This was the scenario for myself during my early teens.  At first, I was able to expose only the very tip - about the diameter of a button - when erect.  With stretching and time (this took my teen years) I was able to retract my foreskin so that the glans was fully exposed during erections.  It just takes time and stretching.  Be thankful that you are not circumcised. Enjoy.

I'm uncircumcised and I've never really experienced that problem, however many uncircumcised guys have that very sensitive glans (penis head) issue.  There's a really easy way to handle this.\n\nSimply retract your foreskin all the way and expose the head to the air for a few minutes a day.  This will slowly (like days to weeks) desensitize it a little, and eventually even touching it won't feel uncomfortable.  As long as you have your foreskin it'll always be sensitive, but in this way you can train yourself to become desensitized a little to it so it's easier to deal with.\n\nProbably the last thing you'll want to do is get circumcised.  Yes, it'll solve the sensitivity issue, but for that month or two right after being circumcised all you'll feel is that sensitivity all the time.  It can be very uncomfortable and after a long period of time, when it becomes really desensitized, you may want some of that sensitivity back.  The best advice is again to train yourself to deal with it slowly over the course of days or weeks.  It's better in the long run and you have full control over how much you can stand at any given time.

Don't circumcise... There are lifelong negative consequences to circumcision. Most people don't realize that it permanently removes a huge amount of sexually erogenous tissue - it's not just skin that's being cut off. No person in the world would want less sexual feeling. \n\nThe foreskin also provides the penis with a natural lubrication as well as fantastic gliding action that is extremely comfortable for the female partner. A circumcised man has to thrust long and hard to achieve orgasm. Because of circumcision, the head of his penis is somewhat desensitized and leathery like the elbow, not smooth and moist. The uncircumcised man is aroused much more quickly so he only needs to thrust gently. Because he is thrusting gently he can remains close to the clitoris thereby allowing the woman to reach orgasm. The long hard thrusting misses the clitoris. \n\nIn addition there is an extreme pleasure producing area on the inner foreskin known as the ridged bands. This zone stretches out and unfoldes to cover the shaft of the penis during an erection, adding even more pleasure. \n\nWhen the penis is flaccid, the foreskin also protects the corona of the penis head, which is extremely sentitive to touch. It's like, if you have a camera, you put a lens cover over it to protect it from scratches and abrasion. Well if you have something as sensitive as the head of the penis, you want that to be proteted too.   \n\nMost importantly, circumcision violates your son's right to decide for himself how he wants his penis to be. Why do that? There are many circumcised men who would rather not have been circumcised.\n\nGo with the natural penis, it's a much better penis...!

Hiya Kyle\nI got circumcised at 22. But I wanted to get it done, for the same reasons as you, when I was a teenager. I didn't because, also like you, I didn't wanna feel awkward with my parents. It was a mistake waiting: 1. by the time I got circumcised, my foreskin got so tight I needed to be, 2. when (much later) I did tell my parents they were fine about it and said that, if that's what I needed or wanted, they'd have paid for it earlier and 3. you get a better job done and it heals quicker the younger you are.\nIt's not particularly painful when healing up and, as other people have written to you, done under local or general anaesthetic anyway. A good idea is to wear briefs, rather than boxer shorts, for a while afterwards.\nI'm really happy that I'm now circumcised.\nGood Luck!\nNick

Wow - it is going to be really painful.  I had a friend and her son did it at the age of 10 - she said it was really painful for him.  I can't imagine a grown man.  It will not be any different in the sexual way.  The only difference is that the skin that covers the tip of the penis will constantly be exposed.  I have only seen an uncircumcised in books, but went through my anatomy class in college.

Nope. Actually, when you're not circumcised you require no lubricant as the foreskin acts as a sheath and the skin is pulled down upon penetration (leaving you looking, well, circumcised and more ably stimulated).

To be circumcised means to undergo circumcision, which, in males, involves the excision (or the removal) of the prepuce (or the foreskin) of the penis. For more details on female circumcision, you could refer to the following link\n\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/medical_notes/241221.stm\n\nCircumcision is either done due to medical reasons or as a cultural pratice.

Actually, the uncircumcised foreskin shields the tip of the penis from everyday friction with clothing, etc, which tends to desensitise it.\nThus, the uncircumcised penis is often a lot more sensitive, making sex a rather more intense experience.\nSome men find the stimulation is actually too much, leading to discomfort or premature ejaculation, though this is not the case for the majority.

ive done it and let me tell you it works you got to be patient.\n\nGlad you asked, there was someone else who asked that question. \n\nThere are quite a few restoration devices out there.\n\nWell some people wish they wasnt circumcised and thats why they seek restoration.

Dear Itsin ....\n\nYou are fortunate to have an uncircumcised penis.\n\nThis extra skin is called the "foreskin".\n\nNature put the foreskin there to protect the sensitive head.  This protection keeps the head sensitive so that sex is very pleasurable.  \n\nThe foreskin also prevents anything from touching the head and arousing you unintentionally.\n\nIt is a brilliant piece of engineering by nature.\n\nIt is important to clean underneath the foreskin, just like it's important to wash your body in other places.\n\nI recommend that the foreskin be kept, unless there is a clear health risk.\n\nYou are fine like you are.

To be clear, most men are uncircumcised.  It's just here in the U.S. and much of the Middle East where they circumcise regularly...

Sorry, Im circumsized. Why's it so bad that we are "poor unfortanates mutilated at birth?" I know they get rid of some of the sexual nerve endings from the forskin during a circumscision, but since we've never had sex using the whole part of a penis, we won't know what it would've felt like.

My friend got an circumcision Last year which he is in 10th grade at the time, he said it was the best thing, yes it will hurt more than if you would have gotten it when you were a baby but its not to bad he said, and its only like a problem if it gets infected and what not but if you take care of it you will be fine.

Circumcision is the removal surgically of the foreskin that covers the head of the male penis.

The same issues apply to circumcised as well as un-circumcised males. As long as they maintain personal hygiene (and aren't otherwise infected), there is no more danger of infection whether circumcised or not. \n\nAt the same time, uncircumcised males need to take an extra few seconds in the shower to pull back the foreskin when they wash.\n\nRegardless, if you are prone to urinary tract infections, you should try to get in the habit of peeing after intercourse. That can help keep infections down.

You can get circumcised whenever you want to. Just not sure if your health insurance will pay for it? You could start by calling the insurance company and asking if they cover it, then go to your family doctor who could probably refer you to a surgeon.
