on annoying bank errands might leave them in a poor headspace.
While they’re gone, set up a room in your house to be your “medical fetish” room. Assuming you don’t have a massage table handy, I’d recommend using the bedroom. We’ll get to that in a second.
If you can, section off a space near the front door with a single chair in it as a “waiting room”. Try to make it impossible to see into the rest of the house from this area. (Closing doors or hanging a temporary curtain can help).
Add a bit more realism by including a small table near the chair for your “magazines“. The lewd-est of us might think about including porn mags there, and have at it. If your patient is more of an erotica reader, don’t hesitate to print off some erotica that will get them in the mood for what the doctor is about to do.
Request your partner to knock on the door when they’re back. From there, you can easily “escort” your patient to the waiting room. Feel free to leave them there for awhile while you put on any finishing touches. Uncomfortable, unknown waiting is part of the experience too.
Transform Your Bedroom with these Medical Fetish Ideas
Okay, you’re going to use the bedroom for your medfet scene. Hot. Here are some of the tips I’d recommend:
- Clean the bedroom. Sometimes the obvious needs to be said. Pick up all of the clutter around the bedroom. Even if that means tossing piles of dirty clothes onto the kitchen floor for now, get all of the visual reminders of “everyday life” out of there.
- Ideally, clear all bedside tables. If you have small items (like alarm clocks or pill bottles) on bedside tables, clear them out. Doctors’ offices do not have tiny alarm clocks.
- Remove all the bedding and put on a set of plain white sheets. Don’t add a blanket. Tuck in the corners of the top sheet as best as possible. (Nerd out about it a bit with info from YouTube).
- Remove all pillows but one, and get that pillow into a plain white pillowcase. (If your partner needs more than one pillow for accessibility, keep an additional one nearby, but that “gigantic bed with a single pillow on it” visual can feel very medfet-inducing)
- Set up restraints ahead of time, but have them hidden away. An Under-the-Bed Restraint system is seriously A+ for bedroom medfet like this if that’s within the scope of your scene. Otherwise, have your tethers and bondage points set up. If you’re going for fear play right away, maybe you do leave them intentionally in sight.
Use Light Intentionally
Every doctor’s office has those obnoxious overhead fluorescent lights. Your house probably does not. Even if it did, you probably don’t want it to for most of your BDSM scenes; they don’t exactly feel sexy.
You can, instead, replicate some of that with your lights. Swap out lightbulbs for extra bright (but safe for your light sockets) bulbs. When your patient arrives at their appointment, make sure these lights are all at their brightest – especially around the clinical, white-sheets of the bed.
As your scene goes on, make an excuse about how you need to “dim the lights to better view the results of this test”. This gives you a great excuse to reduce the lighting, making it a bit more friendly to most people’s sex brains.
To take your medical fetish ideas to the next level, get a standing lamp with a movable head and bright bulb in it. (like this one!) Place it next to the bed as your sole light source after the lights are dimmed, and move it around the patient’s body as needed. Let’s be real: you’re probably just going to shove it between their thighs as you go, but still! It’s a very bright, dedicated light source that can really reinforce that examination dynamic.
DIY “Tray” that Encourages Scary Medical Fetish Ideas
You’ve seen it: in every scary medical scene in a movie, there’s the spoopy doctor pulling metal torture instruments off a silver metal tray. Some of this is based in reality: steel can be sterilized, and if you’re going to operate on someone, everything needs to be sterile.
You can DIY a bit of this vibe in your own home. Simply move a small table near your scene area. Once it’s there, place a metal serving tray on top of the table. From there, place your scary-looking implements onto the serving tray in a nice, orderly fashion.
Remember: we do want the serving tray to look metal. The friendly “breakfast in bed” trays look way too friendly for what we’re going for here. In a pinch, grab a cookie sheet from the kitchen.
If you really want to do this on a budget, hit up thrift stores. Old-school “serving” trays are an often-donated item, and you can find one dirt cheap at a lot of thrift stores.
Some “cheap” implements we can add to your new tray:
- A wartenburg wheel (I find this is one of the first medfet toy most couples get)
- Speculum
- Safety shears
- Bandage scissors (and/or cuticle cutting scissors)
- Tweezers
(You don’t have to actually “use” all of the implements for your scene. We’re going for a visual of threatening steel objects. That’s all.)
If you don’t have a ton of metal objects, you can pick up a dollar store kit of nail hygiene supplies which will usually give you a cuticle scissor and nail file at a minimum. You can also pick up basic kits like this one.
Display the Other Gear You Have
The first thing you’ll notice in any doctor’s office is that all often-grabbed items are, well, easy to grab. Use that to your advantage in your new medfet room by keeping the gear you do have nicely spread out and easily visible. Not only will this keep your patient “guessing”, but it also makes your BDSM scene run a little easier too.
Don’t forget: doctor’s offices consider gloves and handsoap to be “gear”. Add a small little area with a box of gloves, some soap, and a bottle of lube, and you’ll have a small, theme-adding touch for just a couple of dollars.
Beginner Medical Fetish Ideas: Adjust the Thermostat
Why the fuck is every doctor’s office freakin’ cold? I have no idea, but you can simulate that pretty easily by just adjusting the thermostat in your house. (And if it’s the winter, saving some money in the process).
Turn down the temperature before your patient arrives, but judge the severity based on your plans.
