After a circumcision, glans sensitivity is common and usually subsides within 1-2 months. While some individuals may experience increased sensitivity after the procedure, this is typically a temporary phenomenon

I'm married for a year now, and we're thinking about having kids. But I've been struggling because I haven't ejaculated even once in the past year. I also lose my erection when the vagina gets wet, and it feels like there's no hold during intercourse. I'm really confused about what's going on. Could it be because I haven't been circumcised? I'm looking for some advice.

You may be experiencing erectile dysfunction and difficulty with ejaculation. Circumcision is unlikely to be the cause of these issues. I recommend you consult with a doctor to rule out any underlying medical conditions. In the meantime, you can try medication like Viagra (sildenafil) to help with erectile dysfunction. Additionally, you can consider using medications like Clomiphene to improve sperm production and ejaculation.
