If you circumcised when you're an adult will it hurt and what do they do?!


Question: Usually pain is involved in the first two weeks or so, especially during erections since that stretches out the wound... and it is a wound around your most sensitive part. As for what they do; you can search for a circumcision video on Google.

If you have a tight foreskin, see this link:

Otherwise, research it well. It's a permanent (there's no going back) surgery.

Circumcision has become less common. Circumcision rates were as high as 90% back in the 1960s and 1970s (that's partly why today's adults are so... brainwashed, I supposed you could say, about thinking that circumcision is better) but they have fallen to as low as 14% in some states. Here are the statistics:

The USA is the last developed nation doing it to a large number of newborns without religious or medical needs. (Europeans, Latin Americans, Japanese, and most Australians, Canadians, and Asians don't circumcise):

Why?

There's pain involved, often why doctors don't want you in the room when it's done:

In a medical study, it was found that females are more likely to hit orgasm with an uncircumcised man:

The lubricated foreskin (on the inside... like your eyelids) slides up and down during sex and masturbation to stimulate the head (which is why you don't hear of uncircumcised guys needing lube to masturbate).

Studies have found that circumcision reduces sensitivity (this article also mentions how it has lost popularity in the USA in recent times):

And despite being more sensitive, uncircumcised guys still last in the same six minute range (average) that circumcised guys do:

Circumcision makes masturbation more difficult:

Which makes sense, that's how circumcision was promoted in the USA:

Increases erectile dysfunction rates:

If too much skin is removed in circumcision, it can make the penis smaller since the penis needs some skin to expand during an erection:

Circumcision does not completely stop penile cancer. The American Cancer Society has already confirmed the myth that circumcision = no cancer.

If circumcision did stop penile cancer, then penile cancer would not be more common in the USA (most circumcised adults) than in some European nations, where circumcision is not practiced other than for medical/religious reasons.

And a new study found that circumcision does not reduce your chances to get HIV/AIDS. Unlike other studies, this one was done in a developed nation; the USA.

One word: OUCH.

(Note: use of capital letters to emphasise level of pain in aftermath of the surgery.)

Why would you want to..?!

It will hurt a lot less. Babies are usually in so much pain during circumcision that they go into shock. They do not use any sort of pain killers for the infants. The penis is smaller as well so the doctors usually don't do as good of a job.

For adults you will receive pain killers and it won't really hurt when they do it. It'll hurt a lot afterward as it heals though. The procedure is the same. They will wrap the foreskin around a metal ball and then take a knife and cut around the base of the metal ball.

Why you would voluntarily have yourself circumcised is a mystery to me though. Realize that you are going to lose a very large portion of your sexual pleasure from this. That is the reason people started circumcising to begin with. The intention was to remove the pleasure from sex to ensure that sex was only an act of reproduction and thus removing the sin from sex.

I agree, un-necessary circumcision spells un-necessary pain.

Only get it done if their is a medical reason that a doctor has referred you to get it done. Religious ones are carried out at birth.

In America it costs a lot of money as well

Adult males lose 15 square inches (40 square centimetres) of skin in circumcision, over half the skin of your penis. You lose the gliding action as it slides on itself during masturbation and sex. 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 foreskin 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 foreskin over the glans. Circumcised guys often have little or no movable skin left and are forced to masturbate using lube or rubbing dry, without the loose skin. There is no going back if you don
