Patient's question:
Is it certain that circumcision affects sexual function? Does it reduce erection hardness and sexual pleasure? There is a hard scar under the frenulum after circumcision, and I wonder if there are sutures inside. It has been a year since the surgery, and I feel my erections are not as hard as before. Is circumcision a form of harm to the penis?Doctor's answer:
Having problems after circumcision surgery, this will result in the situations you mentioned. The sensitivity of the glans after the surgery will be reduced, but the erectile function generally will not be affected. This could be a perception of reduced erections after the sensitivity decreases. For male patients, timely treatment can reduce the incidence of the disease. If not treated promptly, it can affect the overall health condition. Therefore, patients should seek timely and appropriate treatment, and maintain a regular lifestyle in daily life to avoid prolonged sitting.
