my husband is probably having it done so we were curious

has he read my profile about foreskin removal?
has he watched those videos yet that i posted in response to your other question?
in my opinion, unless he has BXO, he shouldn't have got to the stage of asking this question, you should both instead be asking "why is there routine circumcision in the US when 1 in 10 000 men get the medical condition that is only cured by circumcision?"

Other than surgery is their a cure for phimosis?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker
Circumcision is now recommended only in confirmed cases of phimosis caused by balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO), however newer treatments may eliminate the need for circumcision. BXO is recognized by a hardened area of whitish skin near the tip of the foreskin which prevents retraction.2,9,10,11 Shankar and Rickwood found a low incidence of only 0.4 of 1000 boys per year, and only 6 in 1000 by age 15.10 See Balanitis Xerotica Obliterans for more information. Other cases of non-retractile foreskin respond to conservative, non-destructive, non-traumatic, less costly treatment.

I never knew there was an option. I have never heard of a loose circumcision. The Dr either gets rid of the skin or they don't.

I just found a site, and by golly, there is a difference! I don't think I've personally experienced a "loose" circumcision, but I think I prefer my man to have a "tight" circumcision for hygenic purposes. Here's the site I just checked out, but please be warned that there are graphic pictures.

It's cool either way. It did notice that over time,it was more sensitive around the head overall before the circumcision. Peace.

Neither, thank you. I'm uncut and I think disfiguring a male is disgusting. Would YOU like to be circumscised as a female? They do it daily in the Middle East and Africa.

Did not realize there was a difference. All 3 of my sons were circumsized.

You keep posting these questions so I think that this is a joke. I've seen these postings at least 5 times now.
AND THEY'RE NOT EVEN PREGNANCY QUESTIONS!
Quit wasting helpful people's time - and, if your'e seriously stupid and not a jokester, please discuss this with your doctor!!
