>ok this is my first post on this sort of site, i'd appreciate some advice. I have never had sex and have only just started to open up about it to people, i have had a tight foreskin throughout my life, but since adulthood i have been able to pull it back when soft, but it hurts when i try it when its erect. My glans is so sensitive, its not pleasurable when someone else masturbates me, in fact it usually hurts, i use my own techniques. i have tried to have sex but i lose my erection shortly after penetration. i am about to see a specialist because i think i might need a circumcision, as my problems seem to stem from my foreskin etc. I have tried stretching but it hurts too much. Am i doing the right thing? Has anyone had an experience like mine?
Yes, I've had an experience somewhat similar to yours, except that my foreskin was completely unretractable. On very bad advice and without thinking through my situation, logically, I stupidly acquiesced to a circumcision. I've regretted it ever since. A bit of simple, patient stretching and my foreskin would have been fully functional.Your glans is "so sensitive"? Genitally mutilate yourself with a circumcision and you'll eventually lose almost all sensitivity, both in the highly sensitive foreskin, and in the glans penis, itself, which will dry out and keratinize, just as did mine. By that time your only recourse would be to restore your foreskin. If you think that stretching an intact foreskin to permit retraction takes time and patience...try stretching a new one. How many years do you suppose it takes?
