Question 1

I'm 22 and just realized I have this phimosis condition because I can't retract the foreskin on my penis, whether it's normal or erect. I thought it was normal until I read about it online and talked to some friends. I'm really scared of having surgery like circumcision. Can you explain what causes phimosis and what my options might be?

Question 2

I'm really worried because while having sex with my wife, as soon as I went in, my penis started bleeding from the area where the foreskin is attached to the pee hole. Can you tell me what might be happening and what I should do?

Accepted Answer

I'm sorry to hear about this. Bleeding from the area where the foreskin is attached could be due to friction or irritation. It's important to keep the area clean and avoid further irritation. If the bleeding continues or you experience pain, it's advisable to consult a healthcare provider for a thorough examination and proper guidance.

Question 3

I'm having trouble pulling back the foreskin on my penis, and it's causing a really uncomfortable tightness at the tip during full erections and when trying to insert. On top of that, I'm dealing with premature ejaculation. Should I be seeing a urologist for this, or is a general surgeon the better option? Also, is there a connection between this issue with my foreskin, phimosis I think it's called, and premature ejaculation?

Accepted Answer

You should consult a urologist, as they specialize in genital and urinary tract issues, including phimosis (difficulty retracting the foreskin) and premature ejaculation (PE); while phimosis and PE can coexist, they are not directly related, but treating phimosis through circumcision, preputioplasty, or frenuloplasty may help alleviate discomfort and tightness, which could indirectly improve PE symptoms, and a urologist can assess and address both concerns.
