Getting circumcised in a few weeks

I’ve dealt with phimosis my whole life (can’t retract foreskin at all) I’ve never had sex and I’ve been insecure about it for as long as I can remember, I don’t think it’s the main cause of my ed but I’m hoping getting rid of it will give me more confidence and help me feel more comfortable in the bedroom, I have a lovely new girlfriend who I tried and failed to have sex with as I lost my erection a couple weeks ago.

I’ll have about 9 weeks altogether before I’m fully healed and can try again so during that time I’m abstaining from porn and masturbation, just hoping it’s long enough to fix my brain as I think I might have porn addiction.

I was circumcised last year as like you my foreskin was tight. It has opened my penis up to sensations that are amazing.

Just a word of advice the recovery process is a painful one. For me about 4-6 weeks after the op. I was getting hard and Jesus the pain. All I could think about was masterbating which you can not do till your recovered.

Wear loose fitting trousers and underwear. Do not wear jeans as they hurt.
Some people say briefs help as it stops the moving around but I found them to be too compacting.

Be honest with you work as your mobility will be reduced

Yeah I’m looking forward to getting it over and done with but can’t say I’m looking forward to the recovery! Also yeah I’m hoping the break it forces me to take from masturbating and wanting to get hard will help in the meantime with my psychological ed issues

Totally agree with previous comment - it’s a game changer in terms of sensation and simply being pain free…but the recovery isn’t fun…but it’s worth it in every aspect…
I found Vaseline helpful for protecting the head as it feels very sensitive at first…
Good on you for taking the step - you’ll never regret it!
