Pearly penile papules (ppp's)

[CTJP]

Hey, just wondering how many of you have PPP's around the rim of your glans? They are quite normal/benign and about 20-30% of guys have them.

If so, a brief survey:

1. Are you cut/uncut?
2. Ethnicity or country of origin?

As for me - I have them and am uncut and of Dutch origin.

Mine are all over the head of my dick. I thought that was just normal. Is it not ?

Thr3Dk1LL3r, you are circumcised. Those aren't PPPs. Frankly, I don't know WHAT they are, and I've seen a lot of dicks in my time. My money is on dry skin, but regardless, I'm sure they are harmless. Next time you see your doctor, ask him/her. He deserves to be as puzzled as I am. You've got a nice dick. I bit weird, but nice none the less. So tell us, why were you cut?

I've always had them. I thought they were normal until I started seeing all the smooth head here. Yeah I will have to bring it up to them next time. Thx. I was done after I was born.

I don't have them as pronounced as the example pic, but I do have some. I'm uncut and have some lineage in Great Britain and Scandanavia.

I really need to do the Ancestry DNA kit.

I did the 23andme and found it to be very interesting.

I just want to know more about where I come from. Its intriguing to me

usually (nothing is 100% when it comes to people), PPP occurs on the Penis glans if you are uncut. I am cut, and had them form on my shaft (mostly near the base, but also along the underside of my shaft). I got them during puberty, and they went away when I began using a penis pump oddly enough. They were PPP, according to doctors. it doesn't seem common (at least according to internet searches) that PPP is cured by pumping, but it did for me.

Second, unrelated, but ancestry sites compare Genes of people who sent in their DNA. So it's not accurate as to where your genes "came from" so much as "your genes are shared by a lot of people who currently live in X region". and considering ton of population shifts occurred over the last 100 years (and many more at various points in history), they won't always be as accurate as we hope.

I'm cut and a mix of Spanish and Italian. I don't have them, but I have to admit, a really fat, uncut veiny dick with those around the coronal ridge make for a very ugly, yet very masculine and tough looking cock. I always feel envious when I see one like it in porn, especially if it's tan like mine but much fatter.

 

[headbang8]

I’m uncut, and have had them since puberty. That included one very prominent white one some distance down the shaft. It disappeared in my 20s, and the others around the coronal ridge are far less prominent than they once were.

I'm cut, and have had them since puberty. I'm almost exclusively German and Mexican.

 

[deleted972301]

Circumcised
Black and Latino
Had them since I started puberty, they have died down a little, but they are still noticeable. Doc's have told me they are perfectly fine. I have tried a few topical creams in my teenage years to get rid of them and some of worked in reducing the size, but for the most part they have never fully disappeared. I'm used to it now and none of my partners have freaked out over it, so I assume its more common than I thought.

 

[kaskasero101]

im cut since 12yrs old. started having them around 13-14. asian here(the philippines). growing up im very shy around my peers coz of that never wanna get naked around them or at least always covering that part haha, i used to think im the only one who has them so in my later years up till now i was getting a chance to check out my buddies' if they have it too

 

[Nexolaris]

I had those PPP but removed them myself. I'm uncut and mostly of German ancestry (with a few others like Dutch in the mix).

 

[long_uncut]

Uncut. Only five or six PPP located on the underside of the corona. American of western European descent.

No - they’re usually just on the rim and I have a few either side of my frenulum.
