How Much Sensitivity If Penis Is Reattached? Posted: 02-16-04 00:18am
my
question is this: basically, when a body
part that has feeling
(such as a penis) is removed and then
reattached, if the nerves are
reconnected, how much sensitivity can
return? I have read about things like in
taiwan, they say that sensitivity can
return if all the tiny nerves are found
and connected, but they never say how much
sensitivity, is there any possibility that
there could be a full recovery of
sensation, if all nerves are re-connected?
I don't care whether it's a transplant or
a reattachment, I am simply interested in
the technical aspects of nerves being
reconnected and feeling returning.
As long as a penis is removed from a
person, then reattached, either to that
same person or a different person, it is
irrelevant, I simply want to know about
how much feeling returns when the nerves
in the penis are severed and then
re-connected. I read somewhere that "if
the surgeon who does the replant is an
experienced microsurgeon then he/she can
do arteries, veins and nerves
no matter how small". However, what I am
still trying to learn is: just how much
sensation returns? How do you define
"good"? In short, I would prefer a
percentage value or some sort of
quantifiable analysis or,
failing that, at least a solid series of
reports stating nerve
function and tactile/erogenous sensitivity
in penile reattachment cases.

Wow, what made you think this question up?
Your last name isn't bobbitt is it?
Just joking ya. I'm sure it is a
probability shot. Like a small
percentage of people would regain most
function, a large proportion would be
minorly or majorly impaired but still
function, a for a small proportion it
would turn black and fall off, oops!
Just be careful with the gensu and it's
smoooooooth sailing

Not real funny, was that? Actually, i'm
being serious. Do you know about bobbit's
case? It was reported somewhere that he
might have regained full sensitivity, but
I could never confirm it- does anyone
happen to know for sure of any place where
there is a medically proven statement of
that?
What I am trying to determine, above all
else, is: have you ever had or heard of a
case where the penis was reattached and
the patient made a full recovery of
sensation? Someone said "all of
subjective after the follow up time made
me said that the sensation was recovered",
and "we don’t have the sensation
prior penile amputation to compare", but
was there ever a case where you were able
to compare pre- and post-op sensation? In
other words, do you have any knowledge at
all of any case where a penile
replantation patient regained total
sensitivity? What I have in mind is
something where the penis would be removed
and replaced intentionally, more along the
lines of a transplant than a reattachment.
I was simply asking about reaatachments
because it's for all intents and purposes
the same surgery and is far more well
known, and i'm trying to discern for sure
my aspects of sensation recovery/

I don't know much about this, but all I
can say is the following. First off,
ease up on the guy who actually answered
you, he was joking. And for all we know
bobbit deserved it.
Anyway, if your own penis was cut off or
removed somehow and it was kept on ice and
whatnot and then reattached by a very good
doctor, then I imagine you have a "chance"
of regaining a lot of sensitivity.
Pretty much the same as if it were a
finger of an arm, or leg. But the
surgery could also fail miserably. It
depends on so many different factors.
Now if you mean like a penis transplant,
it would have to be an exact match. I
mean, you cannot cut off a small penis and
try to replace it with a large one,
because it probably just would not work.
Or vice versa. And I just think it would
be a heck of a long shot to do a penis
transplant. Not saying it couldn't be
done.
You probably cannot find information on
this because I do not think this is
something that anyone has openly tested.
Sorry I could not help you more.

Well, actually, my penis hasn't been cut
off, but I want it to be, and i'm not a
female, I simply want to replace the penis
that I have right now for a certain
reason. I am reluctant to reveal what it
is, since I think you would be more
judgmental and possibly even less helpful,
but since you all want to know, i'll post
it. Look at this web address
"http://groups.Yahoo.Com/group/completecir
cumcisionhealing/?Yguid=168362014" and
you'll see what the deal is. And by the
way, I would want a clone of my own penis,
not someone else's. I know that the
probability of how much sensitivity can
return varies mercurially from case to
case, I am simply asking about the best
possible-case scenario: does anyone know
if there has ever been a case with a total
return of sensitivity, not almost or 99%,
but 100%. A full recovery. I'm just
trying to figure out what's possible.

Out of curiosity I went to the site you

Just remember that their is always a 50%
chance of anything happening.
Why don't you accept yourself the way you
are, heck, we are all different!
That is about all I can say!
Sincerely,

I didn't say I didn't think you were
trying to be helpful! I know you are- i'm
not angry or anything, i'm just trying to
explain. Sorry that link didn't work, to
get to the website, just go to yahoo
groups and search for complete
circumcision healing, and yes, even if you
don't look that name should give you some
hint what this is all about.

O.K I see. Anyway, I did finally find
that site. I have a question and forgive
me if too personal. But why do you want
to do this? Is it just because you are
circumcised and want foreskin? Would you
really risk cutting off your manhood and
reattaching a different penis just because
the new one would have foreskin? Or is
there some other reason? You do not have
to answer, but I am just so very confused.
I have never met anyone who was
circumcised that actually wanted his
foreskin back. I have only met one guy
in my entire life who was not circumcised
and he wishes everyday that he had been as
a child because now he is too scared to
get it done.
But anyway, just curious.

Look at the foreskin restoration club.
Even just go to google and do a search for
circumcision, you will see, the first
things to pop up will be about how
damaging circumcision really is, and
people who would give anything to undo it.
Some of those people who you might think
didn't want their foreskin probably did,
but were just too scarred to tell you.
And that poor guy you mentioned who wishes
he wasn't the natural way that humans are
suppose to be, simply to fit into society-
that's really sick. Think about this- if
there was a civilization were every baby
had its right hand cut off, or its eyelids
amputated, if you lived in that society
and you didn't know any different, you
would wonder at anyone who wished they
could have kept their hand or eyelids-
its' the same exact thing. Anyway, this
is opening up a whole another can of worms
that I didn't really want to get into,
which is why I was reluctant to mention
it. I just want to know if anyone would
be willing to help me search for a way to
get a question to a microsurgeon who would
answer it or find a report of a case where
a patient of penile attachment made a full
recovery of sensitivity.

