I think I have “phimosis”. I am a UK resident aged 27. I haven’t bee able to retract my foreskin since I was a very young boy (about 6 I think). It has never really bothered me before but recently I wish I could retract it. I have had a great sex life for over 10 years with no problems but when I have sex without a condom it hurts a little. My girlfriend of 5 years has recently wanted to start having sex without a condom and now I feel as though I should see if there is a “cure” for my condition. When I am flacid I can retract the foreskin fine for cleaning etc but when it is erect it will not come back very far at all and it hurts to force it. I really do not want to have a circumcision so I was wondering if you could help me. I’m willing to try anything really. I have seen “tools” on the net for stretching the foreskin and have read about the steriod cream route. Any info would be gratefully appreciated.
