Circumcision..Should I get it done?

Question

Hello, I am turning 20 soon and I am not Circumcisized. It's one of those things I think of sometimes thinking should I get it done. What are some of the upsides or being Circumcisised. Will it be painful now that I am older? Thank you.

My partner is perfectly fine with it, Im fine with it. Medically I am fine also.

I was thinking of getting it done because sometimes during intercourse it starts to hurt... I dont know if it's thanks for the foreskin but my Soldier hurts. And I was thinking it's the foreskin. I guess Ill have to speak to a doctor.

Answer 1

1) ADVANTAGES OF BEING INTACT (NOT CIRCUMCISED):
--Circumcision cuts WAY down on sexual enjoyment for the man due to loss of nerve-rich foreskin.
--Getting cut causes the glans (head) to develop a keratinized layer to protect from rubbing on clothing, further cutting sensation. Many cut men are unable to ejaculate during intercourse and have to finish "by hand." Intact men can "go all the way."
--without foreskin sex feels rough for the woman. 90% of women polled said sex was better with a man who had an uncircumcised penis. http://www.healthcentral.com/drdean/408/60750.html
--foreskin makes masturbation more fun - and better for your partner to play with.
--Circumcision hurts when it's done, even if you were too young to remember it
--a cut penis looks kind of sad with that scar where the foreskin belongs. Uncut is much hotter looking.
--Circumcision has a slight chance of complications. Each year a few baby boys have to have their entire penises amputated and undergo surgery to make them into fake girls. And a few die.

2) ADVANTAGES OF BEING CUT: Circumcision has no advantages that are not fictional or only relevant in a few areas
--You can be just as clean if you are uncircumcised. Wash. It's THAT simple. Even if you're cut, you still need to wash.
-- If you're sleeping around, you need to use condoms regardless or you will get diseases.
--Some studies have shown a lower rate of cancer of the penis in cut guys, but this cancer is so rare that it's hard to get a good statistical sample. More boys/men die each year from botched circumcisions than from cancer of the penis.
--Recent reports from Africa say that circumcision reduces the risk of AIDS from unprotected hetrosexual activity. This has little relevance to areas of the world where condoms are cheap, readily available, and culturally acceptable. In the US AIDS is spread primarily by homosexual contact and by drug users sharing needles. Circumcision is useless to prevent disease spread in either of those manners.

Answer 2

If you and your partner are fine, then why would you do it? This is something that is usually done at birth. It's mainly done for religious beliefs, but it is not proven that is has anything to do with better health. As long as you keep it clean and you pull your foreskin to wash, you shouldn't be worried about infections or anything like that. It also doesn't protect you more or less of any STDs. Circumcision is not really thought of as cosmetic surgery. It might be done in an emergency or like I said at birth but you should just leave that alone. You should be fine with how you are.

Answer 3

As a healthcare provider I am at a loss as to why you would think you would need it done if there is no problem (If it ain't broke...don't fix it). After alot of research and my own personal experience in years of healthcare......I chose not to circumcise my own sons....and they have chosen not to circumcise thier sons. Why would God mess up on how he designed us? Most of the men on earth are not circumcised...this is only done predominately in the United States. However, in some cases it can cause a problem, so fix it then if you must. Otherwise.....why?

Answer 4

its your decision either way. i was circumsized in december, but it needed to be done. i dont notice a difference in an sexual sensation or orgasm or whatever, or walking or sensitivity.

it wasnt painful at all. jsut an anoying itchy feeling for about 2 days after the bandage came off. it took about 3-4 weeks to fully heal.

some people prefer the looks of circumsized *****, they are easier to clean. i myself think it doesnt make all that much of a difference.

if youre having pain during sex. i would most certainly have it done. dont let the pain freak you out it realy isn that bad. If you dont have any pain during sex, think about it, and go with whatever ay want.

Answer 5

NO! I think men who aren't circumcised have more sensitive "parts" and don't have to thrust as much during intercourse to get pleasure (better for your partner in my opinion). The right person will be fine with you not being circumcized.

Answer 6

If you like it right now, why change it? It can't be reversed. Some would consider you lucky to have it, of course, it's yours, so it's your decision (the benefit of remaining uncut).

Answer 7

Maybe after a split foreskin during sex will change your mind

Answer 8

Unless there is a medical or religious reason for doing so it would be better to leave it alone

Answer 9

Unless you have a medical reason or condition, dont do it.
You will actually lose some of the sexual sensations you currently have.

Answer 10

NO! There can be health problems.It should have been done when you were a baby.You are to old for that now.
