I'm just wondering if anyone's doctor has commented on their retracted foreskin. I have an appointment with my doctor coming up soon, and I was wondering what to expect, if they'll say  anything to you regarding your foreskin retracting.

I had my annual medical last Saturday morning and decided to stay skinned back. My doctor rarely asks me to pull down my underpants but this was one of those times! I expected a stony silence of a criticism but the doctor asked my why I was keeping my foreskin pulled back. I explained it was my own choice and felt quite comfortable. He nodded and wished me luck! At least he did not have to ask me to pull back so he could check my glans!

My doctor told me it's completely normal to be pulled back as long as i enjoy it.

He told me that "It's not a bad thing to like being pulled back all the time neither a bad thing to be pulled over, it's a matter of preference"

I recall on the old Yahoo group someone raised this topic. One guy replied and said not only did his doctor approve, but told him that he was pulled back also and thought it was something to be recommended.

Interesting Pelagian! The doctor recommended it? Wow, that's not what I'd expect. But that's awesome!

never my regular gp but it was a (female) Urologist who suggested & showed me how to do this after I complained of a tight foreskin.

I have been at the urologist today for checkup. The only thing he commented was the size of my enlarged prostate, no word regarding retracted foreskin.   :(

As a teenager, I was definitely afraid to go to my doctor while retracted.  My doctor was a woman, and she always retracted the foreskin to check, but I was too nervous to enjoy it at the time...as I now would.

Went for a health check the other day which included an examination for testicular cancer. The doctor did not comment at all.

At my last general checkup I finally went in with my foreskin fully retracted, partly because it was with a new doctor who I hadn't seen before. My skin stayed back completely until she started the testicular exam. When she lifted my penis out of the way the skin slipped forward slightly over my glans. She looked surprised for a second and said "oh I didn't know you're actually not circumcised." I asked if it was okay to have the foreskin peeled back all the time and she said absolutely, as long as it didn't cause any discomfort or irritation. She sounded very friendly and said that it would likely be more hygienic that way because of the way bacteria reproduce under the foreskin, and that uncircumcised men are more prone to penile cancer if they don't maintain good hygiene. I told her it definitely made cleaning easier and she said that's good. She pulled the skin back fully as she was checking my glans and when she let go it was still rolled back behind the head. We were talking about something else as I started dressing and I felt the skin slide forward a bit since I had been soft this whole time. Before I pulled my boxers up I retracted it quickly all the way while she was still looking.

I actually had a urologist (Female) who showed me how to do this several years ago ( before I knew of this site) I saw her originally for a urinary infection & she noticed my foreskin was tight & I asked if she recommended circ. She said no, try this first!

I don't think a doctor has seen my penis since I started retracting. I always go covered, because I have the feeling most doctors here in France frown upon anything "circumcised" - I don't want another lecture about paraphimosis ... But so far they never checked.
Interestingly enough I had a doctor check down there in the 90's ... but that was in the US of A, and he couldn't suppress completely a small hint of disgust on his face  ;D I guess he didn't see a shriveled foreskin very often. That made my day  ;)

I visited urologist, ended up needing a catheter, when he went to pull skin over head it wouldnt stay, he  tried a few times, I started to swell, the young nurse had odd look, she may never have seen foreskin. Finally the doc said well i guess it has a mind of its own, i said yes it has a mind, thats why they call it the little head i guess.

Post by: dude101 on 2021-09-17 17:46:44
Wow. How did I miss this thread. LOL

The doc? Well let's see. When I was a kid I had this old ass 80+ yo that used to berate mum for not getting her boys cut. He even once said that he didn't know how pops could live with himself. He was a war vet himself so he didn't mind throwing his weight around. He was always very hard on her over my dick. Eventually we just stopped going to see him and we moved on being a military brat I've seen more "family docs" then most I suppose. Lucky some may say..

It somewhat amazes me that during that journey those old fucks never once took the time to actually check my foreskin and glans out. If they would have they would have realized my glans weren't revealing itself and the skin was not pulling back at all. Just a little pee hole. It was awful thinking back.

Then in my early teens. I guess around 14. I went into town and went into a clinic and seen a doc there. By this time I had known there was something wrong. The doc tried to retract the skin and looked at puzzled at first and then said "well, I guess we'll just cut it off - no harm done." Sure I used to cum but it was from rubbing the foreskin. Never ever seeing or touching the glans.

I left the clinic with an appointment for the next week with a parental slip to be signed and to how much money to pay for the procedure. I never took that appointment. I worked on it after that. Relentlessly to slowly, gradually, encourage the skin to stretch, and get over the head. It was hell and painful. I made sure to not push it too much and it took what feels like a year now before I finally able to see my glans. And the smegma build up was bad. I remember the first time touching the glans. It hurt like hell. But then it felt good.

That summer I met a girl in the woods! We would sneak around to each other's camps at night. And play around with each other. It was a group effort to get my skin back. She was so gentle and sweet. Sweet 16. She'd use her little fingers and glide them up under the skin and slowly eek the skin up. I think she was more successful than I was. As those raging erections would happen I could feel the skin starting to stretch. It was quite a feeling.

