I've had sex three times now, all a few months apart and every time my banjo string (frenulum) has torn and started bleeding. would getting it cut be a good idea? and if so would it cost being in nz.

any help on the issue would be appreciated.

It's not a good thing when you end up bleeding after sex. I don't know what the health insurance coverage is in NZ, but it sounds like you have a legitimate medical issue that should be taken care of.

Hi, yes you should see your doctor for a referral it can be quite painful and stressful for both parties when you start bleeding. I used to get little cuts like that which would heal but it would scar then and tear again eventually my frenulum broke. I had an underlying condition LS which started at my frenulum and spread out so I think it's important you get it checked. you could have a frenuloplasty this would help to resolve your problem and if your foreskin is not tight you probably would not need a full circumcision a frenuloplasty is where they release the frenulum it's not a big operation I don't know what the health system is like in your country. Hope that helps

I would just go to the doctors mate see what he says you start pulling this and that you might do more damage than good shame your not based in the Uk as you would get free treatment on the Nhs i don't have a clue on New Zealanda health services.

How do you stretch the frenulum?

I understand, but is stretching towards the body stretch the frenulum? Or is it better to stretch it only away from your body?

Yes, thank you. I was just thinking that in some cases toward your body might work, but it’s important to be careful when doing so.
