Thanks for being honest and open about your experience. I think what you mentioned is most men's concerns about circumcision, whether it will change the sensation or how much you feel.

I had undergone a circumcision at the age of 7 under the recommendation of my pediatrician. When I became an adult, I had an issue of a quite large suture tunnel. As an adult a urologist tried to correct the issue, but ended up giving me several stitches in the area (to prevent infection according to him), which opened up anyway. I had lots of pain and scar tissue. I saw another urologist who informed me that the original circumcision was not a good one and identified 3 other suture tunnels that I was not even aware of at the time. That urologist told me that I had been through enough trauma and to just makes sure that I keep the area very clean. Acupuncture and taking serapeptase helps with the penile pain and scar tissue. Vigorous exercise also helps with blood flow to the area and preventing the penile pain.

[@Joe_Laughs]

Part of what made circumcision so popular in the United States is mothers would pay too much attention to their boys touching themselves as you did, which is normal childhood body exploration, & how most boys in the world learn on their own, when & how far back they can retract their foreskin. During the Victorian era, Christian mothers' unfounded concerns over boys touching their own bodies was a big component of why the medical industry's predatory medical practice of circumcision was so sellable to the populous. The medical industry was able to sell circumcision as a service to prevent such bathroom activities, that the medical industry claimed to cause all kinds of psychosis, blindness, & illness, in the Anglophone countries, United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, & New Zealand. The other Anglophone cultures have tended to eliminate or drastically reduce infant circumcision from medical practice for the nightmare that it is. In the United States, publicly funded medicaid pays for male infant circumcision in 38 states, all the associated & collateral NICU services, revival circumcision, surgical corrections for meatal stenosis, & so forth. At the same time, most states have laws prohibiting any type of female genital cutting or pricking, & United States litigators attempt to claim we are not a culturally biased nation.

Not only do I have reduced sensitivity as an adult, I still remember in the immediate years after it that there was still scabbing and scarring around the location of the old foreskin's cut point. In one particular instance, I remember pulling at an old scab, and an entire vein pulled right out with it! Yet more trauma to remember. Unfortunately when I was growing up, government health care still covered such procedures as legitimate medical procedures, even though there was no real health issue to do it, just religious tradition. The government no longer covers such religious procedures anymore, too late for me. This is a barbaric religious tradition that needs to be banned by all governments in the world, especially the ones that are theological in nature.

At age 30 and again at age 64, four doctors (two dermatologists, one urologist and one internal medicine doc) all prescribed circumcision following lab tests (age 30) and one biopsy (age 64). They were all wrong, including the biopsy lab. Cleanliness was never in question, and culture dishes never grew anything. After some long, drawn-out testing of my own by age 31, I figured that problem was a fixed drug eruption. I abandoned two specific prescription meds and haven't had that problem again. At age 64 dermatologist suspected balanitis but biopsy lab said psoriasis. She prescribed expensive psoriasis cream with serious side effects, which I refused to use when she refused a follow-up explanation. She wasn't correct on this either, and apparently neither was the biopsy lab as I never had psoriasis before or since. I haven't figured out what the latter problem was, but as I turn 73 I haven't had either problem recur. My conclusion is too often doctors get snip-happy and prescription-happy if they see a foreskin.

As an MD, I could not have provided a better descriptive narrative. Because United States medicine is pay per service, the scenario you describe is rampant. There's lots of prescription & procedure caused or induced pathology, & not everyone has the bearing & intelligence to self explore & determine as you did, because they trust a medical industry that certainly has not earned such trust.

@@MrmerryPippin-tw6rv The two medicines that caused rash, totally unrelated to each other as far as I can tell, were tetracycline and butazolidin. Tetracycline is the one that left no doubt that the rash four decades ago was a drug reaction. When an orthopedist prescribed butazolidin for shoulder pain, I abandoned it immediately when the penis rash started, so I don't have as much self testing for that drug. I just abandoned it. I think butazolidin may now be off the approved list for humans. The biopsy site healed very quickly and never caused a problem. The cream I stupidly bought but wisely refused to use following the faulty psoriasis diagnosis was Protopic.

Actually foreskin has a purpose to protect sensitive glans, without foreskin it's always irritated by clothes. In my case I had tight foreskin when I was teenager but then doctor explained me that I need to stretch it and open glans regularly, after I did that for some time it was easily coming back and forth and stayed that way so I could decide if I want to keep my glans open or closed. I used to keep it open for few years and I can say, this is distractive, glans still was sensitive to clothes and distracted me often. Now I keep my glans closed under foreskin and its much more comfortable, it opens itself when erected.

