I want to get circumcised. What is the first step? Will I be in horrible pain?

Question

I hate being uncircumcised. Has anyone had the operation in adulthood? If you have is the pain excruciating? Did the pain last a long time?

Answer 1

The real question should be why don't you actually do the research on your own to find out the answer instead of asking some other people who really do not care about you....for the love of Christ you are going to have surgery to remove part of your penis.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO GET CIRCUMCISED

First, you really must know your anatomy as I have described above. If you draw a circle with a colored marker around the opening of the foreskin in the UNERECT state (and be quick, a lot of you will find this erotic and you will start erecting) and another circle on the foreskin at the base of the glans, or corona, and pull your foreskin back, the area between the 2 circles is what nee ds to come off. You will have the frenulum safely protected and the 'cut' line should be at least 11/2" to 2" back from the base of the glans. TELL THE SURGEON THAT THIS IS ALL THAT IS ALLOWED TO BE CUT OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You will then be assured of the perfect cut - the same as the optimal circumcisions that are done in the newborn period - and you will have lost NO significant erotic tissue. Do not be tempted to go for extreme tightness as some men feel they should. Intercourse is made unpleasant and the resulting enormous tension that this places on the frenulum will drive you into a rapid orgasm. You need to keep all the benfits that Mother Nature provided you with and only lose the hassles. You don't want to add new (but different) problems to your organ - you have already put up with enough!!!

Then, try 'wearing' your foreskin pulled back at all times. A little tape helps and over a few months you will notice that your glans is not as sensitive to your clothes rubbing on it. At this point you can decide if you feel that you are less erotically endowed -and if you think you are, then circumcision is not for you.

If for example, you like to spend most of your time stimulating just the tip of your foreskin with it always pulled over the glans, this means one of two things.

1.
If you can easily retract your foreskin but choose to keep it forward and just use a finger to pull on and rub the tip of the 'elephant's trunk' and this is your primary means of penile simulation, then DON'T undergo the operation. You will really miss what has become your preferred method of sexual pleasure.

2.
If this is the only way you can get erotic sensations because you can't ever pull the foreskin back, cirumcision is a NECESSITY for you, as you have a condition called phimosis. This not only increases your risk for penile cancer but may increase your female partner's chances of cervical cancer. Plus you are missing all the benefits of being able to expose your glans and stimulate it and you are yet to experience the sensations your frenulum can give you!

THE OPERATION

I had my operation done under local anesthetic. You will feel a little sting as this is injected into the penile skin but that is all the discomfort there is. After the operation which takes less than 30 minutes, the penis will be tightly bandaged almost up to the urinary opening. This prevents erections from pulling on the suture line. The sutures should come out in 10 to 14 days and you need to be careful not to tug on the sutureline ('cut' line) yet as it takes about 3 weeks for the incision line to be firm and unbreakeable. Many men feel so much stimulation occurring as a reflex from the suture line, that they are sexually charged all day long and simply have to masturbate the moment the dressings come off - possibly even before. You can do this by lightly stroking the shaft and glans with a water based lubricant until you ejaculate. I was able to rub the frenulum as it was just exposed and it was worth the wait of 48 hours of dealing with a constant erection and production of masses of pre-***. The orgasm was powerful and I was able to think again of things other than my erect penis. Just don't go into a full blown jerking off frenzy!! You can do a lot of damage to the cut line but you can certainly try a more vigorous, but still cautious workout, 3 weeks after the surgery if you feel so inclined -and if the surgeon has said that the penis has healed well when he sees you at your final post-operative visit.

The sexual benefits of circumcision Are you kidding, Doc?? You mean there ARE some?????? Indeed there are! Observations of circumcised versus uncircumcised men during intercourse almost always show that the 'cut' guys are slower to ejaculate. This is indeed a benefit and presumably is related to the increased frictional sensitivity that the 'uncut' man has to deal with immediately on inserting his penis at the start of intercourse.

My observation is that once the normally dried skin of the glans in the 'cut' state becomes moistened and as sexual tension mounts, there is NO difference in the sensations between the two. But the cut guy gets a little lead time before plunging into orgasm. Few people find this a negative experience! Also, the tighter skin of the shaft allows more frictional feelings to be transmitted to the whole length of the penis, som ething that rarely happens in the 'uncut' state. This was a totally new and pleasant surprise to me.

With the uncircumcised penis the foreskin pulls up over the corona and then further, it covers the glans, on each out stroke, just as if a condom hadmagically appeared and covered the head -and it dulls the otherwise pleasurable sensation of penile withdrawal. In the 'uncut' state the shaft skin is so loose that it barely moves with thrusting- the body of the penis literally slides in and out of this 'glove'. Again, it is a dull and distant sensation. The circumcised man can feel the grip of the vagina, for example, up and down the whole organ with each thrust and withdrawal and he can focus his mind on wherever he wants from the glans, the frenulum or the pressure of the vagina's (or rectum's) muscles as they grip the shaft, stimulating the skin by light fric tion and pressure from the base of the penis to the glans!!!

The uncircumcised man does not feel these sensations so acutley - they are distant and duller. I realize that this is the exact OPPOSITE of what you may have read and heard from people like NO-CIRC. Remember, that many of these people are disaffected individuals with an agenda and they are the last people you would want to get information from on THIS topic.

I have had so many men write and call me on this subject after having been circumcised as adults, invariably telling me that they have loved the results. If there is any regret, it is in not having had it done sooner, though some also wistfully say that there are less variations in the masturbation repertoire, but that this trade-off is worth it, as the gains noted above more than compensate.

Well, it serves to stress that you can't have it all !!! BUT, some men have had really radical surgery and the results then, are disastrous as discussed above.

POST CIRCUMCISION

The penis should be tightly bandaged including covering most of the glans. This constricts the penis which following the reflex stimulation from the surgery, has a mind of its own and as I mentioned above, wants to 'pop' up all day long. The bandages come off in 3 to 4 days. Your penis will be bruised and the mucous membrane layer will be swollen. This all goes away as the blood vessels rejoin over the next 2 weeks.

You will notice that each time you erect, the 'cut' line will tingle in a most pleasant fashion. Enjoy this sensation while you can as it passes in about a year. Though once in a while you can still feel it, especially as your penis erects and swells.

For those of you who are going to get it done, congratulations on making a difficult decision. For those of you who were circumcised as children and were wondering about what you are missing, I hope this helps.

Answer 2

hi mate,

I am 22 yrs old and got circumcised about 6 months ago.
I had so many questions and amxity like you do but actually its not so complicated. You just have to find the right Dr to get it done.

There are two options:

1) They will make you completely unconcious and then do a operation. Its very expencive ($1500 to $2000)

2)Three local enesthisia injections in your penis and then do the surgery. you won't feel any pain after the injections but injection itsself cause some pain.
I did this one.
Cost me only $600

After the operation its same PAIN in both cases.
You can walk to your car straight after operation but can't drive.
first 2 days you can feel some pain but pain killers really help.
You can walk but prefer having Bed rest and watching movies.

Then 3rd day you change your dressing, put some cream on it.
And continue to change dressing every day.
Slight pain when you piss!

You can go to woek when pain is not too much probably 4days to a week.

Really really pains if you think dirty and your Penis erects so KEEP YOUR MIND CLEAN. STAY AWAY FROM THE FEMALES.

But after 2 weeks you are ready to ROCK.
you and your partner both will love it.
Just start slow because skin is tight in the first 2-3 months.
But no major Complications.

GO FOR IT MATE!