If you want your patient to want to get naked and feel sexy, don’t go too cold. If you want your patient to feel somewhat scared and a little off-balance, feel free to make it frigid.
Think About Your Clothing Choice
You don’t have to buy a doctor’s coat unless you want to. If you want to, right after Halloween can be a great time to pick up cheaper Halloween toys on clearance. It won’t be the highest quality, but it’s cheap.
You don’t necessarily have to buy a doctor’s coat, though. If it’s within your fantasy realm, think about it, but nowadays, a lot of doctor offices are trying for the “approachable doctor” route with business attire instead.
If that’s the vibe of your medical kink bedroom, dress nicely. Wear a nice pant suit or button-down shirt. Put up your hair in a nice, tight bun (if ya have it). You might even consider wearing your dress shoes in the house, if applicable. Your patient won’t see them long, but they’ll be able to admire the full outfit from the walk to the waiting room to the doctor’s office.
One big thing to note: remember that you actually plan on playing and doing your scene in these clothes. If that scene includes blood play, make sure you don’t actually ruin your multi-hundred business outfit. You also need to keep undressing in mind. How much (or how little) do you plan to undress within your scene? For example, taking off business shoes might take a little bit mid-scene. Is that part of making your patient anticipate your next move, or is it just taking you out of the headspace?
Think About Your Patient’s Clothing
You really need to think about the style of your scene for this. What does your patient wear during the scene? Do they undress as part of the scene after you leave the room? Is it an “emergency” scene, and clothing will be cut off of them with safety shears? (If so, make sure your partner wore ratty clothing when you asked them to leave the house earlier!) Have they been hired as an escort Limassol, and thus, immaculate lingerie under their clothing makes perfect sense?
If you want them in a cheap hospital gown, this can be another good reason for an after-Halloween costume clearance run. Otherwise, you can get multi-packs of hospital gowns for not-the-worst prices. Keep in mind how this is supposed to make your patient feel. Hospital gowns aren’t necessarily sexy inducing to all; is that part of the vibe you’re going for?
Otherwise, naked is always an option. The doctor can ask the patient to undress and leave the hospital room. They can knock on the door, asking if the patient is ready, before re-entering.
For the most realism when going for naked medfet play, give the patient a sheet and ask them to cover themselves “to their comfort” before the doctor leaves the room. This can be a great way to let your patient set the pace of the scene as well. If the doctor leaves and comes back to find the patient intentionally masturbating fully naked, well, you know this is a “doctor, I want it, please give it to me” scene. If the doctor leaves and comes back to find the patient perfectly behaved and under the sheet, you might be going for more of a gradual arousal or a fear play scene.
(As always, I recommend discussing the vibe you want out of your BDSM scene before the actual scene begins!)
Check Local Auction Houses or Medical Liquidation Sales
Actual, genuine medical gear and furniture is expensive. Turns out, there’s a decent mark-up on hospital-grade anything.
If having some of that gear appeals to you, consider looking for cheaper ways to get ahold of it.
A local auction house or liquidation center may have used/returned medical gear for cheap. If you’re unsure of its use status, make sure you can sanitize whatever you pick up before you buy it. For common medical items, like tools, tables, or in-home accessibility aids, this can usually be your cheapest method to get ahold of them.
A bit darker (sorry!), but you may also be able to look for someone looking to get rid of their in-home medical gear after whoever was using it at at-home no longer needs it. This happens a lot with wheelchairs or crutches, but you can find it for expensive furniture as well.
Incorporate Other Kinks
There’s only so much “check-up” you can do in a medfet scene before, well, you have to actually do something.
If you’re stuck on the “what do I do in a medfet scene?” part, consider doing some of your other kinks alongside these medical fetish ideas. How can those kinks fit within the vibe of a medical play scene? That gives you a tried-and-true activity for the two of you to fall back on within the “medical” vibe you have going on. Presumably, it’ll keep things low-cost, too, since you already have the gear around for the kinks you regularly explore!
I’m talking about things like:
- Helplessly bound. Does the patient need to be fully restrained as they’re a danger to hospital staff? What nefarious things might happen while they’re so helpless?
- “Forced” orgasms. Is it part of the treatment for the patient to undergo hysteria treatment with a powerful vibrator?
- Good and chaste. Is it your expert medical opinion that the patient’s condition is due to their inability to control their masturbation? They might get put into a chastity device under the doctor’s watchful eye, and then “sent home” (which makes for an easy scene end too!).
- Enema play potential. Does your patient need a clean-out before the anal procedure can begin? If so, an enema bulb and toilet/bucket time can offer lots of humiliation play here.
- Incontinence kinks. Oh no! It looks like incontinence might be the diagnosis here. If so, the doctor might need to restrain the patient to see how affected their bladder is (until they wet themselves) or may prescribe adult diapers.
- Prescribed anal stretching. While fitting pegging itself into a medfet scene can be a bit hard, creativity-wise, fitting anal play into it isn’t so bad. The doctor simply thinks the patient would find it easier to relax – and reduce their symptoms – if their anal entrance wasn’t so tight. We have ways to fix that, don’t we? ;)
- …the list goes on. You can literally add almost any kink in here, really! Simply go with “bondage + treatment required is doing the kink”, and you have the basics of adding any kink in here from tickling to spanking to fireplay.
