I swim three times a week at a high school pool. In the summer I wear a swimsuit cover up over my suit so I don't have to change in the locker room. Otherwise I wear my suit under my clothes and after swimming cover with my towel and don't put on a bra and run out the door.
Other women stand naked in the shower and talk. I don't like my body fully clothed and making small talk naked horrifies me.
I haven't had a pap smear or mammogram in years (which I know is dumb as there's good reason to have them.) I finally started seeing a chiropractor for pain in my calf and even though I don't like to be touched, I couldn't take limping in pain any longer. At first it felt like he was using a crowbar on me, now it's more like a butter knife.
