It should be offered as circumcision does have a lot of health benefits for men, from lower cancer risks and STD spread to general hygiene

I had hoped that this thread might be helpful for men who had a circumcision on the horizon and didn't know what to expect, men who may be anxious and may avoid having surgery because they think it will be too painful etc, much in the way calvinkleinguy's thread was so helpful to me.
I know this is a discussion forum but it would be really good if this thread didn't end up as an argument around the politics of medical versus cosmetic circumcision and it's provision on the NHS.

Circumcision (cosmetic) benefits are far too low and doesn't reduce/lower the chances of various kinds of STDs. When it comes to general hygiene, its just matter of brisk washing. Circumcisied men will still have to continue washing.
I know you are circumcised and you will have an emotional need to justify it. You're welcome

How was things today? Any pain? Still taking your pain killers?
No real pain. Just discomfort.
They told me to just regularly take paracetamol and ibuprofen. I've been doing that but I might stop as it doesn't feel too bad.
THink today will be the big day!!
BEst of luck, and everything will be just fine.
And the head will be much more sensitive, at least that was my case.
Nway, hope the best, and post some pictures from the before, hoping to see a nice pink head come from what (in my opinion) already was a very nice (at least i woul love to play with) penis

Thanks.
I had the operation two days ago. It seems to be healing fine. Still a bit swollen but nothing abnormal from what I can gather.
All the best with it. I was luckier than you in that my need for circumcision came at 16, so still very young, and the fact was I would have failed my army medical if I had refused to get it done. Army life didn't turn out too happy for me (being gay in the army then wasn't exactly popular, and you had to hide it), but if for no other reason, I am grateful to the army for making me undergo circumcision - the best thing I have ever done.
I would assume a you are having a GA, they will only keep you in hospital overnight, by this time on Tuesday you will be home and probably not wearing anything on your lower half (that's how I was).
I hope I am not going to tread on any toes, but I wonder if you were aware of any problems "down there" while still at school?. The reason I say this, and I admit it is a bit of a bee in my bonnet, was that I had, and I had the same school medicals at 12, 14, and 16, I tried mentioning it at my 16th, but the doctor looked more embarrassed than I felt. I had my army medical a few weeks after the last school one. The army medic performed the same tests and he could see the problem which the three school docs didn't. There were other lads at school tighter than me, but no advice was ever given to them either. It begs the question as to why school doctors make you drop em, if they are either not looking or not interested. It should have concerned them that we couldn't retract even under the shower.
Don't even start me on the American "intactavist" movement (also in Britain now). - with their hysterical "mutilated" and "his body his choice" slogans. There are, I am sure indications in very early childhood that some boys are born with too much foreskin. I am not suggesting that every baby needs to be circumcised if he has a mid/short foreskin, because there probably won't be a problem, but for me and others like me, it would have been the kindest thing to have done - we wouldn't have remembered it, and despite what the Intactavists claim, most men are not unhappy or even suicidal about having been circumcised at birth - you can be a very happy cut man.
To be fair, I think some of the claims made in response by the pro-circumcisers can be a bit misleading - the favourite one being that circumcision saves you from HIV - condoms are more responsible for that, and if you have any sex it makes sense yo use one, not just for HIV but for Hepatitis too. BUt I will always believe that a circumcised penis is cleaner, neater more attractive and is a benefit not to just yourself but to your partners as well.
Mine got less sensitive as the process went on. I had it done aged 42 as I have a big head, also had banjo string removed and remade! Best thing I ever did. Got mine done privately under local (!) and had to knock one out (very carefully) after 10 days. The saltwater baths helped a lot and the stitches all came out when they should. I hated my dick and having to explain it to everyone whenever I met for a hookup but now I love it. No need for explanations!
Didn’t need the Vaseline but I found towels a bit abrasive initially so maybe that would work. And learning to wank again - it’s a completely different game!

Thanks man.
Swelling is going down, and the tip sensitivity seems to have improved.
Night time erections are a bit difficult at the moment but hopefully that will improve too.

Was it a technique change as you couldn’t use your skin? How tight is the cut?
Hi everyone. This post has really calmed my nerves a little. I’m a 20 year old man with severe phimosis (since I can remember) and the skin barely moves at all -although it doesn’t cause any discomfort. I also have a relatively small penis/balls at around 5 inches.
I’m absolutely certain I’d need circumcising which doesn’t worry me too much, I’m just absolutely petrified to go to the GP. Not one person has ever seen my penis and with it being small too I’m just petrified. I know that this is their job but still I’m very scared. I know it needs to be done for cleanliness reasons as (gross I know) I’ve never cleaned under there. I’m also worried as masturbating will be much different after this, as I’ve spent the past 20 years doing it one way.
When soft, my penis sits at around 1 inch, and hard it is about 5. I’m just absolutely petrified of the doctor seeing it. Some support would be absolutely amazing guys

If your phimosis is severe it is worth getting it done. I am from UK. Dont worry about size, I'm bit smaller than you, a bit under 4.5". Its no big deal. They will be used to cleaning under penis during operation. I am sure they will have seen it all before.
It will make sex alot easier and it gave me alot more confidence. Masturbation isnt the same though - got to be honest thats not great. But it balances with having healthy penis and able to have sex without pain / discomfort and better for sex partner than if you cant clean under the skin.

Firstly, the doctor isn't going to see you erect. For all they know, you could be a proper grower.
The doctor appointment will only last a couple of minutes. They will just attempt to pull back the foreskin themselves.
They give you a steroid cream that won't work and after you finish this, they will refer you to a specialist (urologist)
They will attempt to pull back the skin again and then book you in for a circumcision. This initial consultation will again only take a few minutes. Once they see the skin doesn't go back then that's all they need to see.
Don't be scared of a doctor. They have seen it all. And an urologist had seen worse. Much worse.
I also have a thread on my experience. I got circumcised about 8 weeks ago
