Getting circumcised in a few weeks

Iā€™ve dealt with phimosis my whole life (canā€™t retract foreskin at all) Iā€™ve never had sex and Iā€™ve been insecure about it for as long as I can remember, I donā€™t think itā€™s the main cause of my ed but Iā€™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.

Iā€™ll have about 9 weeks altogether before Iā€™m fully healed and can try again so during that time Iā€™m abstaining from porn and masturbation, just hoping itā€™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 Iā€™m looking forward to getting it over and done with but canā€™t say Iā€™m looking forward to the recovery! Also yeah Iā€™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 - itā€™s a game changer in terms of sensation and simply being pain freeā€¦but the recovery isnā€™t funā€¦but itā€™s worth it in every aspectā€¦
I found Vaseline helpful for protecting the head as it feels very sensitive at firstā€¦
Good on you for taking the step - youā€™ll never regret it!
