Lost Length After Circumcision

It has been 10 months (yes, months) since my circumcision. I definitely lost about 1". My woman is used to me and doesn't care one way or another. But if I were to be with a new woman/women in the future, I'm going to be more self-conscious about my length. And of course none are going to believe me that I was once an inch longer.

I really thought a circumcision would just be cutting off the foreskin and nothing else. But I'm convinced that it is the stitching that surgeons do that cause the length to be inhibited, especially for guys who are growers like me.

If you’ve had too much skin removed it will have an impact but an inch seems a lot. And it will stretch in time

No man wants to lose length. It’s good you are still having a satisfying sex life with your partner though.

Yup, sex is good and everything just the same.

I noticed that I loss an inch too . Specially when flaccid . But I am sure I gained more girth and that now kind of balance out . Your Dick looks more like a Cock when it’s circumcised. I am happy with the new look and girth .

Eh, my cut was a little jagged. It is not a nice, smooth, circular cut as I was hoping. But I don't dwell on it anymore.

Me too it seems, although only a month as passed, I lost more than an inch, maybe it will get back, my entire hand covers the head and shaft, It was average size before, didn’t really measure but currently really small, looks thicker a bit too.It is criminal they do not mention any of this

Yea I've learned way more on this site and from experience AFTER the surgery than anything my doctor. I had a very dismissive, short-tempered doctor who didn't like to answer my questions. In fact, I reported him to the State Board but nothing happened. Doctors need to be more forthright and detailed in what men are getting into if they choose to get cut.

For most men it isn’t a concern if they’re above average, some are average some are a bit below that even, it varies… I hope it gets normal because my size was around average before the operation, also when flaccid and I sit, my penis glans get pushed a bit into the loosed shaft skin, looks weird, I’m a grower and my flaccid is really short

I'm six months out and having the same issue. I'm hoping as well that in time it'll get better, for me the frenulum area seems particularly tighter / more irritable, which I hope continues to heal in time.

Yea, let me know what happens.

UPDATE. I measured when I was very hard and I'm about 5.6"-5.7" with the ruler pressed against the pubic bone. I used to make it to 6.0". Hopefully I can eventually get back there but really my current length isn't horrible.

I really hope I don’t lose an inch I’m insecure enough as it is currently on day 3 since my circumcision

Hey. I definitely lost about 1/4th of an inch (0.635 cm) in my full erection. I'm very small when flaccid but I am a decent grower when erect, and I am positive the surgeon removed too much skin. My wife, however, claims I didn't lose anything and it's just an illusion because I had the foreskin before. Sex is fine. If you did lose a little, I am sorry. You just have to accept. But hoping everything is okay with you. 6 weeks is very early and you're still in recovery from the surgery.

Not what you're looking for?