I was not trying to start an argument or
anything, I suppose there are a lot of
people who feel both ways. And he
doesn't wish everyday that he was
circumcised because of "society" it is
because the penis is much more attractive
and pleasurable without foreskin to a lot
of people.
But anyway, I just wanted to know if that
was the only reason you wanted to know
about this and if you are seriously
willing to take that huge chance just for
a piece of skin. I am not trying to
sound ignorant or make it to sound like a
simple piece of skin, because as it seems
this is very important to you. I just
cannot believe that you would actually be
willing to take that huge chance. But, I
am very sorry that I cannot help you, but
if I do come across anything that may be
of use, I will let you know. Good luck
with whatever you do!

Question... Posted: 04-23-04 07:47am
I was wondering how you are planning on
even getting a clone of your penis? ...

Re: Question... Posted: 04-23-04 07:49am
I am simply going to take one of my cells,
have them start to create a cloned fetus,
remove the rest and let the penis develop,
then have it re-attached once its'
complete.

How long is that going to take? And how
much is that going to cost? Is that even
legal? Make a fetus, and then kill it
and take just that one part? From
someone who is so against circimcision it
seems weird that you would think it is
more ethical to create a baby, kill it and
take its penis. What about that "fetus'"
rights?

Ok, you obviously don't know anything
about the human body and how it really
works... To have the penis actually
mature you would need to wait for the body
of the fetus to go through puberty...
Second of all, you can't just take your
cell and clone it like that, it's banned,
quite expensive (like in the millions or
more...), and with today's technology
almost impossible to do (it would take
many, many embryos... Ehh, ball park
figure.. Maybe more than 200 embryos) not
just that, but you can't keep the clone
asleep until it goes through puberty (it
does have to develop like a normal person
after all). Also, you can't just remove
the penis and let it mature on it's own...
I honestly don't know if you're even
joking.

Unfortunately this guy is not joking. He
is so upset that his parents had his
foreskin removed that he is actually
considering having his penis completely
removed and the another one attached.
Now, I am a woman, but I will say, I
would much rather not take the chance and
not have foreskin! Not because of what
"society" thinks, but just because. Why
in the heck would anyone take that chance,
even if it were legal?
If I ever have a male child I will get him
circumcised. Simply because,
incircumcised penis' are disgusting and I
do not want him to go through that when he
is older. It is much easier as an
infant.
Maybe, I am crazy, but that is how I feel.
And I tell you what. Anyone who is
willing to have his penis removed
completely to try to have one with
forsking put on has some serious
prioritizing to do.

Excuse me, but foreskins are disgusting?
I know it's your opinion, but dont you
think that maybe you should give your son
the chance to have it cut off or not? I
mean it's not like you'll be seeing his
penis after he can put on clothing on his
own which will be like a high % of his
life. It seems to me that everyone with
uncircumsized penises are highly happy
with their foreskin and have actually said
to me "i'd rather die first than take it
off." of course, there's other that want
it removed, and I also know those who did
and then they regretted it. My point is,
maybe you should offer the choice to your
children instead of making permanent
choices like that before they can even
reason.

I didn't mean to be so blunt. I didn't
mean disgusting. It is just very weird
to me. And honestly to me penis' are
pretty ugly anyway, but I do find them
attractive when they are circumcised.
That is just my preference.
I will not give my child the choice simply
because if you do it right at the
beginning it is easier, and boom it is
done. If my newborn could answer me
then I would listen!
And it would not be for me, it would be
for him. It isn't because I don't want
to see it. I don't care either way for
me, it is for him. So, when he gets a
girlfriend later on in life he doesn't
have to be embarassed.
Everyone I have met who had foreskin wants
it taken off, but will not take the chance
now. They wish their parents had just
gotten it done right off of the bat.
That is what I will do if I have a son.
I have never in my life met anyone who
honestly wanted their foreskin back, so I
really don't think my son would be angry
with me for it. Heck he would probably
end up thanking me later on in life.
And also, parents make permanent choices
for their children every day, it is all
part of being a parent. If I thought for
one moment that it is wrong or a bad thing
to do then I would not do it, but it is a
perfectly normal everyday thing. If I
were a man, I would definately want to be
circumcised so that is what I would do for
my child. I am sorry if that offends
anyone, but that is just me.

Penis Sensitivity Posted: 10-21-05 22:46pm
My wife and I are 51 and have a healthy
and exciting sex life. She is gorgeous
and never fails to drive me nuts with
desire and erections are never a problem.
Unfortunately, over the last 5 years or so
it has become more and more difficult to
come to orgasm and my penis has become
less and less sensitive to the point where
it can take a major effort to come to
orgasm.
There was a time when orgasm left my penis
very sensitive to the touch and now that
doesn't happen and it has become only a
tool to satisfy my wife ( lucky for her -
now the tables have turned - i'm joking!!!
). Is this normal? I find that
terribly difficult to believe. Its
pretty sad when we love the heck out of
each other and I can't come to the same
level of extasy during our love making.
I've recently tried hormone injections and
even cialis ( viagra ). The viagra only
increases the erection intensity but
doesn't help with the sensitivity.
my
question is this: basically, when a body
part that has feeling
