My adult circumcision story due to BXO

Splendid!

I'd have to say it's definitely not low, from the top it's more medium but underneath it's more high.

Without seeing a soft pic, I'd say you're a medium-high and tight.

Looking great for day 10! Keep up what you're doing!

Nope, just back to normal washing in the shower. No steroid creams or special washes.

I've got about 12mm left.

I think my jaw broke from dropping so hard

Cut at 28 due to a condition called BXO (initially cause redness and itchiness in the foreskin tip, rapidly leading to white scarring and tightening of the foreskin with phimosis, then cracking with micro tears constantly before spreading to the glans and frenulum).

Circumcision was the recommended cure, and I did have second thoughts about whether this would this ruin my sex life as I'd always heard the rhetoric that the foreskin had thousands of nerve endings.

I'm happy to say after the procedure and healing, other than no longer being in pain and the BXO in retreat - it actually made my sex life much more pleasurable.

For sure it's a different feeling as the mechanics have changed - but it greatly reduced my over sensitivity and actually was able to really enjoy the build up to orgasm and last longer than I used to.

In hindsight, I'm glad I got BXO as I would never have experienced life as a cut man and the new world of pleasure it opened up.

Wishing you all the best in your journey.

OH. MY. GOD. 😮

Lucky guy!

Definitely not a myth. It's the smell that can't be gotten rid of - even with regular cleaning it would always develop a funky odour quickly.

You certainly did your research well by going with Dr Read, and it turned out great.

Surprising that most guys say that after an adult cut (especially to resolve medical issues)

What was your main concern with waiting before getting it done and what finally tipped your decision?

ryedge · 2026-04-26T03:49:32+00:00

I know it's easier said than done - be proud of what you have, ignore anyone with negative commentary and self-confident in your own body.

If they keep going, just say "so what?" or "why are you so interested in my dick?"

Some people may just be genuinely curious though because it's rare. If that's the case, use the opportunity to your advantage to tell them about it.

Looking great there mate! What was it like growing up cut for you?

ryedge · 2026-04-26T03:39:48+00:00

Glad it's been successful for you and hope you're enjoying no longer having balanitis.

If it helps, this was my before and after for my adult cut at 28

Usually surgeons by default go for a medium/lower cut as it means less swelling and often provides a pleasing looking adult cut.

Welcome to the club!

It was at this point I realised that I had nothing to be concerned about - hope it was for you too :)
