Alternatives to surgery ? (if any)

Written by ant at 21 Aug 2003 18:31:44:

My foreskin is tight and will not fully retract when erect. (23 male)

I can reract it fully when flacid but i can see a tight "ring" of skin around the shaft when i do so.

The top of the foreskin has the white patches and small slits (probably from over-masturbation/sex).

I have been to a specialist (NHS) who said the only option was circumcision, which I do not want.

I mentioned steriod cream and he said not to bother trying.

Surely trying cream first is better than cutting the skin off without trying !

I have read that 80-90% of cases of tight foreskin can be treated with cream and stretching but so many sites say so many things.

Please can someone recommend a cream to try using before I have to go under the knife !

Also can someone tell me the difference between BXO and the white skin at the top of the penis ?

Can BXO be treated with creams ?

The reason i dont want to lose the foreskin is that i have little sensation during sex at the moment and have been told that a lot of sensation is lost once circumcised.

Yours

Ant
