Mine took over 2 month to fall out on their own. Be patient.

No. And I dont think your partner will appreciate that. I tried and it didnt happen lol

Get them removed from your doctor, never try to remove them yourself. It took 8 weeks for all of mine to fall off except 2 of them. My Urologist removed those.

You’re trying to hurt yourself and the young lady. You cannot have sex with sutures. You need to have patience with them until they all are dissolved/removed. You will need to wait for a few more weeks after they have fallen off. Do not rush back into sex. You would risk getting an infection because the circumcision wound isn’t fully healed.
