Circumcision and Premature Ejaculation:
- Circumcision is not a reliable or recommended treatment for premature ejaculation (PE).
- PE involves ejaculating sooner than desired and can have complex causes, including psychological and medical factors.
Understanding Circumcision:
- It involves the surgical removal of the foreskin, often for medical, cultural, or religious reasons.
- Scientific evidence does not support it as a cure for PE.
Effective Treatments for PE:
- Behavioral techniques and counseling.
- Topical anesthetics and medications prescribed by a healthcare professional.
Recommendation:
- Consult a urologist or sexual health specialist for personalized advice and treatment options. Avoid considering circumcision solely as a solution for PE without professional guidance.

I have stage 1 phimosis where I can pull back my foreskin when flaccid but not when erect. Intercourse isn't an issue, but I'm unsure if I need treatment. Some suggest surgery while others recommend coconut oil and exercises. What's the best approach for this should I treat it or leave it alone?