[@wiseberr]

@@OsakaJoe01 Actually, Argantonis speaks a partial truth and so do you. I would say even if the whole clitoris is not removed, removing the tip of the clitoris is a big deal. And I felt the point of Argantonis’s comment was that the clitoris, and not the female version of the foreskin (clitoral hood) is operated on in a “female circumcision”, so you should not compare male and female circumcisions. There ARE, unfortunately, ways of removing the whole clitoris with a deeper and more severe/invasive surgery, though I have never seen this done (thankfully). I am an OBGYN who unfortunately has seen many women from Africa with female circumcisions done in their home country, or female genital mutilation/cutting. If anyone would like to educate themselves, they can read about the types at the World Health Organization’s website. There are generally 4 types of cutting, some that specifically remove some or all of clitoris, some that remove the labia, and some that close off part of the vaginal opening. The type of cutting done is often cultural/regional, but I have seen the [tip of the] clitoris removed a large majority of the time in my patients. Regardless, female “circumcisions” are nothing like male circumcisions and when they are mentioned are generally NEVER talking about just removing the female equivalent of foreskin (clitoral hood). The benefits that Dr. Malik presents for male circumcision virtually do not exist for female circumcision (with extremely rare exception, like phimosis which is similar to paraphimosis). I would say it is best to debate the benefits/risks of male circumcisions in a completely different conversation from female circumcisions.

Pretending to be unbiased when she's using the most biased information and the illegal exploitation of Africans through experimentation. Just like all those circumcised Africans they told would be safe from HIV, who ended up contracting it from false sense of security. The only way the circumcision helped was by forcing them to be celibate though the height of the pandemic. Once the circumcised group caught up to the uncircumcised group they pulled the plug on the study and used that 60% less likely figure they got out of it. No doubt in my mind the 40 studies she mentioned were carried out in flawed ways as well. Like I'm betting they compared the first ejaculation the circumcised group had in 3 months because of the surgery forcing them to be celibate, and compared it to the regular ejaculations the uncircumcised group was having and found that they both got relief. Circumcision studies are always carried out without taking many other factors into account.

I'm also learning that consequently, there are over 100 deaths annually, just in the US alone... Also, when healthy tissue has been removed in the absence of any immediate medical need it raises concerns regarding medical ethicality.

Circumcision is absolutely unnecessary in infants (babies, newborns) and healthy young children who cannot consent or decide. It is a terrible and cruel male gnital mutilation that must be rejected, prohibited and punished. Circumcision damages the glans for life. Circumcision has no benefits or advantages in healthy babies and children because the foreskin is the best skin because it has many important and beneficial sexual and protective functions, thousands of nerve endings, veins and blood capillaries, therefore the foreskin must be kept intact and wash the glans in each bath or shower to prevent infections such as balanitis or urinary tract. Do not circumcision. Circumcision destroy your sexual pleasure and sensitivity because circumcision dries out and keratinizes the glans. Clean penis during bath, after urination and sex to prevent the risk of any problem. Use condoms to protect HIV and STD. Phimosis is not a disease to worry about unless there is any irritation, infection of the foreskin. Any irritation, infection, urinary tract infection is solve by medicine. Many people live with phimosis and enjoy sex life. Paraphimosis may go away on its own or solve by gently press the swelling foreskin and push forward. Doctor may suggest circumcision because of their bloody money business. But do not circumcision. Again saying clean penis during bath, after urination and sex to prevent the risk of any problem. The foreskin is a healthy natural tissue that provides protection, lubrication, pleasure and benefits for both sexual partners therefore the foreskin must be kept intact. Circumcision is an unnecessary and dangerous technique (on Newborns) that does not provide any real benefic. Fortunately, in Spain, most newborns are not circumcised. I read about how the payment system works in the United States. Merely the procedure is carried out in most cases without any medical reason. The ony reason why doctors and hospitals carry up the circumcision is because they profit from it since it involves a lot of money and the insurers take care of the costs, it's basically a business. Please Americans, don't circumcise your sons. It is a procedure in which the child goes through a horrible pain and experience. There are more risks than benefits and scientifist studies in most countries of the world(except USA and Isreal) have stated that "there are no scientific reasons to perform such a technique unless it is for medical reasons such as phimosis" or "balanitis". And the supposed "benefits" do not justify such an intervention. If the pediatrician recommends you that it is for the "good of the child" becuase he Will have less likely to get infections or penis cancer penis thanks to "circumcision". It's a lie, basically because in Europe there are only 5% of circumcised men and the incidence of sexually transmitted diseases and penis cancer is much lower than in the States where it is done in most cases. In addition, the foreskin secretes lubrication that allows sexual relationships be pleasurable and not only , there are millions of nerves and blood vessels in foreskin. If It is cut, they'll loose sensebility in that zone when they get older. ADVICE: In the even that a nurse tells you that she is taking you child to the OR in order to be circumcised, if she does that without your inform consent, let her know that you are going to sue her for medical negligence because it is a FELONY. Many doctors and nurses are aware that this procedure (although they do not only do it with circumcision but also with many medical procedures) means a considerable amount of money for the hospital. A circumcision in your country costs around 2000 dollars. Your healthcare is a business. Be aware of that.

