Anybody else **** too early and lose the stitches?
Nearly. It was like day 5 I think, it was a stupid idea and i stopped halfway through, as hard as that was. Doesn't bother me as much now though, when that happened I honestly was bursting for release(pun intended), but now, on day 11 it doesn't bother me at all. (Still looking forward to one though:D)0 -

Hi there, tomorrow Ill be 4 weeks post chop. Have a few questions for the guys who are passed my stage if they can help!
The lad seems to be healling well now but I didnt take stiches out as I was told to leave em dissolve and there is kinda a ripple on one side near the top of my dick where the scar line begins. Question did you guys leave in the stiches? if yes, did any of yea get these ripples and did they go away.
Finally am managing to have a good Tug and enjoy it!!!! thank God!!!:D:D But havent tried sex with my wife yet which is driving me crazy (if I dont soon she will probably divorce me as well!:pac:). Although I seem to be well healed as in along the scar line is Im a little afraid of what happend to you nip ? So am just wondering when you all were able to sex?
Also a bit different currently when Im having a tug I need loads of lube which I never needed before as I guess I use to have a foreskin !!! Either way am enjoying a bit of a different sensation. Just wondering how have the rest of you got on with using condoms and having sex and advice for the first time back at it ( If anyone repplies its like riding a bike you never forget ill kill ya)
Cheers for any help;)0 -
...Should I make new appointment with doc before op (on 5/5) to explain my fears and expectations ???
Yes! It'd be interesting to know how they know where to cut and how much to take etc, like do they inject you with viagra when you're out cold or what??

That all sounds the same as what I had. The ripply bits smooth out over time. I did it (very gently) with some vazeline on the scar and a condom after 3 weeks, but then 2 days later I got a bit over eager in sex and made myself bleed :eek: so left it another 5 days or a week or something and then gently went at it again with vazeline and a condom.
Also yes the first few tugs I had I needed loads of lube too and a loose grip (boy this is getting graphic) as the scar was bumpy and tender.
But now, since maybe 2 months or so post op I can do it without any lube.0 -

I met with the Urologist today. Fortunately she was more older and more pregnant than the pics i had seen of her so no boner when she was inspecting my penis :cool: (it also helped i had a good few **** this morning also!!
).
Anyway she recommended a full cicrumcision.
I asked about alternatives like the dorsal slit. She said its not as aesthetically pleasing and there is no drastic difference in recovery.
I asked about how much you take off (like is was getting a haircut or something) she said it was upto me, as she would remove everthing that was tight. Did i want to forskin to cover some of the head or none of the head? i said i'd like to keep as much foreskin as possible because i have read about people having too much taken off and erections were uncomfortable because they are tight.
On the stretching front, not much progress in the last couple of weeks since the inital progress so i'm accepting my faith.
The Circumcision is arranged to happened in a month's time. She described the procedure as they will injected a numbing shot into the skin just above the penis and i will be awake as they chop me up...kinda terrified of that!!
Anybody else have their circumcision while they are concious? Any tips how not to freak out? I'm thinking of bringing my ipod and putting a hat large enough to pull over my eyes for the duration of the OP or something.0 -

I had mine done under local anaesthetic also. Its fine, you can feel nothing, your are lying down or reclined, so you see nothing, you can close your eyes or stare at the ceiling, or chat to the doc, Its all fine, and you can walk away with none of the affects of a general.
my personal advice re style is get the cut fairly high and fairly tight - too low and you lose some sensation, too loose and it will annoy you as it will sag and half cover your glans when soft, which is neither one thing or another. You dont have to get a dramatic tight cut, but if you are getting circumcised you might as well get it done properly rather than partially, otherwise you may end up getting it redone to tighten it up in a few months....0 -

Eh a normal, healthy, fully functioning penis has a foreskin that covers the glans, keeping said glans sensitive and moist and retracts comfortably when required for sex. This is a fact. No if's buts or maybes. Circumcision may be for cultural reasons, but medically surely it's done to relieve a condition and to preserve as much of the natural function as possible? It's hardly "one thing or another" as seems to be the perception of a few on this thread.westskipper wrote: »my personal advice re style is get the cut fairly high and fairly tight - too low and you lose some sensation, too loose and it will annoy you as it will sag and half cover your glans when soft, which is neither one thing or another.

Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

ask her about this, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Preputioplasty you get to keep your bits with all the function and sod all aesthetic change. That link suggests it requires more surgical skill than average(and more than the full snip that's for sure) so maybe that's why it's not given as an alternative?
Hmmm...interesting
Many of these done in Ireland? Has anyone here had one done? if so by what surgeon?? 0 -

Here I know it's not good manners to talk back to moderators on boards but Wibbs will you ever give it a rest. We know you are against circumcision unless where absolutely necessary, but that's no reason to be condescending to people who prefer otherwise.
You've presented all the facts etc which is great, but I just really can't understand why you are so anti-circ. The vast majority of people here are very pleased with their decision, it's each to his own and if someone prefers a tight cut or whatever that's up to them, you seem to take personal insult when someone recommends one thing or another regarding a circ. Were you bullied by a circumcised child or what?:p
Anyway that's my contribution for the day.
