Anyone who's been through it as an adult.Could you share your experience of how it compared ? I'm guessing oral sex may be improved ?

I’m 32 years old and was circumcised 8 weeks ago tomorrow

I actually don’t know how I managed all these years without being circumcised, Pre circumcision my foreskin would get stuck half way down the head of my penis and was so tight I’d have to stop then I’d lose my erection, My girlfriend couldn’t go on top of me because it hurt and I’d freak out about it, It was literally just missionary.

Post Circumcision I’ve got a new lease of life it feels so much better come to think of it I don’t even know how I used to ejaculate! We’ve been at it like rabbits and my confidence is back! My erections are so much harder and masterbation is 10x better! This is just personal experience! Considering how my dick looked after circumcision and I had a load of stitches rip out a week in it’s healed so well and no problems now whatsoever! Wish I’d done it years ago!

Hope this is of interest to some out there!

2 years post here. Sex is better for me. I feel alot more. Before I would have to be at a certain angle stimulating the frenulum to orgasm through sex. Now it doesn't matter. One drawback is that I used to last alot longer before though. Masturbation with hands is not as fun anymore and I do it alot less. Pretty much prefer to use a fleshlight.

If sex is better that's the main thing.Are blowjobs better ? I've thought that might be better with no skin in the road ? I've never tried fleshlight how exactly does that go ? Just like a wee fake pussy in n away you go ?

You need lube (and plenty of it) with a Fleshlight - or I do, at any rate!!

Did you find missionary easiest you didn't get any soreness entering or during sex ? Why dyou think that is ? I've always found that with mine and its always created anxiety getting handjobs etc ,feeling in your mind going to hurt or rip.Ive had a coupla experiences in the past I've lost erection strength do you think it's down to foreskin ?

I'm uncircumcised and 32 yers and in doubt whether to get circumcision or not. I'm having a lengthy foreskin and it irritates me.My worries are 1.whether I will loose sensations of my penis after the surgery?2.whether it will take a lot of time to heal? ,I have to get more leaves? 3.whether I can get it done under local anaesthesia 4. Some complains its impossible to get orgasm and other surgery related complications. 5.For how long I have to quit having sex.

Where did you have it done mate ? Did you ask for any particular style ?

Charlie_251 in reply toversa2508

I had it done privately at the Ridgeway in Swindon NHS waiting list is quite some time! Also in regards to your erection loss it’s definitely partially psychological as all I was thinking about was if my foreskin was going to get stuck and then I’d lose erections almost instantly which got me down so much! And I wonder whether the foreskin was so tight that it cut circulation? It’s quite the opposite now! Boners are so much better and I can last longer! Hope this helps

Hi mate. Had mine done in August last year.

I hadn’t enjoyed sex for about 2 years. A quick hand job was my ‘go to’ but since the cut, it’s like a different world. Sex is amazing - I last much longer. I’m much bigger and thicker. And sorry if it’s too much, but I can proper go for it if you know what I mean. Lol. I really like a blowy now too. I’m not so keen on a self hand job so much now, feels like I’m holding someone else and don’t know where to hold it. Haha. But getting one is good although takes a lot longer which is kinda fun too. Just got to mentally get used to the fact I can’t have a 60 second wank 😂

Flesh light has replaced a quickly now - can still have a 60 second result haha

All in all I’ve had more in the last 6 months than 2 years before.

Wish I’d done it ages ago.

What age are you mate n why weren't you enjoying sex before ? Not sure what you mean by bigger n thicker you feel you've gained a bit of size erect ? How dyou mean proper go for it ? I've been wondering if blowjobs would feel better with the glans being totally free of skin getting it the road ? Do you feel you don't miss anything about skin moving back n forth over it ? Why you not enjoying having a wank yourself mate ? Whys it feel any different somebody else doing it ? What exactly are they flashlights is it a bit like a dummy pussy for masterbation instead of using hands ? You find it better is hands not so good after the cut ?

hey mate. I’m 38. I think a mixture of both metal thought process and some pain because my foreskin was tight when I got fully aroused both made me avoid full on sex. Since the cut I’m wanting it more. My head is without doubt bigger all round. Making me feel bigger and thicker. BJ’s don’t feel incredibly different for me, just feel more tongue .

Do I miss my skin ?, I miss a small moment over my glans would make be cum, takes a lot more time and effort now.

Wanking - not so keen now, don’t know how to touch it and enjoy the stroke. I used to wank off quite high over my foreskin and now I have to go much lower, might just be me - but feels odd

Google fleshlight - a few recommendations on here, so went for it. I don’t regret it!

When I refer to ‘go for it’ I mean a heavy session.

I definitely don’t regret it

Hope that answers all your questions mate. 👍

So basically the tightness was playing on your mind ? This is exactly where I'm at.Ive felt I'd like it out the way for some time.Bad luck in past coupla year battling more serious operations has halted it.Hopeing to get fitter n healthier then go for it.

