Tight foreskin

[Sevun]

Hello there.
I was wondering (for you uncut guys out there) if when you remember what age your foreskin loosened, allowing you to fully retract the skin.
Mine is still tight and I can only retract halfway up to half of my penis head even though I've tried stretching it back like my doctor told me. Any ideas what to do or any similar experiences?

What is your age?
I remember my foreskin starting to separate from the head around 12 but fully separated at 13 when I started masturbating. When you say you can retract only half way up to your penis, do you mean just your head?

I think if I remember correctly mine separated when I was between 5 & 6 years old.
There are ointments and salves and creams to help loosen your foreskin that you can get from your doctor. When you stretch try doing in in the bath or shower and stop at the point where it hurts and try stretching a few times a day.

Yep, just the head.
I heard that overstretching to the point it hurts reduces elasticity of skin and thus may make foreskin tighter.

I am not able to retract my foreskin at all. I have pinhole phimosis but I don't want to get circumcised.

No I don't remember. What I do remember is that by the time I started to be more interested in my dick at the start of puberty I was able to pull it back enough to expose the head.

From reading, though, there can be two reasons it might not go back: adhesions, where the foreskin has not fully separated from the glans, and the ridged band at the end of the foreskin being too tight.

I heard that overstretching to the point it hurts reduces elasticity of skin and thus may make foreskin tighter.

If you were to force to the point you put tears in it then it then those tears might heal up with scar tissue which is less stretchy than normal skin. That would reduce the stretchiness of the skin and make it harder to go back.

But being stretched is the normal way skin grows to accommodate some other body part that is growing so, for example, your legs grow primarily from the bones growing. That then increases the tension on the skin which then grows until the original amount of tension is restored.

So the trick is to apply some tension but not so much that you tear it. Start gently and see how it works. Steroid cream can make it stretch faster.

Mine was fully retractable at 13 after using steroid cream to loosen the phimosis at the tip

try to pull it back when your penis is soft and maybe in shower with warm water , mine loosen at around 11

[MasonBA]

i was around 8 I think.

[justa16yearoldaussie]

i got mine back maybe at like 10-11 but its different for everyone, you may have phimosis though.

Got circumcised 30 something days ago for the same reason.

Think this is what i have too, i can retract a bit if I'm super horny and lots of pre-cum but goes back to normal then...

I was able to pull my foreskin back for as long as I can remember. I always pull it back before peeing and when washing. I am sure my parents taught me to do that at an early age (before I can remember).

I remember I could fully retract my foreskin when I was 9.

Same here

It was rather late for my- I think I must have been 14 or 15 back then. I tried pulling it back (even just a little) every time I was showering or taking a piss and eventually it got looser and now I can fully retract without any problems. Also, I’ve seen exercises online where you try to pull your foreskin away from your tool and try to make it as long as possible so the frenulum gets looser and later will allow for smooth retraction. If you have any questions feel free to message me though:)
