Circumcision- To do or not?

Hey! Im uncut. Over the past couple of years, due to jelqing and stretching my foresking has grown considerably longer. I may have gained about 1/4 an inch which kind of makes me contemplate a circumcision. As such, I dont have a problem but the fact that when I have have my foreskin retracted it forms a bundle of skin at the base of my shaft(even when erect though smaller). I sometimes cannot wear a condom to cover the entire length of my penis because of the folded skin at the base. Also my penis looks ugly with the extra bit of skin hanging at the tip.

Im not sure if I should get circumcised. Im confused. Any inputs would help,specially from guys who got cut late in life.

PS: My doctor, a family member suggested that I can just cut the excess off and retain a smaller,shorter foreskin like it was before.

The suggestion of your doctor sounds reasonable to me.

That would be not a full blown circumcision which is unnecessary but a cosmetical removal of excessive skin, more like cutting the fingernails compared to removing the whole nail completely.

Excellent advice, I would to this if I where in your position.

Your doc sounds like the old country doc who circumcised me as a baby. Good doc you have there. I have a very minimal circumcision that I have seen online describe as an Orthodox Jewish circumcision. I have lots of foreskin and I am so glad for every bit of it. Only about 3/8” of my glans around my uretha is not covered. When hard, the whole skin moves back unobtrusively behind my dickhead. My advice is to go as lightly as possible on removing your foreskin. Discuss what you want fully with your doc and dont get carried away. I grieve for my son who has all of his foreskin removed. The circumcisions done today are violative of a mans pleasure and there is no need to ever consider a high and tight circumcision. Just my opinion.

Godofdeviltry, you can read about my experiences of later life circumcision Here. It was for a different reason, but the information is still valid. There are several interesting posts in this thread dealing with laterlife circumcision experiences.

Godofdeviltry, I am one of the few proponents of circumcision on this board but I don’t recommend adult circumcision. I think the body adjusts to whatever sensitivity level you have as you grow, but changing the feeling of your glans all at once seems like it would be hard to adjust to. Glad to hear firegoat didn’t have that problem. The suggestion of your doctor sounds more reasonable.

Godofdeviltry, your doctor’s advice sounds good, you should go with that if you feel you need to get cut.

Full adult circumcision can greatly reduce sensitivity in the glans.. It’s there for a reason.

Hmmm, Thanks guys. Will see how things shape up. Will keep you posted.

Circumcision for cosmetic purposes seems bizarre and unnecessary to me. Why bother?

There are a variety of condoms out there, surely you can find a brand that works.

It seems risky and not worth it. The recovery time is time you could spend getting laid or doing PE.

Also, in your signature it says:

“Success follows doing whatyou want to do. there is noo other way to be successful” —Malcolm Forbes

When it should read:
“Success follows doing what you want to do. There is no other way to be successful. “

I sincerely doubt Malcolm Forbes said either ‘whatyou’ (gesundheit) or ‘noo’. It seems out of character.

I’m just saying. :)

Given the sentiment Mr. Forbes expressed, obviously do as you please.

But I don’t see why you’d bother. Honestly.

Maybe ol’ Malcolm was Scottish, noo?

Hello there godofdevilry, This is my first post but I couldn’t help but notice that you have a similar problem to me, although I am not as bad as you, I have quite a large flap of foreskin on the top of my penis when unerect and it folds back to a big bundle swell. Now over the years I have found a way to make you look circumcised, even if your not. Yes it may sound funny but while experimenting I found that If you get some sort of a soap or something (shampoo, conditioner etc.) and pull you foreskin back and close your foreskin back up and again and repeat this, you can get the bundle of skin to fold inwards, not outwards. It takes a few tries to perfect it but timewise your looking at 30-60 secs of just putting on soap etc and pulling it back forward back forward whilst also putting a little bit of pressure on the skin below the “bundle” (so try and push it under if you know what I mean, It’s kinda hard to explain.) But once you get the hang of it you will circumsised and your not!

I don’t advise keeping the foreskin back for a prolonged period of time, due to the skin drying out a bit ( It can last say 3 hours before the skin (the red head) starts to look wrinkly, but not to worry it will go back to it’s original state after a few hours. Well I hope this works for you and everyone else who trys it, I advise it, although also be careful of cutting off blood supply, EG looking for veins on your red head. (Note: at first it will feel a bit uncomfortable due to sensitiveness, but keep doing it for a while and you should be fine, also try and moisturise the head whenever possible.)

Well thats my say in faking a circumcised penis.

When I started hanging I hung with a lot of skin stretching. From this flawed method I gained both length and skin which wasn’t a problem till I stopped gaining. After a while I seemed to develop more and more foreskin hence I decided to stop hanging with any tension on my skin.

Not much later I starting working on girth through clamping and the gained girth reduced my excess foreskin till it was normal again in the end.

So if you haven’t done much girthwork yet I would not get circumsized because the same thing may happen to you.

I think I might do it soon. There’s just so much skin flopping around there.

Sounds logical to me. Thanks everyone for the help.

Thunders! thanks for moving this thread here.

Mr. Happy, Mr.Forbes may have been bad with his writing skills. noo?

There I go again. Thunder has become Thunders. Sorry, had a bad day at work.
