I really want to get circumcised but don't know how it will affect me in the long run...?
Question:
Answers:
One thing I've noticed in my experience talking with people is that it affects everybody differently. There are some people who were circumcised as adults and very happy; others (more that I know of) who were circumcised and lost sensitivity and feeling (after all, they do remove nerve endings in a sensitive part). There's no way to tell which will apply to you, but in general I would say not to do it unless something is wrong with your penis how it is already (and really wrong, and you think it can be fixed by circumcision). After all, it's non-reversible. It's a big thing. And most circumcised people never experienced the other side of the coin so they don't know what it's like. You could have terrible long-term affects like a drying up of the glans and less feeling and worse sex. But some people have reported that it gets better.
However, these are the things that should not impact your decision:
- cleanliness, if you can wash under your foreskin every day then it's fine
- what people say girls like - most of the girls in the world are having sex with uncircumcised men, as 80% of men are uncut, so really they shouldn't complain - personally as a female I prefer uncircumcised and that's how almost every young man is where I live
- things like infections - google it there is no conclusive evidence that it helps with infections. And you should practice safe sex anyway.
i was married to a man who was not circumcised and when he was about 48 he went to the hospital for circumcision. it had no ill effects on him and sex was SSSOOOOOOO much better.
Unless you have problem not being circumcised I wouldn't recommend it. You should look it up on the net to get a better idea. But one of my friends had it done a few years back and he says that he lost not all but some of the sensitivity that he had. Not the same feeling because a lot of the nerve endings are in the skin that they remove. Just research it!!
i would def say it would make a couple things alot better.
not sayin that an uncircumcised penis is bad.cuz its not...but sex is usually better...and it would help with the cleanliness issue as well...
there will be no long term effects
Unless you are having a specific health issue, there is really no reason to just get circumcised. In fact, you will most likely be losing some sensitivity as a result. Check this out for an idea of what you're actually losing by being circumcised:

Hope this helps.
Getting circumcised will significantly reduce your chance of cancer, will reduce foul odors from the tip, and help you keep it clean. It will also make women more likely to be willing to give you oral.
I wouldn't recommend cutting off any other body part & I certainly don't recommend cutting off any part of your penis.
For men who are circumcised at birth - they've never had it to miss it. You on the other hand...
Many women find an uncircumcised penis to be more attractive than a circumcised one.
As far as the feelings, you'd be cutting off a good bit of nerve endings. Nerve endings = feeling. I would imagine that you would lose some sensitivity.
In the long run, you will likely regret it. It's your penis, you have to decide what's best for it. Either way, I hope it turns out well for you.
I agree with keltillos 100%
Don't get your own, you can have mine! I have had this damn thing for 51 years and I have been trying to get rid of it.
If you like thrusting like mad for over an hour until she says "aren't you soon done?" then as willy wilts you say "guess I am". Sound like fun, that is what being 50 years old with a cut willy will get you. Too disappointed to even "finish off" by hand.
To all the young guys out there that think cut is the way to go, I thought my stick had a diamond tip when I was 26 years old, by the time I was 28 I began to know the awful truth.
"circumcision" is mutilation!
If there's nothing physically/medically wrong with your foreskin, then it's probably not a good idea to get circumcised. If there's nothing wrong, it could potentially have a negative effect in the long run.
Getting circumcised would remove a lot of the nerve endings in the foreskin, nerve endings that could otherwise contribute to sexual sensitivity (links 1, 2). Furthermore, several studies seem to indicate that the foreskin may actually be beneficial to the sexual satisfaction/pleasure of not only the man, but the woman as well (links 3, 4, 5).
So things will likely not feel as good after getting circumcised as compared to before, especially if there's nothing wrong in the first place. Also, the glans (penis head) tends to get desensitized over time after being circumcised, as it gets rougher from being exposed and rubbing against everything; it might feel good for those first several years, but after a while, it might not.
As long as your foreskin's working normally, you maintain good genital hygiene (which is quick and easy), and you practice safe sex (when the time comes), then it's probably better to stay the way you are right now. Besides, about 70-80% of the world's men are uncircumcised, and the vast majority of them (nor the women that go along with that population) seem to complain, so it must be alright.
The choice is yours, and that's a big deal. Just don't make one that you might end up regretting.
