Considering Circumcision

[Silverhawk87]

Hi guys,

i am considering circumcision since 8 years now and i am 36 years old.

My problem is fear of course. Mostly, the fear of how it will change my sexuality.

The foreskin of my penis since when i was born was bothering me since it caused me a lot of itch even thought i was taking care of it a lot.

At one point of my life, when i was 24, i began to find methods to keep my foreskin pulled back and i found out the the itches decreased to 0. My foreskin keratinised completely and i was happy with this momentary solution.

However the methods i use are too "inconvenient" for me because it takes me time to make them to keep my foreskin back. For those who know these methods i use the "spoon" method.

At this point i also want to mention my sexual life when i have partners. I mostly have a premature ejaculation there's no way for me to control. I see there is no method for me to resist.

So the reasons i am considering circumcision are:

1) to decrease my itches to 0 and not have to use any methods i mentioned, since i like the feel of having my head out

2) maybe have a better chance in my sexuality life

The first reason i am considering is is the 1) of course. Because i know i am tired of it for all these years.

For the 2) is a another hope in maybe if sexuality will be better.

At this point i want to talk about my fear. I fear of how much my masturbation life will change and all this.

Has anyone of yoy been in the same situation? What do you suggest?

I think you will be relieved if you get a Circumcision and resolve your foreskin itching issues. As far as premature ejaculation, there is a chance that you’d lose some sensitivity after the procedure and last longer, in my case, I last about the same time. I lost sensitivity while flaccid but once erect, my sensitivity is back. Masturbation will be different if you get circumcised, a lot depends on the cut you go for, you might need lube or adjust to a different masturbation technique. I got mine 4 months ago, I’m 31 and I’m happy with the turnout

7 weeks in. It’s Journey to recovery, I have had sex now and the sensation where I have cum really quick in the past has gone. I can go for hours now… tbf I haven’t even ejaculated from sex yet. I’m sure I will with time but it’s different for sure.

I’m still healing in the sense that it’s still abit swollen and uncomfortable at times when erect. But it’s ok, I’m glad I done it and day by day it’s getting better.

In your case I would 100% get it done buddy to get rid of the itching for a start. And I think your sex life will only get better as is definitely takes away a lot of sensitivity. Stop worrying about things to much, go get it done and after a few months you will be glad.

Did you get circumcised or did you find out what was causing the itching?
