Patient's question:
My husband has excessive foreskin, and now he has to wear condoms during intercourse. Because he used to have a gynecological disease, it really makes me sad. I want him to get circumcised, but my husband is unwilling to go. Can excessive foreskin be left uncut?Doctor's answer:
To prevent the recurrence of balanitis and to improve the smoothness of normal life, especially sexual life, for men, excessive foreskin is not a disease. If it does not affect normal sexual life, as long as the penis is cleaned frequently, hygiene is paid attention to, and appropriate local lubricants are used as much as possible before sexual activity to prevent tissue damage that may be caused by excessive foreskin, surgical removal is not necessary. After all, this is a matter with both advantages and disadvantages, and it is better to choose according to the actual situation.
