Your Doctor is your doctor so why wouldn't you tell him?
If you're afraid he will judge you, then find a new doctor. Ditto if you're afraid he'll tell someone.
He's your doctor and therefore you are basically trusting him with your life. You'll go to him for sore throats, gout and skin rashes, right? No problem with the run of the mill stuff, right? What will you do that dreaded morning if you wake up with a chlamydial or gonococcal infection all over your bum? You'll need medicine, fellas and if your doctor already knows about your sexual habits then the trip to his office is going to be a lot less humiliating and the medicine not nearly as bitter.
Hubbys doctor knows. My doctor knows. We'd never wager our health over 45 seconds worth of mildly awkward conversation.
