I Have to Be Circumcised :( Posted: 05-23-07 08:32am
My uroligist appointment finally came
round. I first went to the docters about
tight foreskin and problems with the
frenulum breve(banjo string) so he then
referred me to urology. The waiting time
from now to the operating is 3 months.
The urolgist took one look and said I need
to be circumcised I was kinda exspecting
just a snip of the banjo instead but I
guess not.
I asked how much they will cut off he said
enough to expose the entire head of the
penis but this seems like to much I would
have preferred like a cm off or just yano
the tip were its tight but he wants to do
it all off.
This will be very strange for me as going
to the toilet will be different as I
usually have some skin to hold onto at the
tip but after the operation I won't. Plus
my foreskin dosn't come back when erect so
I don't need any lube or anything to
masterbate but now I will have to find a
whole new technique or masterbating. Plus
the head of my penis will be very
sensitive on my clothes. N its just gonna
look different. I don't even no how its
gonna look will it just look like a penis
with the foreskin pulled back all the
time.
I really not pleased about this tbh.

i dont know about frenulum breve, but for
a tight foreskin (phimosis) doctors would
normally just advise stretching exercises.
is your case so sever that these didnt
work? have you tried them? you really
should exhaust all possibilities before
resorting to circumcision. it sounds
like you really dont want to have the
circumcision done. dont let a doctor make
rash decisions for you.

Whenever a doctor suggests a surgery (or
any procedure), especially one you do not
want, get a second opinion. So go to
another urologist and ask him what he
suggests and why. After you've gotten his
opinion, then talk to him about your
concerns and your desire to keep more
skin.
As for your other concerns. You could
still masturbate without lube. I'm
circumcised and rarely use lube, because
my skin is still loose enough to pull over
the crown. I'd imagine you'd be sensitive
with clothes like you said. To know what
it'd look like, just look for pics on the
net, though yes it'd essentially be like
if you had your skin pulled back all the
time. Opinions about how it looks are
purely personal (and societal), so whether
a girl likes it or not depends on her.
Most men in the US are circumcised so
chances are you won't have a problem with
girls finding it unattractive.
As to how you view it, that's a totally
different story. People tend to get used
to the way they look and changes are weird
to say the least.
Anyway, I'd say talk to another doctor and
get his opinion and then talk about your
concerns. Also bring up tightness. I'd
think it wouldn't be a big problem in
adulthood circumcision since the doctors
know the size of the penis they're working
with. However, some circumcisions at birth
end up being too tight when they grow
older.

Hi, yeah I've been to the docters a total
of 3 times about it in the passed. The
first guy gave me some cream to like
loosen up the skin and I had to stretch
to. The second docter said the cream idea
was daft and kinda just said to keep
trying to pull it back in the bath. I new
to keep tryin to stretch it anyways as I
used to alot. I only goes so far with the
whole stretching thing and the more i did
it the more the skin would tear or become
sore. I did make alot of progress but it
kinda came to a big hault and it just
won't stretch anymore without spliting.
I'm 20 now but when I was like 12 my
foreskin couldn't even come back at all
when not erect but now it comes back with
ease but it kinda rolls back and not slide
back. It dose the same now when erect when
I pull it back it just rolls back which
pulls on the frenelum so tighly.
The frenulum however never stretched over
the years and that causes me the most
pain. The docter just bluntly said look
its only seems like its going to keep
causing you problems and eventually the
frenulum will more than likely rip plus
the scars I have from the tears he just
recommened the circumcision. I pulled the
forskin back and put a condom on and after
about 15 minutes when I took the condom on
the blood vessall had all swolen up around
the frenulum so thats when I just realised
I needed to get it sorted.
There are small scars on the top of my
foreskin from were it has teared and
heeled but usually heeled tighter which
lead me back to sqaure one usually.
I guess if they leaked me abit of "slack"
so that I can masterbate without lube then
it will be fine lol. I told the uroligist
that the foreskin dosn't come back when
erect and about the problem with the
condom and he just saidwelll the more
reason to get it cercumsized then.
My bro said "well atleast you can get some
proper head and not have to worry about
the foreskin being in the way"

Gamma Linoleic Acid oil is a good
moisturizer and makes skin healthy and
flexible which might help it stretch if
you want to keep trying. You can find it
in Borage or Primrose oil. Most health
stores concentrate on carrying Flax oil,
so you'd probably have to order it over
the internet.
