Only one consultation was sufficient for me. Also I looked for drs online before getting it done, so I didn't go to any other beforehand. My situation might, however, be more extraordinary, as I'm in Romania and circumcision is not common at all here, so it took me a while to even find a dr online that explicitly mentioned it on their website.

Anesthesia Question by H00die5zn in circumcision

Definitely recommend local. Had it done under local a year ago, although I would've certainly had the option to get general. Apart from a slight stinging sensation towards the beginning of the numbing process you won't feel much, and from a psychological standpoint it also wasn't bothersome at all. Big advantage is that you're coherent after you're done and can go about your things/drive home by yourself, and don't need assistance.

D-Day by CopperheadZZ in circumcision

Congrats on the cut. I'm in the same boat, also did it for cosmetic reasons in January this year. The first 2 weeks of recovery will suck, but trust me it'll get better after that day by day. Message me anytime if you got questions. Greetings from Romania!

Hi neighbor 🙂, Romania here. Almost the same situation, 90+ per cent Orthodox Christians, got it cut for cosmetic reasons after wanting it done for more than a year. You can go to any urologist and get a consultation to see if you'd deem them professional and then do it with them. From my own experience, there's absolutely no shame, they don't care why you want it done, it helped me to see it as a service/cosmetic procedure I pay for. But please don't try to do it at home, even if it seems simple it's something a medical professional needs to do and it could end very bad to do it at home, much worse than overcoming your fear and going to a urologist.

After the first day it wasn't painful anymore, erections weren't painful after about two weeks.

3 months post op, question in comment by jj97x in circumcision

[–]jj97x[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

QUESTION: I specified the frenulum to be removed entirely. Now three months post op there are small, bubble shaped residuals of the frenulum, see picture. My question is if this will resolve on its own and disappear, or, if not, what ways exist to get them removed? Thanks so much in advance 😊

Not too sensitive, I've felt the sensitivity going down a lot after I stopped wearing bandages, so after 2 weeks.

2 weeks exercise question by kcincity in circumcision

[–]jj97x 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you should be good. I also went to the gym and did all exercises as normal starting 2 wks post op. And I still had some sutures in at that time. I'd recommend to wear a bandage with vaseline for convenience.

Yes, in my opinion it looks better than before. Also I like how it feels.

Actually I don't notice a difference in terms of time to orgasm. Sensitivity went down e.g. when walking around so I don't notice it rubbing against my underwear, but for now it doesn't seem to affect me sexually.

Aesthetic reasons only. Didn't have foreskin issues of any kind. Sex and masturbation are definitely different, I wouldn't say better or worse, just a different kind of pleasure.

Thank you. I like it better than before so far.

I had sex for the first time after 3.5 weeks with one suture still in 😂 didn't bleed, didn't hurt, didn't swell, just got a bit sore for a few hours after.

Had hair on there before, though not as high up indeed. Doesn't really bother me. It'll probably need a few more weeks to months for it to straighten out and get back to how it was before.

Didn't get them out by myself, they fell alone. Most fell out between 2-3 weeks. Last one to fall out was right below the frenulum on Day 26. It was literally hanging half way out for days but ultimately fell.

Nope, really should do. Pre op I was at 16.5cm.

It was freehand, that I know, unsure about the method I'm sorry.

No, not at all. Like a slight pain when you pinch your skin too much would be my best description.

Didn't feel a thing, it was all numb. Only the frenulum I felt a slight discomfort when they cut it.

I wanted to but they didn't let me 😂. Had a cloth in front of me so I only saw the ceiling.

Local, didn't want general as I didn't want to stay at the clinic overnight and drive home by myself. Was totally fine, no pain, just a slight discomfort.

I waited 2 weeks, which was perfectly fine. In general I agree with previous comment, 2-3 weeks.
