Alexander (remarkable
anecdote)
Research was made through all available medical journals 1920 - 2000 in English French German Italien and Spanish
this revealed ONLY the above references to possible sexual problems connected with phimosis. This shows that very little resesarch has been done on this subject - a seeming taboo on sexual influences. The anthropological texts of Ploss and Bryk show far more appreciation of the sexual influences of phimosis.

To update Medline Studies
To search for phimosis - (to avoid penicillin you need to ask for) peni* BUT NOT penic* AND phimo*
To search for frenulum - frenul* OR frenum* - gives practically everything - linguistically you need freno* OR frenu*
OR freni* OR fraenum OR frein
- You will find many references to the tongue (lingua) so either specify AND peni* -or- BUT NOT ling*
