15 years old, my foreskin is still attached to the head.

Hello I am 15 years old and I have noticed for the past few years that I cannot pull my foreskin back because it is attached to the head. I'm really scared an unsure why. I have only recently gone through puberty I hit it at a late stage and not sure if I have "finished" puberty. Maybe this could be the reason? I am also too embarrassed to talk to my mum about it or anyone else and I always worry.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

15 is not really late, there is no set age for puberty. Try gentle stretching in the bath or shower. At your age this should not really be a problem unless it causing you pain. Do not worry about it and see what happens as you get older. I was in my Twenties before I could 'pull back'. If you are in discomfort you could make your own appointment with your Dr but you will need a chaperone, this is just someone who stays in the room while the Doc examines you and can be an adult you know or someone from the surgery. Do not worry, they just stand in the background and do not get involved in the exam, unless they a Doctor. Nothing to be embarrassed about. Been there, done it.

Good luck

Thank you jaglad. I don't think i've so called "Finished" puberty but I will wait until im around 18/20 and if not I will go to the doctors. Unless that's way too late for it
