I have a minor fascination with Medical Science, so I checked

In 1994, FDA approved the PSA test to be used in conjunction with a digital rectal exam (DRE) to aid in the detection of prostate cancer in men 50 years and older. Until about 2008, many doctors and professional organizations had encouraged yearly PSA screening for prostate cancer beginning at age 50

The Draft as it was called, ended in 1973

Back in the days of the dinosaur, Hernias were checked for anally . Or the old finger in the bottom, turn your head and cough.

And some of us identify as dinosaur. Never heard of a rectal exam as a hernia detection exam. That may explain some things.
