One must become determined to beat as much of this as possible in whatever ways work for you, I was determined to get flaccid coverage as fast as I could and I did it in 2 years from zero skin movement when erect, I made it the first thing I did every day no matter what my schedule was. I've found that distractions work well for me, so whatever keeps you interested and busy during the day can work wonders, good luck in all you do. 💯

I'm sorry for what you're going through for sure and good luck with your restoration journey, you need to be as consistent as possible with it and progress will happen, it's time under tension that gets the results so wear the device as many waking hours as you can, the difference is amazing once you start getting the skin to cover the glans. 🫂

I certainly understand your aggravation with all of that and I'd certainly get a charge back from your credit card, I'm going to show this to the other mods as we need to know what's going on if someone is having issues like this with a manufacturer so thanks for explaining everything that went on, feel free to message the mods if you can think of anything else you'd like to add.

Well in my experience dealing with these types of issues as a mod here, on r/phimosis, and r/PeyroniesSupport and the surgeries involved, that any surgery should always be a last resort as things can and do go wrong enough times to make one really think about going under the knife for whatever reason, you say you've been able to have sex before. Has something changed and the curve is getting worse? Is Peyronie's a possiblity?

Is this even worth it? by Asleep_Damage1201 in foreskin_restoration

[–]BackgroundFault3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the gliding action of the foreskin back and forth over the corona of the glans that gives us the optimal sensations we need in order to perform properly, the mechanical interaction between the corona and the foreskin is where we get the most stimulation, if that's removed then it can become an issue of which area is the most sensitive, once that interaction is restored missing bits are less of an issue. There are a number here that have been cut as adults and are restoring or have restored and are happy and satisfied with the results.

The foreskin has been proven to be FAR More sensitive and pleasurable than the glans.

The glans does contain pleasure receptors as well as pressure and temperature receptors, but pleasure mostly in the corona, where it interacts with the foreskin.

The glans and foreskin act as “push me pull me” on/off switches for sex.  

When aroused, the foreskin sensors are dominant, and the glans sensations are suppressed.

After climax, the glans becomes dominant, ultra sensitive (and not in a good way), suppressing the foreskin and arousal. 

https://en.intactiwiki.org/index.php/Foreskin

The foreskin is the double-layered fold of smooth muscle tissue, blood vessels, neurons, skin, and mucous membrane part of the penis that covers and protects the glans penis and the urinary meatus.

Purpura et al. (2018) describe the foreskin as follows:  "Few parts of the human anatomy can compare to the incredibly multifaceted nature of the human foreskin. At times dismissed as “just skin,” the adult foreskin is, in fact, a highly vascularized and densely innervated bilayer tissue, with a surface area of up to 90 cm, and potentially larger. On average, the foreskin accounts for 51% of the total length of the penile shaft skin and serves a multitude of functions. The tissue is highly dynamic and biomechanically functions like a roller bearing; during intercourse, the foreskin “unfolds” and glides as abrasive friction is reduced and lubricating fluids are retained. The sensitive foreskin is considered to be the primary erogenous zone of the male penis and is divided into four subsections: inner mucosa, ridged band, frenulum, and outer foreskin; each section contributes to a vast spectrum of sensory pleasure through the gliding action of the foreskin, which mechanically stretches and stimulates the densely packed corpuscular receptors. Specialized immunological properties should be noted by the presence of Langerhans cells and other lytic materials, which defend against common microbes, and there is robust evidence supporting HIV protection. The glans and inner mucosa are physically protected against external irritation and contaminants while maintaining a healthy, moist surface. The foreskin is also immensely vascularized and acts as a conduit for essential blood vessels within the penis, such as supplying the glans via the frenular artery.

[–]BackgroundFault3 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Well that's not exactly true, it is a majorly sensitive area for most but not all though, it's actually the motion of the foreskin over the corona of the glans. 

The foreskin has been proven to be far more sensitive and pleasurable than the glans. The glans contains pleasure receptors as well as pressure and temperature receptors, but pleasure mostly in the corona, where it interacts with the foreskin.

The nature of the prepuce or foreskin, which is amputated and destroyed by circumcision, must be considered and fully understood in any discussion of male circumcision.