The idea that circumcision could improve an already healthy intact penis is completely false popular cultural & medical propaganda. Adult men who get their penis circumcised often claim they got it done for "medical reasons," although their penis was completely normal prior to circumcision. Real reasons they get it done is for aesthetic sexual preference (usually someone with homosexual tendencies), cultural assimilation or compliance (For example, some Mexican guys whose family & culture did not circumcise, who lives in the United States where lots of American males have circumcised penises, & some girls boast they prefer circumcised penis. These guys often claim they got circumcised for "medical reasons," but would never had "needed" to get circumcised if they lived in Mexico.), & a few because their sex partner preferred circumcised penis (mistake for any man to cut off any body part or get vasectomy for any partner, ever, but our feminized English speaking culture admires such male self-change & sacrifice). Anyway, many guys who get their penis circumcised for these reasons eventually come to regret that decision, some of them have regrets soon after. Rather than admit their mistake & discouraging & preventing other guys from making the same mistake, they instead promote their "circumcision decision," & encourage as many others to do the same. This describes one of many mechanisms that contribute to the continued perpetuation & propagation of American circumfettish cultural pathology.

I really think it was a cop-out answer to say that the nerve endings on the foreskin are similar to nerve endings elsewhere in the body and therefore don't have any impact on sensation. That's like saying losing your fingertip won't affect sensation in that finger. The penis is, let's be honest, only so large. The amount of foreskin removed significantly affects the amount of surface area there is on the penis. The nerve endings in the foreskin are also quite different from the nerve endings in the glans and on the shaft of the penis, so ACTUALLY there are some key, fundamental differences in sensation after circumcision (obviously depending on how much tissue is removed as well).

This is entirely nonsense. Spurious post-hoc reasoning resulting from cultural bias regarding the foreskin in an attempt to morally justify mutilation. Water-lock? How did water "infiltrate" the foreskin initially given the premise that water trapped under the foreskin cannot escape? Where did this magical water come from? If tissue close to a orifice is justification for amputation of tissue, women are far more deserving of the practice given the relative surface area of tissue surrounding (not one) but two orifices. Additionally women are far more prone to viral and bacterial infections than men. If infections are justification to mutilate a population by birthright we are absolutely discriminating against women by not performing FGM. Double standards, hypocrisy, magical air-tight foreskins with magically appearing water. That doctor is a hack.

The facility where Dr. Malik works does not do infant/adolescent circumcisions; they require the owner of the penis to be the one signing the consent form. To be clear, there is a marked DIFFERENCE between circumcising the UNDELVEOPED penis of an infant/adolescent and circumcising the DEVELOPED penis of an adult. Circumcision is, by definition, an "alteration" and a permanent and irreversible procedure that DOES affect/impact intended form and function. Mess with body parts that are not developed or fully developed and there will be retarded development and arrested functioning. The common damages of circumcision (i.e., skin-bridges, horrible or misaligned circumcision scars [offsetting the Raphe], twisting/curving in any direction, early onset of E.D., etc.) have become "normalized" over the years.

I'm guessing that sensitivity is lower as it took a while for me to climax during my early sexual years (on the plus side, my partner had a great time).

[@ZaydDepaor]

@Jayson Argonaut You are ignoring all the proven medical benefits, all the scientific data of no difference and all the stats of those whose sex life it has improved.

[@ZaydDepaor]

​@Jayson Argonaut No, the benefits are factual...atheist/anti-religious/anti-monotheist ranting and selectivism doesn't count. Look up the medical journals, free of your anti-religious emotions. The foreskin harbours filth and disease. Millions of people have been circumcised from thousands of years, they are having sexual intercourse and they are functional...many men have their lives improved by it in many ways, crying against that and lying against that, immature, emotionally driven denialism doesn't change the reality.

