Should I get circumsised?

Question

Ok so I'm 12 and I was thinking about getting circumsised. I told my mom about a week ago and she said it was fine if I wanted to. I wanted to because it was painful to pull the f******n back and I also had a minor infection about a year or 2 ago. Recently though, it started to get better. It doesn't hurt to pull it back anymore and the infection thing still is there but I think I'll go to the doctor to get that better. I'm just concerned about one part. When I pull my f******n back, there is a part where it doesn't come back completely. It isn't much but it is sort of white and I'm a little bit concerned. Should it be something I should be worried about or should I just go to the doctors? My main question though is, Should I get circumsised or not?

Answer 1

yeap u should do it earlier without second thought.

Answer 2

im sorry im female and I dont know wat circummsised means..sory can u tell me?

Answer 3

Yes you should. When a person gets problems with their f******n it will only come back. There are a lot of other benefits too.

Circumcision is a very easy and simple procedure, sometimes you can get it done right in a urologists office.

Answer 4

Are you sure you have an infection?  My son, who's five, is very sensitive to soap and bubble bath and it causes irritation under his f******n.  If you're not absolutely sure that you have an infection, try not washing with soap.  Just rinse of with water in the shower.

It's not uncommon for a 12-year-old's f******n to not go back all the way.  That alone isn't reason enough to get circumcised.  

Answer 5

From your description, getting circumcised would be utterly pointless.

If your f******n is too tight to be pulled back, then all you need to do is some stretching exercises.

The part that you said doesn't come back completely sounds like the frenulum, which is normal, and isn't supposed to fully come back past the head because it is attached to it.

Now that you can pull it back easier it will be easier to maintain hygiene under the f******n (just slide it back in the shower and wash each day) so you'll probably never get an infection again.

Answer 6

NOOOO not if you can fix the problem it does take awhile to get comfortable with sliding and cleaning behind the f******n but when you get used to it it defiently is good to still have around. Google benefits of f******n and read awhile do your research first. Once its gone you cant get it back

Answer 7

Of course you should not get circumcised! That should only be used as a last resort.

Things are getting better, so there is no need for this drastic step. The white stuff is just a bit of smegma and if it is under the pee hole the attached part is the frenulum, a normal, very sensitive structure.

Here's a link to my very detailed stretching instructions that should help you cure any tightness without getting circumcised.

Adult males lose 15 square inches (40 square centimetres) of skin in circumcision, over half the skin of your p***s. You lose the gliding action as it slides on itself during masturbation and s*x. You will suffer bruising, perhaps some bleeding, and the swelling from the disruption to the lymph system goes on for up to six months. Removing the f******n turns the surface of the glans from an inner mucosal membrane to outside skin. Newly circumcised adults usually go through some weeks of intense discomfort as the glans is constantly exposed to rubbing on clothing, until it develops a thicker keratin layer and becomes less sensitive. You must abstain from ALL sexual activity for an average of six weeks. Some men like the final result but others complain of loss of sensation and miss being able to slide their f******n over the glans. Circumcised guys often have little or no movable skin left and are forced to m********e using lube or rubbing dry, without the loose skin. There is no going back if you don’t like the result.

A recent study has shown real differences in fine touch sensitivity between circumcised and intact penises and that the most sensitive parts of the intact p***s are those that would be removed by circumcision.

The claimed benefits of circumcision are a beat up (based on flawed studies) and don't really exist but medical authorities have worked out that the overall complication rate is higher than all the benefits claimed by the pro-cutting advocates.

A very recent study in New Zealand followed a cohort of boys through life from birth to age 32. About 40% were circumcised. The intact males had a slightly lower rate of sexually transmitted infections than the circumcised but there was no significant difference.

Using surgery to mutilate the genitals instead of washing in a modern western society makes no sense. Normal intact male genitals are, if anything, easier to wash than female ones and the same substance, smegma collects in the genital folds of both sexes. A few intact males have problems with tight f******n but this is only a tiny proportion of intact males. The condition can now be almost always treated with simple stretching exercises, sometimes in combination with a steroid cream that speeds up the process.

Many women who get to interact sexually with an intact p***s prefer the natural state. Don’t do this to yourself. Be proud of your whole and natural body.

Answer 8

I wish my parents hadn't chosen it for me, when I found out about it I read everything I could, I know tons of information about and have read both pro and anti circumcision websites, I really wanted to believe it was good, but the truth just isn't there, you see and hear all these claims but if you ask for the actual study nobody has them or they are so old and used invalid techniques and would not even be considered for publishing, I wanted to believe it was good but if you look at both sides, circumcising without an immediate medical need makes no sense at all. I later did f******n restoration restoring what was left (they do leave some f******n) but it's not all restorable, but what I was able to get back was great. but this came at a price, I can no longer see circumcision as cosmetic or as if it does not really matter, things that I thought were normal I only realized were problems after I restored and no longer had them, sexual enjoyment is way up. I can't imagine how much better the real thing is.

people have said in relation to sexual pleasure

intact=10

cut=3

restored=7

and from my experience I agree with the cut/restored numbers

Answer 9

Yes you should,you wont be getting those infections,that f******n is very hard to keep clean and a good place for bacteria to grow.Go ahead and have it done you will be glad you did.

Answer 10

I think all guys should be circumsized.

So if you want it done, I say go for it.

Answer 11

I can realate to you.  I've been deabating the issue for a while myself.  What I find worst about not being circumsised is the pain or sensetivity of the skin underneth.  I've seen a urologist and he recommended that I keep my f******n pulled most of the time.  At first I started doing so at night because it was just too unpleasant to walk during the day.  Lately I have my f******n pulled all the time, even during the day.  The problem is that it takes a while for skin to be de-sensetised.  Urine trapped underneth f******n also makes penile skin more sensetive to pain.  My advice, try to always have your f******n pulled back and see it it gets better.  It might help you with infections as well because it would be more assessible in the shower.  

Answer 12

Yes you are already having problems with your f******n and infections and you are only 12. Being uncircumcised also makes you more open to S.T.D.s and H.I.V. so yea get circumcised before you are old enough to start having s*x. Your f******n will also cause you problems when you start masturbating since it is already hard to pull back.

Answer 13

I can not believe some of these answers. Of course you shouldn't get circumcised! The problems are getting better, right? So why would you even consider it now? The part that doesn't come back, it wouldn't happen to be your frenulum, would it? That wont detach itself and shouldn't. If it is the f******n itself, most likely it will in due time. You should go to your doctor if you have an infection, they'll give you something to clear it up and while you are there ask if it's normal to have that part of your skin not retract fully yet. Don't get circumcised, you will probably regret it. Good luck.
