Adult circumcisions?


Question:
Hey can anyone tell me if adult circumcisions are even possible, and how much would they might cost in the uk... and how painful would they really be??

Answers:
Adult circumcision is possible. Because after puberty, the penis is mobile - changing size frequently throughout the day - healing is more difficult, and can be painful. Certainly post op, there is pain.

Removing the foreskin exposes the glans to the air, and to constant friction in clothing. The result is that the head of penis becomes covered in keretin, which reduces the sensitivity - essentially, many of the nerve endings that stimulate the male are blocked by the keretin.

In addition, the foreskin which is removed is covered in thousands of nerve endings. Unlike the skin on the rest of the shaft of the penis, the foreskin consists of tissue similar to the head of the penis. Again, removing the foreskin reduces sexual stimulation.

After a circumcision, you will find you need to use lube or lotion during masturbation to avoid microscopic tearing of the glans, which can cause localized irritation and soreness.

Unless there is a medical reason to do so, I would not recommend adult circumcision.

Other Answers:
Can you pull your foreskin back when you are in the bath and your penis is not erect? If you can't, you may have a condition called phimosis.

In the most drastic circumstances, a partial or full circumcision may be required but you can try some stretching techniques before you even contemplate going down this route.

Use baby oil, Vaseline intensive care hand and body lotion, Nivea or any bland cream as a lubricant. Pull the foreskin forward away from the body several times then pull it back and hold it in the stretched position for several minutes twice daily. When the hole is large enough insert your thumb , or smaller finger if necessary, into the foreskin and grip the glans ( the head of the penis) between finger and thumb. Roll the foreskin over the thumb until the tight ring is white with stretching. Hold it in this position as long as you can at a time - say 5 minutes. . Repeat as often as you have the time and enthusiasm for. If later you find there is room for two or more fingers then use them.
If time permits even better results may be possible if you soak your penis in warm water for some minutes before you start to stretch.

Steroid creams should be used next if no significant progress has been made after a month. It is a prescription only medicine which means you will have to ask your doctor for a prescription. The cream should be massaged into the tight part of the foreskin inside and outside 2-3 times a day for at least a month combined with further stretching.

Take care to avoid premature retraction beyond the corona of the glans to avoid paraphimosis (where the foreskin gets stuck behind the glans of your penis.

Ideally, you want to reach a stage where the head of your penis is exposed when your penis is erect and the foreskin is able to glide back and forth over the top of the glans during masturbation, intercourse etc.

There is generally very few reasons (if at all) to be circumcised so speak to your doc about your other options before you go ahead and do it.
