15 years of thinking - operation booked

I have my operation in October (36 yr old) after one a decade of thinking about it and dealing with phimosis I think I have gathered the guts now for this. Anyone having operation around the same time please get in touch- would be great to have someone going through the same experience to talk about the recovery post the ops.

Thank you

Great - how bad is the sensitivity - how did you not masturbate for 6 weeks ? I find that so difficult to imagine - I do it daily usually

Ok thanks for the reply. I am sure it will get better in time - good to know that it isn’t as if not masturbating kills you or makes your testosterone levels so high that you can’t resist

How are you now - is it healing - how did you deal with the sensitivity.

7 weeks in and sensitivity still there, not too much but it’s still hanging around. Frenulum area is still swollen, but everyone says it can take months for that to heal properly. I had no choice tho he to do it, sever phimosis.

Hey yes have had a decent sex life but always worried about pulling back the skin and the pain associated with it - it has spoiled sex many a time. Am married and have kids. I’ll be going to a clinic in London. What about you

Phimosism in reply to Caleb61999

Great to hear - was your fore skin retractable pre operation? Were you always worried about it being pulled down and the pain while having sex

Caleb61999 profile image
Caleb61999 in reply to Phimosism

No it wasn’t. I was always on edge about it! Yes yes and yes! I could only ever use a condom and not go without one.

Phimosism in reply to Caleb61999

Sounds like my situation- I have been thinking about this since I was in My early 20s now I am 36 with a family and kids - finally have the courage to do this - recovery might be longer due to age. Which underwear do you use. Any painkillers or creams you used to reduce scar Mark and keep the tip moist post op ? When did you remove the stiches - what option did you go for low cut high cut etc ? What do you recommend - what would you have done differently now that your operation is done ? Thank you

Man if you could have sex without a condom you are better off then me lol.

Definitely wear two pairs of undies to the surgery. Then tight underwear is best. But walk around in the nude if you have to. That’s what I did for the first couple weeks. They will give you cream at hospital to stop infections. The stitches fell out themselves, I didn’t get the option lol my dr just did it, but whatever he did it worked great! Man you can’t do anything different just I would say I would want to stop stressing as much as I was bro. It’s more of a mental game until it is done. Then it’s just sensitivity.

Best decision of my life! I wish i did it sooner!