I thought about it and honestly the appearances are both the same when hard but then you'll lose the gliding function. It's mostly a cosmetic change that could alter sensitivity. I think I'll keep the sheath to my sword lol

I was circumcised at age four when my family imegrated to the USA. In Hungary where I was born it was not a common practice. Since I remember how that felt ( even with anesthesia!) and knowing the procedure is done to infants with out anesthesia. I vowed no son of mine will go through that torture on my watch. Hence both of my son's are uncircumcised. Taught both boys how to clean themselves just as I was taught. No problems and they are grown men now.

Many studies have been published on the risks and benefits of circumcision. Conclusion: every study conducted in Europe show no net benefit, and every study conducted in America show overall a small net benefit. European health authorities advise against circumcision in infants who have no abnormality of the prepuce, while American authorities say it is up to parents to decide.

[@thumplife792]

"parents" you mean sole discretion of the mother. The father, who actually has a penis, has no say. It's all about if the mother thinks an uncircumcised penis looks gross or not. Apparently that's what is really important! Safety and personal choice take a backseat to that.

The sensitivity cut or uncut still there even the brush from boxers can get you going that's sensitivety you dont lose any sensitivety or performance Both same thing But it's not like women will leave you because you are cut or uncut same pleasure I mean they'res ways to make people pay same as ways to have it fixed back the way you want it and be same as it was. I prefer being uncut Like I said before People think that you lose sensitivety or have less sensitivety or performance that's not true but it should not be done regardless I mean now if that person didn't want that done you better pray you can fix it docters and surgeons for the individuals that didn't want it they get furious rightfully so they should be doctors wont tell you how emotional unstable or furiously pissed off a individual will be come there just so into what they think is best. Dont forget there are those some of my friends for instance who are looking to have reversed because some people dont like how the option was not left for them to decide Have same people that snip ya reverse it😉

[@Joe_Laughs]

Prepuce foreskin contains vasculature, nerve endings, dartos fascia & smooth muscle, & 2 physiologic mechanisms for erection, both of which are less significant for younger men & gradually become more significant as men age. Neither of these mechanisms relate to sexual climax. Sexual climax, orgasm & ejaculation are sympathetic autonomic mechanisms, & not parasympathetic autonomic physiology. Sexual climax, orgasm & ejaculation are sympathetic autonomic mechanisms are usually the main considerations male research subjects focus, discuss, & report about. (1) Penis erections depend on parasympathetic autonomic nervous routes, have multiple mechanisms, & require adequate nitric oxide production in penis vasculature. Endothelial glycocalyx in vasculature facilitates nitric oxide production. Nitric oxide is necessary for erection physiology & travels proximally to affect penis veins to facilitate erections. Because circumcision removes vasculature in prepuce foreskin, circumcision proportionally decreases penis nitric oxide production capacity. A portion of neurovascular system is cut away with circumcision because the prepuce foreskin contains portions of the neurovascular systems in continuity with the rest of the penis. Nitric oxide producing vasculature endothelium glycocalyx is cut away with circumcision. As men age, the amputated portion of endothelial glycocalyx can eventuate a significant nitric oxide producing deficit. (2) Prepuce foreskin has abundant specialized nerve endings, including Meisner’s. Specialized nerve endings conduct & relay various sensory information that facilitate & contribute to reflexive erection mechanisms. The neuron-transmitted stimulus is not necessarily pleasure sensory, or consciously felt or sensed by the male, & is instead parasympathetic (especially touch) sensory input for touch reflexive erection, as opposed to, for example, visual stimulation. Glans head sensory physiology of a circumcised penis cannot be as acute as natural intact penis. Gross observation demonstrates that circumcised penis glans head is dry & hyper-keratinized compared to glans head of intact penis because the prepuce foreskin is not there to keep mucous membranes protected & moist. Dry hyper-keratinized glans head of circumcised penis is less capable of natural sensory physiology, or mucosal mucosal interface with sexual partners. Lots of men with intact penises can attain reflex erections via touch stimulation of their prepuce foreskin & some can achieve climax orgasms via foreskin stimulation alone. Therefore, while sympathetic orgasmic response can be maintained after circumcision, physical contact & sexual mucosal surface interaction & communication, physiologically cannot occur between partners as nature intended. Some of the parasympathetic sexual mechanisms are irretrievably amputated with circumcision. No medical research & report studies can deny the natural physiology, & still some medical researchers make claims that circumcision has no effect on sexual physiology. However, some people tend to believe the medical research rather than natural anatomy & physiology.

For religion reasons, I had it in my childhood. Now I'm 24 and not even a single time I had any issue with it. No scars no problem with sensation or anything else. We were also taught to clean it everytime we urine and since there is no foreskin covering it, it'll stay dry throughout the day which eliminates problems with bacteria.
