Does circumcision always reduce penis size?

Had my circumcision done recently and I just rea up that it can decrease your penis size (even drastically). It looks pretty normal flaccid but I'm not sure how it looks with an erection because I've been avoiding them. Anyone know if this is true?

I have lost over an inch. Some people have not. It’s been 6months now and I’m hoping thing go back to normal. Let me know if you notice anything with your procedure.

What kind of cut you get? I hear this is more typical for those who opt for tight circs as you removed the skin necessary to grow out completely. The length underneath is still there though, as that's determined by completely different factors than skin and it isn't touched during the circ process.

I guess I would say I have a high medium cut. Lots of skin when flaccid to the point it covers the head but then again. I suffer from buried penis. When erect, I feel here is not enough skin because it pulls on my balls.

i personally think it’s an illusion, though on my side my penis looked bigger but when i measured it is was still the same size as before...

i think the foreskin can sometimes make it look bigger or if it’s too much it looks smaller

Hope so.

I'm not too worried about the flaccid state. I hope it doesn't reduce my erect size. I'm wondering if scar tissue also affects this (less elasticity).

I guess foreskin restoration/stretching would get me back the length .

I'm my case I did experience some length loss in the first 4 months but back to regular size now. I actually feel like it's thicker now
