I can only retract my foreskin about 1cm past the head, when it is erect, and then it begins to feel tight. Is that far enough? Will i be able to have sex? I am worried about my frenulum tearing! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is probably not what you want to hear but if it becomes a problem and your sexual well being is jeopardized, consider Circumcision....

Erect and unerect you should be able to pull your foreskin all the way back so the entire glans is exposed. If the opening of the foreskin feels tight, then you could stretch the opening as far as it'll go without pain (kinda like increasing its radius) for a few minutes everyday for a few weeks. That should loosen it enough to allow you to retract your foreskin fully. If this doesn't work after like a month or so, go see your doctor because there are creams that're supposed to help.
If your frenulum is too tight, then you can also gently stretch and loosen that up a little. If you're gentle it shouldn't tear. If it's too short go see a doctor. See links for more details and in any case, circumcision is not necessary and if your doctor jumps to it too readily, tell him you want other options.
Regardless you can probably have sex as is but it might not feel as good since you can't retract to expose the most sensitive parts of your penis. If you can, wait until you've tried the above.

Your foreskin should retract so that the skin along the shaft of the penis is smooth and the head is visible. If this is not the case, see a doctor for a fairly simple reparitive surgery - this is NOT circumcision; they will merely make a small cut that will ease the foreskin at the point where it is tight.
Before doing that, you might also want to try some stretching exercises - you can find many illustrations of these on the Internet. They will slowly stretch the foreskin out and give your penis more room to move.
I'm sure some will tell you to get circumcised. At your age, this is a painful and unnecessary procedure that reduces your sensitivity, and is not encouraged by either the American Association of Paediatrics, or the American Medical Association.
Circumcision doesn't make you cleaner or less likely to get STDs. It also does not change the risk of getting penile cancer - a VERY rare cancer in the first place.

Yes you can have sex, there's no problem there. People's nobs have been like that for millions of years- obviously!! Yes it can tear if you are forcing it into somewhere it doesn't want to go!! But life will be better for you if you are circumcised.
You need to see a GP and a small operation IS in order. If he tried to put you off by telling you it is normal, you need to try another GP. Ideally the foreskin should retract so the whole head of the penis is exposed.
Don't get fobbed off to try "creams" which are supposed to loosen the skin- I mean, how could they?
You can not enjoy a b_l_o_w j_o_b properly unless your foreskin goes right back. This is reason enough for a snip or circumcision!!

There are only two things needed to retract it: cleaning and sex. In the case of sex if it retreats enough that your head comes in good contact with her, then that is enough. In the case of hygene, as long as it retracts enough to keep it clean it is enough. You don't have to flop it all the way back like rolling your eyelid. Enough distance for the basics is enough distance.

i understand ur problem but i have masturbated so much that i can pull it few inches easily using any lubricating gel or saliva but i think it would be better if we undergo circumsicion coz if we masturbate too much then the foreskin will loosen a lot.
bbye
