Glans peeling

[Jake18]

I've been retracted for almost four weeks now and my glans is peeling.

Is that normal?  Is that the start of the keratinization process?

Hey Jake
How does it look like after four weeks?
That's normal. The thin skin peels off and keratinization takes place

Yes and you feel a difference as well

Mine started to peel after a week or so, but wasn't uncomfortable.

Afterwards, the glans looked dry, like a circumcised glans, and was not sensitive to touch, other than when rubbing on fabric during exercise.

I have stopped skinning back before, and the glans returned to normal, and when I've tried skinning back again, I've had the peeling again.

When I first started keeping my foreskin retracted it was very uncomfortable for my head to rub all day long but I have noticed since it started peeling that uncomfortable feeling is getting less and less.

Yeah I think that sounds pretty normal - that's what happened to mine.
