So I finally talked to my parents about circumcision and stuff, but I've decided I don't want to get circumcised. However, there's an alternative surgery you can get for tight foreskin, right? It separates, or detaches the piece of skin that connects from your foreskin to your penis head or something. What's that surgery called? I believe it's my best solution to a tight foreskin.

Even if you do nothing, it's always good to practice being open with them and talking about what's on your mind.

Based on my own experience, there are alot of alternatives here, circ being available, but also the most radical. As I said previously, it might be best to meet with the doc and try some of the other remedies first, and if they don't work, to then examine your options.

Good luck at the doc, and keep us posted! (my fingers need the exercise!).

Nah, circumcision isn't the only alternative. There's not many surgeries that you can get for that I know of - but you can go to the doc, and he'll give you tips. There's some creams you can get that can loosen up the foreskin and there are ways you can nudge back the foreskin in the shower so that you can fully retract it.

Good luck at the doc's :D

It's really hard/random to get circumsized as a not baby.
Wjy, though, it makes no difference whatsoever.
