Should i get circumcised?

Question

I'm 17 and I'm about to get circumcised next month when researching the process i came across these websites against doing it but the problem is that i have had erectile dysfunction for about 10 months and this nasty rash appeared as well i've tried everything from washing it a lot and even stop master bating from time to time...

but on the other hand these websites i've been on said that there is no need to get circumcised what should i do about this situation because im dying to know please help me!!!

Answer 1

im circumsised. i dont regret it one bit. your p***s is less sensitive, but u also need to ALWAYS have lube on hand, or else you can damage your rod. go for it, just think long and hard.

plus...if u dont like it, u can always TRY and stretch it out. i've managed to stretch mine a bit, but not enough to consider it a complete f******n.

or...u could just get a bit chopped off so that you still have some f******n to work with.

Answer 2

Sites on the internet have barely any credibility (even this one), you should talk to your doctor, he knows more than anyone here.

Answer 3

Circumcision is definitely better than having a f******n. However, it does not sound like you are having f******n problems. Erectile dysfunction? If you are really suffering from e.d. then circumcision will not solve it. If e.d. is really the problem then your doctor should be looking at other more severe problems like heart problems or diabetes, especially at only 17.

Like I said, circumcision is good and it does have many benefits. Just make sure that you are receiving the right treatment for your problems.

Answer 4

Think long and hard about it. Once gone it is gone forever.

Millions of men worldwide manage to get one fine without it having been done, and the claims that it is cleaner and safer are grossly exaggerated.  

Answer 5

Circumcision should only be used as a very last resort treatment, not as a first option. NOCIRC may be able to refer you to a f******n-friendly doctor. http://www.nocirc.org/centers/

f******n problems don't usually cause ED though.

Rashes can be caused by soap, or a thrush or fungal infection, often induced by soap. Thrush or fungal infections can also cause rips or tears to form in the f******n and make it difficult to retract. Sometimes a tube of cream from a pharmacy will fix it but your partner has to use it too and you have to use condoms until you both are clear.

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.

Answer 6

I really think you should and can find an alternative treatment. Having part of your p***s cut off is quite a big decision, and irreversible. Has your doctor said that a circumcision is what you need? If so, then find another doctor or at least a second and maybe even a third opinion. I am not sure that ED can be caused by f******n. As far as the rash, I guess having your f******n getting cut off will get rid of it if they cut the rash off, but probably only temporarily. You can get rash on a circumcised p***s too, you know. I really hope you don't go through with this. I don't think circumcision is going to help your situation, if anything it will only cause more problems. Good luck.

Answer 7

It was put there for a reason so keep it!

If you get circumcised apparently it makes s*x less pleasurable.

Answer 8

see a doctor or get a second opinion from another doctor if u are already seeing one.

Answer 9

The rash could very well be an easily treatable fungal infection like yeast or even an allergic reaction.  

Erectile dysfunction has several physical causes like diabetes, as well as psychological causes such as stress and depression.  The underlying cause probably has nothing to do with your p***s.

Don't get circumcised until you've tried every possible treatment.

Answer 10

first of all, IM a nurse.  I got circumsized when I was in my twenties because I "wanted to be like everyone else".  Gosh, I wish I could get my f******n back.  It is a very painful procedure.  You will lose sensitivity to your p***s and the procedure may cause you to lose length.  I did.  The first thing the doctor said to me after my procedure was "well....you've lost some length".  NOT A GOOD THING!  I am not joking with you.....PLEASE dont do it.  Talk to your doctor or email me and I'll explain to you how to keep it clean.  It sounds like you just have a yeast infection.  email aywwbubbakitty@yahoo.
