More about lost sensitivity

Just as an example, and I give you guarantee that this is an accurate statement, last time I made love to my wife she didn't have to touch my glans (just the outer skin), we made sweet slow grinding love, and I had a full-body orgasm the moment she demanded me to finish. It's the discovery of paradise man, thanks to restoration.

Thanks for the words of encouragement man, it really gives me hope. It's frustrating WANTING to do something, but being UNABLE to do it.

About six months ago, out of shear desperation, I started pulling on what remained of my skin while in the bathtub. Only a few months later did I learn of "foreskin restoration." I managed to increase the slackness of the skin somewhat, and have improvised two home-made devices to stretch it. I must just persevere.

Thanks :-)

I read this thread a few weeks ago and I wanted to chip in my experiences with premature ejaculation, sensitivity, et al. As I was writing, I realized how I was not really adding much more than fluff to the conversation. I thought about it and I think that the crux is that circumcision causes dysfunction. Start with the ideal as God made it: a couple with perfect health, perfect bodies, perfect individual emotional/mental status, and a perfect relationship. The sex would be perfect. The function of everything down to the penis would also be perfect.
This world is not perfect. There are emotional troubles, stresses, health problems, relationship difficulties and more, all of which cause dysfunction. Circumcision of a healthy penis takes what is basically perfect in form and function and makes it imperfect: dysfunctional. The world is full of things that try to cause dysfunction and circumcision is one. It is always some combination of things causing trouble. Sometimes, it is more the external; other times, it is more internal; other times still, it is more the result of the scar that signifies that you once had a perfectly formed penis. How much each influence factors in depends on the person and instance. I think that circumcision is always a significant factor for cut men, but it is not necessarily always the main factor and certainly not a recognized factor for most people.
Making the shaft skin tight affects the remaining nerve receptors. The combination of the remaining stretch receptors that are constantly drawn tight and the lack of input from the missing receptors causes the brain to experience sex improperly. Sometimes it causes PE, anorgasmia, or dissatisfying feelings. I have experienced all three and I attribute the vast majority of incidents almost completely to circumcision because it made my penis significantly physically dysfunctional (and the other aspects of my life have usually been in good order).
From my experiences with restoration, I have some hope that it will restore some function to my penis and diminish the above problems. I doubt that I will be more sensitive; I think that I will just feel more like God made us to feel (improved quality). I hope to become more functional.

Thanks for that, it's much appreciated！

First, the decision to circumcise a child is usually made by a very young adult with the reccomendation of a senior doctor. Most of us have learned over the years that doctors are not the best at giving advise, just at providing what is the current so called normal information. When it comes to circumcision they provide very bad advise and young adults have no one else to discuss it with. That is why I was circumcised and that is why my son was. I regret the decision for both of us, but can't change it.

Second, I have been restoring for a few months now and have full flaccid coverage. When I started all I wanted was to look normal. I am well on my way to that goal. I believed, like the doctors have always told us, that there is no difference in sensitivity. What an outright lie. After several weeks of keeping my glans covered either with the DTR or a retainer all the time I was totally surprised one day in the shower. I have a shower with a strong stream of water. For years I have had the same water spray. For the first time it was painful to feel the water stream on my penis head. I couldn't believe it was just the water hitting my head that was hurting me. The difference in sensitivity was very noticable. Thats when I realized how much we have been lied to. If you have always been circumcised you have no idea what you are missing. I now know the difference and the increase in sensitivity is so much that I can't believe it and it was so unexpected. If I had known about the increase in sensitivity I would have restored for that alone. What a huge bonus. Just looking natural would have been enough. If you haven't started restoring, start. If you are wondering if you should have your son circumcised, don't.

I will discuss this with my son when I have gotten a little further along. It will be difficult to discuss something like this with him, but it is too important to let my being uncomfortable to get in the way of his well being. I have been robbed of so much pleasure over the past years that I want him not to be deprived. I will tell my children how important it is to stop the mutilation of my grandchildren to be. I only wish someone would have told me so I could have helped my son. Please remember that parents are just very young people and do the best they can. I forgive my parents for their mistake. I can only council as many people as I can to stop this mutilation and hope we can someday stop circumcision for all.

It's amazing how such an obvious, evident fact can be so utterly denied by these so-called professionals of the human body, isn't it? How is it that resensitization of the glans area is not seen by the professionals as the primary treatment for men with anorgasmia or erectile problems? Such a scandalous shame!

I could prevent the mutilation of my two sons, but it's necessary to go further and make sure that they understand that future generations must be protected from mutilation too.

I've been quite suprised by some guys I've met at Thunders Place enlargement forum. Sometimes there is a long thread about a guy who is anorgasmic in intercouse and I'll chime about how he should consider restoration, and he'll reply that he's not circumcised.

I'm not going to imply that all cases of anorgasmia are caused by reduced sensitivity, but reduced sensitivity certainly causes it. Proof is that chemical desensitizers are used as an extreme measure to delay or avoid orgasm.

I think that the fact that even some intact men may find it difficult to reach orgasm at some point in their lives only makes the argument against mutilation stronger. Imagine: if this poor guy is yet having a hard time climaxing when he's intact, what would happen to him if he'd loose half of his equipment?

You know, I heard that while we'll get back a great deal of our sensitivity back by restoring ourselves, we won't get it all back. (mostly b/c of the loss of the frenulum during circumcision) So my question is, just how much of our lost sensitivity WILL we get back?

I've been tugging for about a month now so it's a long way off but I was just curious.

I noticed a lot of increased sensitivity after 4 to 6 weeks and it is hard to describe the exact percentage, but it was in the shower that I noticed the difference. Direct shower spray on my head is painful and I never even noticed it before. I kept my head totally covered either with the DTR or a retainer for the first 2 months. That kept all friction away. If there is any friction it may take longer to get the sensitivity back. I am sure everyone is a little different so all I can say is that I am very pleased and if I even dreamed that I would get even a small amount of sensitivity back I would have started restoring immediately. I just believed the doctors and thought it was a myth. I have full flaccid coverage now and don't use a retainer much. I am still after more erect coverage an have a ways to go, but I am totally committed to it now.

being 100% intact

Men should not be robbed of their right to have a foreskin.

I rediscovered The ridgeband leaving it ignored over the years since it hurt to pull it back all the way , in the beginning of the year I did something about it.
Over a week or so I started stretching it out and getting less and less pain from it.

The orgasm can get so intense I black out for a few seconds and my body goes limp..
I still have my Vcard the blacking out thing has me worried a bit since I do not want my 220pound self smashing someone.