She liked to keep my skin back for long periods of time. One night she gave me a great BJ and then we fell asleep together. I woke up and her hand was on my dick and the skin was still back. She said she thought I should try keeping it like that and see if we could play the night next without having to deal with the tight foreskin - bingo.

That was 20+ years ago. The rest was history as they say. Keeping the skin pulled back just made sense. And the more I did it. The better the situation became. No knife needed. My sex life has been amazing and I've been with some amazing girls.

Now what does this have to do with a doctor's visit?

Well back to that. Since that time I've walked into any clinic and dropped my drawers in pride. Confident.

Without giving away too much info. After one trip to the ER. This wicked hot GP invited me back to her clinic after hours for some fun - she was married at the time. She said she LOVED my dick. I picked her up right off the floor. She was such an amazing fuck. She thought it was ballsy to walk around pulled back. All the uncut men she sees crying about their uncut dicks - she's like do something about it then? I drip just thinking about it.

Wo great story Dude101, must have been hella sex life ^^

As for me, this Thursday I'm getting a vasectomy and will remove any rings or tools, hoping that after 3 months my skin will stay pulled back during the surgery (full anaesthesia).
Maybe the surgeon will notice and I would be glad to explain him how greatly can pulling back resolve a lot of problems instead of cutting !
Also I had a frenectomy once and hoping he will accept to cut a tiny bit of skin hanging above my urethra, just bothering me aesthetically.

As I've said elsewhere on this forum, I have never had a comment or raised eyebrow.

A few years ago I had to have LDR brachytherapy for prostate cancer. This involved placing radioactive 'seeds' directly into the tumour. They went in through the perineum, so close enough!

When I came round everything had been put back exactly as I left it! I was catheterised, and when the nurse removed the tube next day she actually held my (still exposed) glans as she did what she needed to do, without comment (maybe just a smile).

I've shaved for years and years, and that has never been commented on either.

Not had a doctor say anything.
I think they see far to many odd things to worry to much about me being pulled back.
I did however get a comment from the piercer who did my PA.
When talking about after care, she said that as I kept my foreskin pulled back it would help.
And she thought it looked much better like that.

Well as for me I underwent a vasectomy one month ago. Before it I removed my ring, not that I lured for discretion but it is not a sterile thing and would not want a nosocomial infection !

Two weeks later I needed to see my urologist for some bruises and I kept my ring. He was very surprised, somewhat shocked ... He didn't know what it was. I explained it to him and he got it (hope it will trigger something in him, arouse his curiosity), hoping he will advise patients for this rather than drugs and surgery for being too quick in bed :)

He only advised me to be carefull no to put something too tight around the neck to avoid bedsores and complications.

On a slightly different note, when I was examined by our company doctor she commented on my circumcised dick and asked why it wasn't on my medical records.

I had a prostate reduction done using the Rezum procedure. They put in a catheter at the time, five days later I had the catheter removed. But after that any urine getting caught between the foreskin and the glans would burn. So I actually pulled back on the way home and what a relief. A couple days later when I went in for a follow up visit I mentioned it to the doctor, he asked to see it because he was concerned about infections or swelling, there was none so that was the end of it. Except for a urine analysis, that was negative so it was just the leukocyte in my urine causing the problem. Evidentially that will go away as it heals. I have been retracted the last 6 weeks just to keep the burn down. Which normally I only do part-time because of sensitivity loss. But except for a concern about swelling the urologist was fine with it.

I just went to the doctor and saw my penis retracted. He said nothing, so I told him I have been retracting 24/7 for a couple of monthes. He said it was ok, and that it was more higenik and avoids balanitis.
Didn't mention anithing against it.

Only once  - I had to have an emergency appendectomy and when I woke up, they had placed a catheter in my penis. The foreskin was over it, but when they removed the tube - they retracted it back. I hadn't retracted and cleaned for a few days due to the surgery and the nurse mentioned "you have a long foreskin so you need to retract to prevent smegma.". It was kinda weird as I knew that, and was obviously unable to clean normally in the hospital.

so at the age of 10-11 years, I had already worn my foreskin retracted at times. At 11, I had a youth examination at the doctor. When I took it off, my foreskin had covered the glans. The doctor examined me in general and also my penis, he pulled back my foreskin a few times and left the glans uncovered. When I got dressed again he told me to push the foreskin forward again, he had forgotten, normally this would happen on its own, but mine was probably a little tight.

When I was a little boy, my doctor told me to pull my foreskin back often. Or I should leave them behind longer

Test123 He said it could lead to swelling and paraphimosis. This was about 20 years ago and my foreskin was tighter and I was retracted for a month after a bout of yeast/balanitis. It looked like the shaft was thicker than usual to me over time. He was a little concerned so I stopped retracting. Things have changed after 20 years. My foreskin must be loose enough to not constrict my penis but tight enough to stay behind glans. Also, I'm much less sensitive into my third week and feel circumcised during the day and I stay retracted when sleeping and after sex and masturbation.
