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.

View allI've had bxo for about 15 days now and I'm really worried. Can you tell me what treatment options are available? Is this condition curable or will I need surgery?
Your symptoms can be relieved by the use of steroid creams or ointments. Bland moisturisers help to soften and protect the skin. In men, tightening of the foreskin will often respond to steroid ointments; if not, a circumcision may be worth considering. In children, circumcision is usually required

I'm dealing with an issue where the head of my penis is really sensitive, and it's leading to premature ejaculation. I'm looking for advice on how to address this sensitivity problem. What's the best way to manage this?
One treatment option you can try is using a topical anesthetic cream containing lidocaine. You can apply a small amount of cream to the sensitive area about 10-15 minutes before sexual activity. This can help reduce the sensitivity and delay ejaculation. One brand you can look for is Stud 100, and the recommended dosage is to apply a small pea-sized amount as needed. Remember to wash it off before intercourse to prevent transfer to your partner.

When my penis is normal size I can pull the foreskin back easily but when it gets bigger it hurts to retract it is this normal or should I use some kind of lubrication instead of surgery
If foreskin pain occurs during erection, use of steroid creams or stretching may help; surgery is considered if unresolved.