Would you advise that fleshlight for anybody be better for masterbation than your hand ?

I find sex great now and do like oral but you do loose a bit of sensitivity. For hand masturbation I use lube and it’s fantastic 😂

im55 best decision I ever made, should have done it sooner

Sex is great, last longer that way she be more than satisfied and maybe sore better than quick surprise:)

Oral sex for sure is better not only for u but for the partner she don’t have to deal with the turtle neck anymore so she will enjoy it more also

Penis always smells pretty so u got none to worry about u always ready and confident about your manhood

Before circ I couldn’t last to long but now I last more than necessary and orgazem is more intense

Worth the pain I went through for sure though I was not prepared and kept working after Circumcision same day with my penis looking like a yam

Alls good now a year and a half later

Good luck

I foresaw the type of issues Charlie_251 had, and didn't proceed that far with my wife, and only did that after circumcision, as I had phimosis my whole life. Only figured out the phimosis issue after getting naughty with the wife (before she was my wife). Before, to actually have sex I would probably have to use a condom, or really lube up, with condom being the safer route for comfort and avoiding paraphimosis. I also ejaculated pretty fast when masturbating back then - I guess the skin always covering the glans somehow make it stimulated faster during masturbation.

After, the sex is good, I have no comparison for before. Sadly my wife never did oral on me before, so I have no comparison for that. I would say I got more sensitivity and feeling after, since I had phimosis and could never really expose my head before, and am able to last longer after. Masturbating is harder after, because I have to stimulate the penis differently, and because I last longer before I orgasm. I concur that a masturbation tool is better than by hand after circumcision, if not, by hand still works but you need to add some form of lube when I didn't have to before, as it gets rough w/o it and the lube helps with the stimulation you need. I've found you don't need real "lube" lube, though that will work better, but simply liquid body wash will be sufficient for jerking off in the shower.

You mention that you last longer before you orgasm now. Do you notice any changes in your orgasm? (Some say that, after you are circumcised, when you near the climax it tends to arrive suddenly and with less control.) Do you find that your thrusting speeds up more to maximize the pleasurable sensation as you get near to cumming?

sinombre profile image
sinombre in reply toMomento

A bit hard to describe or exactly compare, as I've always had phimosis before, so the comparison isn't as good compared to someone with normal foreskin behavior for before vs after.

But basically, the foreskin always covering my glans kept it stimulated too easy/fast, so that caused my to orgasm sooner. However, I never had penetrative sex before circumcision as my wife held out until marriage, by then I was already circumcised. So can't offer comparison there for before vs after with respect to thrusting and such.

What I can say is after now, the pleasure and sensitivity is from fast (and furious? but mainly fast) thrusting. If I thrust fast for extended duration, more likely to reach orgasm quickly and with not much control as it comes suddenly. To maintain control, I'd have to go slow/paced. Strong thrusting is fine, it is the fast thrusting that can be a problem for controlling climax. So I tend to try saving the fast thrusting towards the end. Sadly, wife enjoys the fast thrusting the most, so I can only give it to her for a short duration compared to slow thrusting. For pleasure, both types of thrusting is pleasurable, although fast thrusting provides slightly more pleasure, but climax happens so fast you don't get to enjoy it that much compared to taking it slow.

Seems like much less precum than before circumcision. Anyone else notice that too?

Jerking off needs lube now. Sex feels good although I have lost lot of sensitivity but this has increased the time I take to cum. Phimosos was a big issue as I was never able to retract foreskin at all. Glad circumcision resolved it

Hi,

My boyfriend was circumcised at 23 but at least half of his glans was still covered. Having had a history of balanitis and wanting to be circumcised for aesthetic reasons; it was not the result he had hoped for. He was circumcised again at 29 (12 years ago) with good results. I didn't know him then but we've talked extensively about it and the following is what he's observed: He's much happier circumcised and the balanitis issues have resolved. He's had no loss of sensitivity and lasts longer sexually. He does use lubrication occasionally during times of heavy sexual activity if he becomes sore. He did miss the sensation of using foreskin to masturbate and found there was an adjustment period. Everyone is different, of course. I wish you well.

Are you female ? Why did he get it at 23 and what went wrong that half his glans was still covered ?

procut profile image
procut in reply toversa2508

I'm female. He had it done at 23 due to a lifelong problem with balanitis and for aesthetics. As far as his glans still being covered; there were no complications during the procedure. Whether by choice or lack of skill; the doctor circumcised him that way much to his surprise.

That sounds like one of those surprises in life we could do without!! But it's good news that he had the further surgery and is OK now. :)

versa2508 in reply toprocut

Aesthetic reasons not my priority but if getting it I guess I'd rather get the most aesthetically pleasing look.and I'd say frenulum removed would look better.Also I'm thinking it eliminates any possible tight skin .

My frenulum is my favourite part of my penis. I’d hate to lose it.
