* Sexing probes ([[Cloaca|cloacal]] probing) can also be used in iguanas and monitors but aren't as consistently accurate as they are in snakes.

* Injecting saline solution (hydrostatic eversion) into the base of the tail in order to evert the [[Hemipenes|hemipenis]] is another technique. However, care must be taken to avoid trauma to the [[Hemipenes|hemipenis]] and prevent pressure necrosis. This method can be useful for species that are difficult to sex such as [[Monitors|monitors]], [[Black Tegu|Tegus]], large skinks, [[Mexican Beaded Lizard|Beaded Lizards]] and [[Gila Monster|Gila Monsters]].

* Temporary eversion of the [[Hemipenes|hemipenes]] in anaesthetized males can be done by applying gentle pressure at the base of the tail, just caudal to the [[Cloaca|cloaca]].
