>About your sensitivity, I find it quite interesting that after 3 weeks you can already sleep naked without discomfort. That's a pretty big jump from before you got cut huh?
I was sleeping naked before I was cut. Last night was the first night since the surgery, that I slept naked. There was some discomfort, but not more than I could take.>You're saying sexual pleasure has decreased 50%? Can you really tell since you said you barely did anything since the op was done?
I never had sex before the op, and not (yet) after. I masturbated before and after the op. Sexual _pleasure_ (i.e. arousal) will (hopefully) be as good as with a intact foreskin. I wrote that _sensitivity_ had decreased. I miss that sensitivity right now. I hope that a bit of it will come back when I'm fully recovered.
Next time you masturbate, don't just get it over with. Enjoy it. Feel how sensitive your foreskin is, particularly the tip/outermost parts. That's what I'm missing. The skin is gone, and sensitivity with it.>I assume the swelling and such kinda takes away some of the pleasure no?
Swellings do take away pleasure, and perhaps also a bit sensitivity.Your statement is quite disturbing to me. I've been debating wether or not to get the op done all day.. Both sides have pros and cons. :( But 50% decrease is alot, you're really the first "newly cut" person that says it is such a drop in terms of pleasure. From other reports i've read, almost all of them said the sensitivity afterwards was the same as before, minus the over-sensitivity (pain). I certainly hope this will be my case, I don't want to actually lose pleasure, but rather lose the pain.
I'm so 'newly cut', that I'm not a good reference. Give me 2-3 more weeks to recover, and I'll tell how sensitivity really feels.
Sensitivity afterwards will probably depend on the kind of circ. If it is a partial or 'complete'.
Over-sensitivity? I'm not sure that I know what you mean?
It really sounds a bit weird to me, that sensitivity can be the same, _after_ the sensitive skin is removed...>As for my op, I am getting it because of phimosis as well. I've had it for over 10 years now and I am tired of it. I've tried stretching and altho it has been better, i'd much rather have a hassle-free tool without any pain or potential for problems.
OK, you are the best to judge regarding your own case. I just wish that I had known about streching........ no more replies tonight, it's my bedtime now :)
