What Causes Penis Erection During Testicular Ultrasound?

I had a testicular ultrasound done recently. The test took about 15 minutes. During the test at about 10 minutes in I felt as if I was about to ejaculate. I did not have an erection at the time but when this started to happen I started to become erect. I asked the tech if she could stop for a minute but she said she was almost done and not to be embarrassed about an erection. Just as she was explaining that this was ok. I ejaculated. This was very embarrassing. Should she had stopped when I asked her to or was she just used to males getting erections during this procedure and thought nothing of it, not realizing the reason I wanted her to stop was because I felt I was about to ejaculate. I know this is not very common but does this happen and why would I have this happen when I was not sexually stimulated in any way. I don't know how this happened so suddenly.

Welcome to health care magic.

1.You have not mentioned why you have had the scan in first place.
2.First thing the scanning place is genitals possibilities are there.
3.Second place scanning person is a female, so possibilities increase for ejaculation.
4.There is nothing to get embarrassed possibly the tech would have stopped when you requested.
5.This can be expected, don't get embarrassed, things do happen. Good luck

Hope i have answered your query.
